What is faith, except hope in desperation?

All Putera Mikal wants is to gain the Amok Strength, the supernatural power granted by Kudus to the Mahan royal family. No matter how religiously Mikal keeps his vows, Kudus still denies him the Strength?whilst his father, Sultan Simson, flaunts the Strength despite his blatant defiance of the Temple and the priests' visions of coming doom.

Then the prophecies come true.

Taken captive, Mikal must find a way to liberate his people and restore his throne in Maha?and the key to this is the Amok Strength. But what does it take to gain Kudus' favour?
