STORY:
There was once a young girl in the 13th century slave markets of Iran. This is the tale of a witch who toyed with a vast continent. After losing her mother and being torn far from her homeland, Sitara found herself utterly alone. Still young, with no ability to survive on her own and no hope for the future, she is taken in by Fatima, a kind-hearted lady from a family of scholars. “If you study and become wise, no matter what trouble befalls you, you’ll know the best way forward.” Deeply moved by the words of Fatima’s son, Muhammad, Sitara came to understand the possibilities and importance of knowledge and begins to deepen her education. She dreams that one day, she might catch up with Muhammad, who has set off on a journey in pursuit of wisdom… Meanwhile, under the reign of Emperor Genghis Khan, the mighty Mongol Empire continues its unstoppable march, conquering nation after nation and expanding its influence across the world. That boundless ambition finally reaches Sitara’s city. At the hands of the empire’s fourth prince, Tolui, her peaceful everyday life comes to an end. Having lost everything, Sitara vows revenge against the all-consuming empire.
