The benevolent King rules the land with his young, irresponsible son the Prince not quite willing to take on the duties of royalty. Why be responsible when you can lark about?
The evil Winter Queen has her cold heart set on ruling the King's land.
She lures him into a trap before killing him.
In his pursuit of fun and frolics, the Prince had been oblivious to his father's death. On discovering this he is held back from danger by his trusted Wolf Servant. The Winter Queen banishes him from the kingdom.
The Prince embarks upon a quest to win back his father's kingdom. As he sets out across the wild land he encounters some mischievious Tree Imps who harrass him with their curious ways. He uses his cunning to make his way past by distracting them but is parted from his Wolf Servant in the process.
Now alone, he sees the Temptress. She captivates his impressionable heart with her seductive charms until he discovers her brandishing a dagger to his chest. He is able to overpower her and moves on, learning to be careful of who he trusts.
Finally our Prince's path is blocked by the Keeper. Using a new-found strength and ingenuity, the Prince fights off the Keeper who then honours him by letting him past.
Meanwhile, having realised the Prince may well return to seek revenge, the Winter Queen sends out her Ice Henchmen to follow the Prince and kill him.
Back on his journey, the Prince has finally made his way to the Summer Queen's abode where he makes his way through protective Summer Courtiers to discover the Summer Queen herself. The two fall in love and she agrees to help him in his quest.
The Prince is reunited with his loyal Wolf Servant who then meets the Summer Queen but they have been followed by the Ice Henchmen. The Wolf Servant encourages the lovers to flee whilst he stands guard ready to see off the threat.
The Summer Queen and Prince watch on helpless at a distance as the Ice Henchmen move in on the Wolf Servant. His bravery is no match for their power and with an icy chill they kill him.
So, what will happen in our final part of the story tomorrow? Come to Kings Parade in Cambridge tomorrow from 4pm, then to Parker's Piece afterwards to find out!
