Oscar travels to the magic-rich nation of Tuldarr to break the hereditary curse that denies him an heir. King Calste, a master of the arcane arts, doubts that anyone can match the powerful spell of a witch. Nevertheless, he offers a vague clue and leads Oscar and his companions to a long-forgotten chamber beneath the palace.
There, Oscar encounters Tinasha, who has slumbered for centuries under a powerful enchantment. She is accompanied by her spirit companion Mila and a dragon named Nark—both of whom surprisingly quickly place their trust in Oscar. While the royal court of Tuldarr seeks Tinasha’s help to strengthen their bloodline, she focuses on unraveling Oscar’s curse. She insists that it is her duty to free him. Yet, her origins reveal that she is no ordinary mage: Centuries ago, she was celebrated as the “Witch-Killer Queen,” having allegedly defeated a sorceress sent to kill her.
Amid political tensions, practitioners of forbidden magic disrupt the kingdom by provoking wyvern attacks and leaving unsettling signs in the city. Tinasha confronts a disciple of a once-notorious sorcerer, hinting at deeper intrigues that extend beyond Tuldarr’s borders. With astonishing ease, she eliminates these threats, sparking concern in Oscar and his companions about the true extent of her power.
A brief peace returns during a festival, and Oscar invites Tinasha to explore the streets despite fears of further attacks. When hostile forces strike again, Tinasha’s swift intervention and advanced magic reveal her true identity as the legendary queen. Oscar demands honesty from her and distrusts her tendency to act alone. Gradually, Tinasha confesses her past and the person to whom she once owed her life, though she does not divulge every detail.
As tensions rise between rival factions, Oscar urges Tinasha to no longer face dangerous encounters alone. He offers her unwavering support, insisting on standing by her side rather than remaining in the dark. Their bond grows stronger, yet Tinasha continues to wrestle with the memories of a debt she could never fully repay.
