The Secret of Kells

An Irish monastery’s youngest apprentice trades marginalia for merlins. Tasked with illuminating a sacred book before the Vikings arrive, he slips past the abbey to borrow a magical crystal from the woods’ resident hellbeast. Everyone gets back before vespers, even the hellbeast.
