Legend whispers of a sword that renders its bearer invincible—yet it carries a curse for those who seek it. King Kareed of Archeld seizes the blade from Bellandra’s king and returns with his daughter, Princess Torina, a prophetic crystal, and the captured prince Landen, who is to serve as her former slave. Torina frees Landen, who joins the king’s army and becomes a trusted friend. Suspicion grows when accusations of treason surface against the prince, threatening the fragile alliance. Torina’s crystal begins to reveal ominous visions, forcing her to decide whether to trust the prophecies and whether she can save her father and secure the kingdom’s future.
