The Vow That Withered — Episode 5

Lumberjack Soren accidentally breaks the seal imprisoning the Dark Elf King and is granted three wishes that change his life forever. Before his death, Soren uses a marriage contract to secure one final wish: the Elf King must protect his granddaughter and the kingdom for six years. But the princess, a devoted believer in the power of light, despises darkness and sees the Elf King’s silent protection as nothing more than pathetic dependence. She repeatedly rejects the very man who has been secretly safeguarding her and her kingdom. Only when the marriage contract burns to ashes and an enemy army arrives at the kingdom’s gates does she finally realize the devastating truth: the man she pushed away was the last line of defense standing between her kingdom and total destruction.
