The Quest boasts a world brimming with adventures

Disney+’s new original show is an interesting concept of storytelling accompanied by a mix of scripted and reality. The unparalleled storytelling of The Quest is based on a theme that pictures the fantasy world of unrivaled beauty and powerful magic, Everealm. Unfortunately, this mystical realm has been threatened by an evil sorceress for thousands of years.

To save the land, the noble Fates have summoned eight strangers known as Paladins as their last hope. These teenage girls and boys will have to work on an ancient prophecy to vanquish the Sorceress. Moreover, they can only free the land by unlocking the hero within them, which is possible after they put their mind, body, and soul to the test.

Also, throughout the eight-episode series, the Paladins will have to deal with all forms of mystical creatures and a sorceress intent on destruction and power.

As the show is an unseen concept, the show's executive producers, Jane Fleming and Mark Ordesky, revealed their thoughts in a press release:

"We're doing something magical that has never been done at this level. We're taking real people and putting them in a fully-realized fantasy story, conceived and built by incredible artisans in every department,"

They further continued:

"It's an immersive, real-life hero's journey for these eight normal teenagers, who transform before your very eyes. It's an exciting new form of storytelling."

Moreover, the producers also explained that they wanted everything on the show to look authentic. From production to costume design, they are deeply focused on their aesthetics so that teenagers and the audience feel immersed in the fantasy world.

Viewers can watch the premiere of the show on May 11 on Disney+.
