A tale of mystery and adventure, of fear and generosity, of contamination and survival. A kitchen boy overhears a terrible royal quarrel. But who is this kitchen boy? Has he survived being chased by the king's men? Did he drown in the lake? And how, nearly 20 years later, is Prince Kim to find him and discover the secret about disasters and corruption in the country and his relationship with his father? Prince Kim promises his dying mother he will travel to find this former kitchen boy who knows about the catastrophes. Kim also has the task of curing his loved, but ailing friend, Princess Sagesse, of Beran who has also been affected by the curse.
