Description

In this swash‑buckling chivalric saga, the valiant knight Amadis receives grim news that the beloved Princess Oriana has been seized by a mysterious force. He and his loyal companion set off from the outskirts of London, racing against time across forests, rivers and crumbling ruins, while a dwarf messenger and a desperate queen add urgency to their quest. Along the way they confront enigmatic woodmen, a hermit who hints at a dark sorcerer, and the grim aftermath of a fallen knight.

Their pursuit leads them to the foreboding fortress of Arcalaus, where whispers of enchantments and captive maidens echo through its high walls. As Amadis slips through shadowed valleys and surveils the gate, the tension mounts, and the promise of a desperate rescue hangs in the air. Listeners will be drawn into a world of honor, danger, and relentless determination, eager to see whether the knight can outwit the sorcerer and reclaim the princess.
