The realm of King Skrček of Fištrón will be cursed, one misfortune will be followed by another, human hearts will be filled with ruthlessness and cruelty, and the royal son Orthodox will be lost.

She has to go through many difficult trials, she is prosecuted by evil rather than good, she becomes the target of resentment and malice.
