Arawn, Lord of the Land of Death, has been building an army of dark warriors to take over Prydain, and the only way to stop him is to destroy the Black Cauldron he uses to create his dreaded soldiers. He’s an assistant pig-keeper but initially dreams of being a grand hero. In the land of Prydain, evil is never far away.
