When Halla, a middle-aged widow, becomes the beneficiary of a large estate after the death of her late husband’s great uncle. Her good fortune quickly takes a turn for the worse when her scheming in-laws, jilted after being overlooked in his will, locks her in her room, planning to marry her off to her cousin to get their hands on her wealth.
After being locked in her room for 3 days, she decides that death would be a better choice than being forced to marry again, especially to her clammy handed cousin Alver, she frantically searches for a way to take her life before that happens. Desperate and with very few choices, a sword mounted above her bed seems to be her only option.
While trying to find a way to take her life with the least amount of pain, Halla unknowingly releases Sarkis, an immortal warrior who inhabits the great sword and is now spellbound to protect her. Pushing down the shock of a strange, armored man appearing out of a sword, Halla takes this opportunity to try and escape her captivity with the help of her surly new companion.
After a messy escape, Halla finds herself on the run with Sarkis as her guard, searching for a way to stop her in-laws from retaliating against her. They set out on a journey, hoping to partition the counsel for help, but trouble seems to find them at every turn, earning them even more enemies along the way. With every obstacle seemingly against them will Halla ever gain the freedom she’s always wanted? Or will she lose everything including the one thing she didn’t expect to find? Let’s find out!
