Story

King Graham is dying after a sudden heart attack. His daughter, Rosella, is contacted by a good fairy called Genesta who tells her that there is a cure. Genesta teleports Rosella to another land called Tamir where she finds out that the cure is a magical fruit. However, Genesta can't send Rosella back to her own country because an evil fairy, Lolotte, has stolen Genestas' talisman that gives her magical power. Rosella has to return the talisman to Genesta to be able to return back to Daventry in time to save her father.
