The Seeker follows the voice of destiny and leaves behind his old life in order to solve the riddle of the myth of the Sweet Fruit. After meeting a strange Forester who hands him a rare Sweet Fruit, The Seeker decides to scrutinize it’s mystery. These inquiries lead him to meeting wise men from all around the world who advise him to become a king and grow a royal garden. Doing so would guarantee unlimited supplies of the Sweet Fruit. The Seeker craves for power and the crown.

He sets of to travel to the farthest edge of the world, into the Fire Mountains where the legendary Blacksmith is supposed to live. He wishes to task the Blacksmith with the forging of the sharpest sword in the world which The Seeker needs in order to ful!l his mission. However, the stay in the Fire Mountains takes an unexpected turn. A prophecy reveales to the Seeker that dark forces are threatening his life and have already sent a shadow rider to put an end to The Seeker’s quest. He evades the rider by the skin of his teeth and comes to realise that there is no escape from dark forces.

Was the voice of destiny, which he had been blindly following from the beginning, nothing more than a poisoned chalice that he has been drinking from for years?
