Long ago, in a kingdom far away, the magician of Tiger Castle is on thin ice. Once the greatest in the land, Anatole’s spells have dried up. He can’t even turn sand into gold anymore. The only one who still believes in him is kind Princess Tullia, and he hopes – for the sake of their friendship – that he can soon redeem himself and stay within the king’s court. When the opportunity arises, Anatole is faced with an impossible decision. Princess Tullia is betrothed to the prince of a rich neighbouring kingdom, an alliance which will save bankrupt Esquaveta and all its citizens. But, Tullia has secretly fallen in love with a lowly apprentice scribe and refuses to wed the prince. The King tasks Anatole with the most difficult magic of all: an anti-love potion. Anatole can save everything and everyone if he can shatter the young lovers’ romance.
