The main event in the life of the young men of the kingdom of Angenor is the tauromachy - a duel with a mad six-horned bull. The winner receives money, glory and the right to join the elite part of the army - the royal cuirassiers. But the heirs to the throne undergo the ceremony for a different purpose - to show that they are worthy to wear the almandine crown - the crown of warriors. The death of the only heir to the throne during the ceremony leads to a fierce struggle for the crown between his father - King Ose, uncle Theabran and Princess Vechera - the eldest cousin, which is considered guilty of the death of the prince. The colorful canvas of the Chronicles is filled with bloody battles, palace intrigues, betrayal and cruelty. Kings, heirs, northern rulers of the Samrat, counts of the southern lands, wild mountain tribes - they will all be united by the desire to possess that same almandine crown.
