Child of the dark prophecy
Long ago, Merlin planted a seed that became the Great Tree of Avalon, a land that links Heaven and Earth. In accordance with the Lady of the Lake's prophecy, Avalon's existence is threatened when the stars stop shining, and its fate rests with three young people; one of them is Merlin's heir, who can save Avalon, while one, the child of the dark prophecy, is fated to destroy it.
