Marko is a young boy with a heart of gold. All his life, he has been in love with the beautiful Princess Pencilia, but since Marko is not a prince, there's no chance he could ever marry her.

High in the mountains above where Marko lives, a dark and scary castle looms over the village. The castle is the home of Wes the great, an evil ruler feared by all the townsfolk. When Wes sets his sights on Pencilia, Marko knows trouble is on the way.

Wes kidnaps the princess, and Marko makes it his mission to save her. To do so, he must face several dangers, including Wes's henchmen, a dangerous climb, and even a tumble into a deep, dark cave. In that cave, though, Marko finds just the power he needs to save the princess. This underdog becomes an unexpected superhero, all in the name of love.
