Young Sage spent most of his life in orphanages. Rebellious spirit, protest against discipline, theft and petty fraud are in his blood. But one day, the royal regent Conner comes for Sage and forcibly takes the boy with him. It soon becomes clear that Conner has conceived an incredible adventure - to find an orphan in the orphanages of Carthia who would be similar to Prince Jaron, who disappeared many years ago. Young Sage is among four candidates for this role. In two weeks, Conner will choose one of them and kill the rest.
