Synopsis
In the mystical world of Earthsea, where magic is part of everyday life, a strange force has upset its delicate natural balance. As a result, the crops wither, and the once-forgotten dragon race has re-emerged. Order yields to chaos, and the only hope for restoring peace rests in the hands of Lord Arch-mage Sparrowhawk and Arren, a troubled young prince. Together, they embark on a perilous journey to uncover the truth behind the mysterious imbalance that threatens to tear the realm apart. But with evil lurking in every corner, will Arren be able to fulfil his destiny and save the land, or will he fall prey to the darkness that threatens to consume him?
