In The Rema Chronicles: REALM of the BLUE MIST, Tabby wants to uncover the truth surrounding her dad's demise. He died following research into a tree that leaks a mysterious mist in the forest. She unexplainably finds herself in Rema, a faraway land of magic and beauty that is constantly under threat. While Tabby seeks the truth about her father's disappearance, she meets a blue-haired boy named Philip. He is harbouring dark and dangerous secrets but has promised to help Tabby get home to Earth.
