The story begins with a servant family, a powerful child, and a lethal royal legend. The father seeks freedom while teaching his son to conceal his unusual strength.
A false murder accusation destroys the family's security and leads to imprisonment. After freedom and relocation, a later ambush separates the siblings and causes memory loss.
Recovered memory turns the protagonist toward revenge. His group uses disguises, calculated punishments, and political schemes to weaken a powerful prince.
The rebel group expands its operations and becomes known for helping ordinary people. Personal love and concealed identities develop alongside the struggle against official power.
The king responds to popular resistance with public hunts, executions, and military force. The palace is infiltrated, a devastating sacrifice follows, and the people finally confront royal authority.
