Long ago during the Age of Empires, the King of Echantharia set out on a quest to protect his people, and his kingdom, from the upheaval of the world around them.
In his success he was given a gift from The Oracle, that allowed him to see the many paths his Kingdom might take, depending on the choices he made. But when the
current King dies and power falls into the wrong hands, the Kingdom begins to suffer the greed and selfishness of a false King.
Living secretly in exile since he was a young boy, the prince knows that he is expected to one day reclaim the throne when he comes of age. But he doubts he has what
it takes to rule, and to retake a Kingdom that believes him to be dead would be no easy task. He is torn between his doubt and his duty, and with his mother and
sisters imprisoned in the castle, he feels it is only a matter of time before something has to be done, least he loose them too.
A young girl, the daughter of a Spinner Witch, wakes one morning to find her mother dead, and that she too now must face a terrible fate. Marked by the Spinner,
she frantically tries to find a way to escape her destiny. How can she possibly stop what is becoming of her when just staying hidden is hard enough? If someone
were to find out what she was she would certainly be condemned to death.
When the two strangers meet it seems their fates must be somehow intertwined, but what could a thief prince and a cursed peasant possibly have in common?
The clock is ticking for both of them; one to find their fate, the other to escape it.
