A young prince embarks on a quest to rescue a kingdom being poisoned.
The kingdom of Struggle is being lied to by an unseen enemy, "Liar." Lurking in the sinister forest, Liar attacks the minds of the villagers by whispering subtle thoughts into the villagers' minds at night. Liar's poisonous serpents advance against a people ignorant of their true enemy—an enemy trying to convince them to murder a righteous king. Liar has been warring against the kingdom of Struggle without opposition, and his greatest harvest is truth and freedom.
Poor, orphaned, and alone, the unlikely-named "Prince" sparks a rebellion. A beautiful, mysterious woman lays dying from Liar's wounds, but Prince is determined to rescue her. His brother is also marked for death, so Prince must save him too. Desperate, fear sends out tentacles of mistrust, and prince's hope is crushed beneath Liar's curse, "Everyone you love dies in the end."
For Prince to rescue a kingdom held captive to Liar, he must trust the King and the mysterious woman to help him. Embracing the impossible and praying for courage, Prince embarks on the quest and risks his very life...for love.
