With the help of the dead sorcerer Husia, raised from the grave by black magic, King Cromwell conquers the neighboring kingdom of Edan, annexing it to his lands. However, the usurper's warriors fail to reach Prince Talon, who flees to his father's former allies. Years later, the matured Talon returns to Edan in the guise of a mercenary, selling his magic three-bladed sword to all comers. At this moment, a rebellion is brewing in the capital of the former kingdom, led by the son of the former king's first minister, Mika, and his sister, Alana. But treachery puts the leader of the rebels in the hands of Cromwell. Talon agrees to help the rebels free their leader. But neither he, nor Cromwell, nor Alana suspects that the dead sorcerer Husia has not returned to the grave and intends to regain his former power.
