The confrontation between Ataya Trelane and the Sage of the Island Sarah is entering a decisive stage. Brandegart deliberately subjected himself to magic blocking in order to increase his own magical powers. At the same time, Ataya's period of strengthening her magic is coming to an end and her powers are returning to their original state. The forces are again unequal, and besides, Brandegart began an invasion of Kayt, recruiting the Lorngelds and ordinary people, promising them power, gold and land holdings. In order to have a chance to win the war, in which the stake is the Kite crown, the princess will have to find unexpected allies, reveal the secret of the korbal (the stone that blocks the magic of the Lorngelds) and find the weak point of the seemingly all-powerful Sage of the island of Sarah, who believes that he is the future king Kayta. Sorcerer King.
