Synopsis

Crown Prince Grieg Arheeanron is doomed to an Eternal Sleep—just like every ruler before him. His bloodline carries a curse, a punishment from Death herself for an ancestor’s unforgivable mistake. But when Death’s Daughter steps from the shadows with a dangerous offer, everything changes. Solve her riddle, and the curse will be broken. Fail, and she will become his queen, condemning his kingdom to darkness forever. Determined to save his people, Grieg embarks on a perilous quest with his most trusted Masters. But time is slipping away, enemies lurk in every shadow, and magic long thought lost begins to stir. Amidst the chaos, he is drawn to a mysterious girl—one whose secret could either save his world… or shatter it completely. As the lines between friend and foe blur and the truth behind the curse comes to light, Grieg must choose: embrace the past’s sins or forge a new path. But can he solve the riddle before time runs out? Or will he lose his kingdom, his heart, and his very soul?
