Plot

Based on the anonymous poem "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight," follows the lovely but cursed Risa from the moment her fate was sealed. The wealthy Rygehil promises his unborn daughter to the sorcerer Euberacon in exchange for the life of his sick and dying wife. Knowing that when his daughter comes of age he will lose her, Rygehil grows distraught and refuses to let the beautiful Risa marry. Frustrated and headstrong, Risa grabs her bow and flees. Euberacon is not so easily deceived and, determined to have her as his wife, chases after her. Risa must rely on the help of brooding stranger Sir Gawain, Knight of the Round Table, to escape the sorcerer's grasp. But alas, Risa is truly cursed, and her father's deal with the devil has set in motion a series of events that even the noble Gawain may not be able to overcome.
