Tom and Ernie live in a house located in several places at once. On one side it’s an ordinary city studio apartment, and on the other it’s a small cottage standing on a forest meadow—and the third “exit” leads to a back street of a seaside town in Spain. Of course, this wasn’t accidental. Tom has magic. Ernie helps Tom collect and store “dreams,” and Tom, naturally, pays him for the work. However, living in a house full of magic isn’t exactly safe, and one morning Ernie wakes up to a cannon shot: one of their magical portals malfunctions, and a real tank from World War II rolls into their room.
