The royal grandchild is born, Beatrice has schemed to betray Calixta by sending the child with a goose through the Tunnel of Stars. The sorceress returns and puts the Groaning Stone Curse on the castle and its inhabitants and informs everyone that the only one who can reverse the curse is the royal child.For ten years the mages are doing what they must in order to find the child, but also find a way to save her from the hands of the sorceress. The plot ultimately succeeds and the kingdom is saved. There are unexpected plot twists that are revealed during the final chapters of the story.Ricky Tims - Kat Bowser 2020
