Synopsis
“One who’s smuggling their secrets will fail to examine what others are carrying”
Set in a fictional kingdom during time of war and strife, “under the olive tree“ follows prince Lomu as he embarks on an adventure he never asked for, fraught with a myriad of perilous encounters and betrayals, while a greater threat looms over the entire kingdom. Love, loyalty, fraternity and chivalry are pitted against ambition, friendship, callousness and pragmatism. A single clandestine fetch and carry turns the nation ablaze as Lomu finds himself at cross-purposes with many powerful individuals.
Through a concatenation of circumstances originally designed as a story for a roleplaying action-adventure video game, comes an easily digestible yet no less complex misadventure of a man who discovers that he alone is not a carrier of secrets… nor are his secrets ghastlier than others.
