Should a terki be considered a martyr if it gave its life for the pleasure of a princess?
Can true love stand against the most evil and most powerful sorcery in the universe?
It's Saturday, the happiest day of Ioreh’s life because he is able to hold and kiss the hands of his beloved. Ioreh didn’t know that tomorrow, Sunday, he will be sent to death by the princess he loves, which he will willingly accept.
The lumberjack-turkey hunter Ioreh wakes up to the most wonderful morning in his entire life. He is able to hold the hands of Princess Annica Marie and kiss them, too. Nothing can eclipse that bliss. Princess Annica Marie requests him a fine turkey for her 18th birthday, which is tomorrow.
After catching a talking turkey in the “Enchanted Forest,” the night is spent arguing with the bird that claims it has something the hunter would gladly have in exchange for its life – a necklace that has a pot for moonbeams, a bottle for dewdrops and a row of jars for memories. Ioreh declines. The most important thing for him is to get Princess Annica Marie her turkey.
But the following day, Princess Annica Marie unknowingly sends Ioreh to a mission – to kill a fire-breathing monster reptile and steal the source of the magic of its mother, the most powerful sorceress in the world. By doing so, he will pass the first stage of knighthood – the only way he’d see Princess Annica Marie again. But there is a very slim chance of success, if such chance exists.
Ioreh, the reluctant knight, with the help of the terki Tikoy, bends the law of nature and defeats the power of magic to accomplish the task.
However, instead of a hero's welcome, he is met with another challenge hurled by Prince Arrogan, from the lineage of finest Norse warriors, Princess Annica Marie’s most ardent admirer. It stumps him cold that he has to come up with something he is certain he does not have – a drop of a knight’s blood in his vein.
