Count Tigrevurmud Vorn of the Brunish territory of Alsace is taken prisoner by Eleonora Viltaria, a war maiden of the neighboring kingdom of Zhcted. She will return him to Brune if his ransom is paid, but she has another reason for keeping him.
Once the prince's death got around,
Cuando se supo que el príncipe
estaba muerto,
Cuando se extendió la noticia 
de la muerte del príncipe,
Todo o poderio de Brune desmoronou
quando se soube da morte do príncipe.
