A perfect partnership. But they aren't partners at all. Every generation falls into a struggle for power. No one can be trusted. Everyone is a spy. PRINCE BRYAN WILL BE THE NEXT KING - He doesn't care about the struggle for power. He would rather fish and hike, and his best friend is Dreya, the next High Priestess. They will rule together as a team. BUT EVIL IS ON THE MOVE A mysterious curse threatens the Fourth Era. To save the kingdom, Prince Bryan and Dreya must go on a quest that will take them to the land of night, a city in a lake, a pyramid built by ancient sun worshippers and finally, to face the most evil of all wizards. EVERY ADVENTURE IS PART OF A PUZZLE: Look for the clues as Prince Bryan and Dreya do everything they can to save their kingdom and solve an impossible riddle. And remember, nothing is as it seems.
