Comments: "Part One" Arzhur a knight is one that is down on his luck. You will find him pitiful. Now three old hags bestow on him a task. Youenn his squire has suspicions. The hags know what awaits Arzhur. Arzhur battles demonic creatures to reach Princess Islen. 
  The rescued Princess is a tough woman. 
  The Princess and Arzhur now travel together. As they journey to her father's castle their conversation tells as much about who her mother was and who Islen is. Islen's parents did fight over her. Her father listens to her and sends her off on her own. 
  Arzhur and Islen do bond on their travels. The more you learn of these two the more you will like them. You will find yourself hoping they both get what they want. These two are more than you are at first shown. Each has a darker side and each one is trying to be better then that dark side. 
  When the Knight meets the Princess's Father the King things do not go as either planned. The King is being influenced and not for the better. The Princess and the Knight find themselves on the run. These two are both now more then they would first appear to be. 
  "Part Two" Islen and Arzhur are fleeing the King and as they travel the two of them do get closer. As they enter Arzhur's land we find out more about him. Arzhur wants to become a better man while Islen is fighting between her good and evil sides. 
  All the drama going on leads to one huge battle as soldiers face creatures of darkness. Arzhur is a warrior on the battle field. The art does show the true aspects of battle. 
  The battle is way more then it starts out to be. The Princess and the Knight are in love and in the end that is all that truly matters.
