Overview
Christopher, a peasant weaver's son, is tired of his humdrum life and longs for adventure. Although nothing extraordinary often happens in his town, Christopher can't help but dream of a life beyond that of being a weaver. But one night, as Christopher is out at the pub with his friends, he meets a mysterious, beautiful young woman named Silvia who claims that she is a long-lost princess. Christopher isn't sure whether he believes Silvia's story, but he agrees to help her find the truth. With the help of the thief-lord-a local outlaw with a price on his head-Christopher sets out on a journey to discover the truth about Silvia's past and about the king, Silvia's supposed father. As Christopher travels, he meets Rodrick, a man who claims to be Silvia's real father, and quickly learns that not all is what it seems. When Silvia is taken prisoner by a duke, intent on becoming king himself, Christopher sets off again to rescue her. In the end, Christopher's biggest challenge might not be rescuing Silvia, but surviving long enough to find the truth.
