Deliver invitations to the neighboring kingdoms of Westfeld to the coronations of his stepfather, Aldric and his mother, Joanna, as King and Queen of Albon.

It is a Magic he doesn't quite believe in, and it has a proposition for him, a chance for him to attain what has been denied him by his stepfather; but it is not the only offer Richard receives while in Westfeld. He realizes these offers place him uncomfortably at the center of attention and intrigue. Other plans are being made for his life. His stepfather has distinct plans for not just Richard but for all the unmarried youth in his kingdom, and a maniacal foe plots Richard's death. Richard must come to terms with the Magic and it's power, make all the right choices, and still manage to stay alive.
