Synopsis
Five sisters, the daughters of a king, have grown apart. When their father falls ill with a mysterious and apparently magical sickness, they must set aside their rivalries. Bluebell, the eldest, is a feared warrior; Ash is discovering a magical talent and second sight; Rose is queen of a neighbouring kingdom; and the twins Willow and Ivy are very different in temper. Together they set out to find a powerful witch who can cure the king while trying to stop their stepbrother Wylm from seizing the throne. Each sister also keeps secrets that could tear the family and the kingdom apart.
