A pilot short as a prologue for the feature “Ysis the Magnificent”. From an epic fight in the legedary North, King Grallon brings back Malgven, a beautiful and strange woman, born in another world, a war-goddess who has given herself to him. But Grallon's fleet wanders on the raging ocean for a year and Malgven dies. And Grallon is left with Morvak, the dark steed and Dahud a baby girl born in the storm and the sea-sprays.
