Since I don’t know what the story is about, I can only infer that this is from Witcher 3 where you hunt for the ghost of the well. Children and the man were consumed by the ghost.
This is a statement because it is a declaration of a
universal truth or idea. A plot summary usually tells a brief version of a plot
or a series of events; which usually mention characters and setting (time and
place where the events happened).
