In the castle of Ablamor, King Erilayd and Queen Erilayda had a daughter, a little princess. They named her Evisol, which means Sea Wave. The parents were indescribably happy, but their happiness did not last long. The evil sorcerer, the Green Hunchback, sent an assassin who treacherously plunged a knife straight into the king's heart and kidnapped the little princess. And the grief-stricken queen, the Green Hunchback turned into cold marble...
In this fairy tale told by the famous writer Sofya Prokofieva, the princess must embark on a difficult journey to save not only her mother, but also other people and even animals she encounters along the way. The little heroine will literally glow with kindness, for which she will be named Candle Girl.
