Ein Krieg zwischen den beiden ungleichen Reichen Idris und Hallandren scheint unvermeidbar. Um die Vernichtung hinauszuzögern, bleibt dem König von Idris kein anderer Ausweg, als die Einhaltung eines einst geschlossenen Paktes: Die Vermählung einer seiner Töchter mit dem Gottkönig von Hallandren. Doch statt Vivenna, die ihr Leben lang auf diese Rolle vorbereitet wurde, schickt der König seine jüngste Tochter Siri, ein quirliges, aufmüpfiges Mädchen, an den Hof des Feindes.
