The story of Prince Nares, the son of King Maha Thammaracha and Queen Wisut Kasattri who was sent as a political hostage to the city of Hongsawadi as a royal youth. There, he grew up alongside Mingyi Swa, the beloved grandson of King Bayinnaung. Nares and Mingyi Swa had polar-opposite personalities—whereas Nares was bold, fond of combat, and feared no one, Mingyi Swa was calm, gentle, and had a love of art and nature—both their differences forged a bond between them stronger than that of true brothers. However, as each aged into their own responsibilities and duties to reclaim their homelands, the once fraternal friendship transformed into a bitter battle of adversaries.
