The story begins with the siege of the Duke of Dyfed’s castle, where the king and a small band of adherents have fled after Huw Griffin attacks the royal palace. Two teenagers, Geraint and Bronwen, take the young prince to safety. The castle falls and after the murders of their parents and their aunt and uncle, it is left to the young Duke of Dyfed, and his sister Bronwen, to preserve the country of Rogarth for the weak boy-king. They struggle against Griffin, who wishes the throne for himself. Geraint slowly builds up an opposing army aided by his father’s old warrior chief, Owain. Justin Lord Rutland, a young man of similar age to Geraint, also comes to his aid and they become great friends. Justin, at first suspicious of Bronwen’s combat skills, comes to know and respect her and falls in love with the beautiful healer. They come to discover unknown powers, love and betrayal, while fighting for the new boy king.
