Consumed by jealousy and denied the crown, a prince flirts with treason to claim what he believes is his. Medraut is the eldest son of High King Artos, fiercely brave and fiercely angry. Because of the unfortunate circumstances of his birth, he can never inherit the British throne. Instead, his younger, unskilled half-brother, Lleu, is named the chosen successor. Unable to stomach the idea of bowing to a boy he views as weak, Medraut listens to the dark whispers of Morgause, the king's treacherous sister. She expertly exploits his shame and resentment, drawing him into a dangerous plot to seize power. You will enter a harsh and unforgiving Britain, watching as Medraut wrestles with his own bitter demons. But as he spends more time with Lleu, Medraut begins to see a quiet inner strength and genuine goodness in the young heir. He must decide whether to tear his family apart for the sake of a stolen crown or protect the brother he was supposed to destroy. This dark fantasy offers a compelling twist on the classic Arthurian legend.
