Now he has arrived in the neighboring mighty Empire as an honorary prisoner or hostage. The sophisticated intrigues of the imperial nobility threaten to drag him into a whirlpool of deadly events.

But the blood of the Danish rulers that flows in the veins of the young highlander will not allow the enemies to win.
