The Thrice-Ninth Kingdom: Summary and Trailer

A plateau in the mountains, devoid of colours, under an overhang barely wide enough to shield them from the winds. Heldris cuts down dead twisted trees and they huddle around the fire like lost children.

The Company of the Black Fleece travelled to the fae kingdom to rescue Ser Perilake's son Avert. But how did they end up in this wondrous and indeed quite perilous place?

~ Summary of events ~

• Tizra, the Herald of the Elf, gifts Sir Anastaz the Harvest Bow.

• Sir Anastaz defeats the Elf, the Steward of Seasons. The Elf banishes Tizra from his realm. Tizra plots his revenge on the Company of the Black Fleece in order to get back in the Elf's good graces.

• Sir Milos makes a pact with a fae lord who grants him knowledge and power … for a price. He later becomes the Fox Knight.

• Ser Perilake marries Lady Inga of Svenrik, the Envoy of house Kranach. Their son Avert is born.

• Perilake's squire Zoltan is knighted by the Frozen Seer and becomes the Pigeon Knight.

The Elf, the Steward of Seasons

• Tizra lures three children from Bohat, a nearby village, into his halls. He replaces them with Vyměněnec.

• The Fox Knight while travelling through Bohat hears rumours about children behaving strangely. The Company decides to investigate. Lady Inga takes Avert to Bohat to speak to the village's mayor.

• Sir Anastaz is lead by the Vyměněnec who replaced Marko to the nearby hills where Marko first disappeared. The changeling tries to kill him but later The Salt Knight gains his trust.

• Avert tells his father about “the moon” who tried to climb into his room. Ser Perilake decides to hide in his son's room and fight the intruder.

• The Fox Knight and The Dove Knight lay a trap for the Fae but it is too late: While they confront Biljana's Vyměněnec Tizra puts a spell on Ser Perilake and abducts Avert.

• Sir Anastaz frees two of the children, Bijlana and Marko from Tizra's Halls. The third one, Saša, stays behind and the halls collapse.

A Strange Kingdom where Winter reigns

• Ser Perilake travels across the Realm to ask the Seers for guidance but none of them can help. Until at last he visits the Veiled Seer who mutters a name: The Thrice-Ninth Kingdom.

• The Pigeon Knight uses his unique ability to lead the Company to a burnt down forest with a single old rowan tree and a small door in its trunk. They crawl through and emerge on the other side in the mountains of a strange kingdom where winter reigns.
