Overview

In the medieval kingdom of Donnegold, a young prince named Davin lives with his father, the noble King Henryk. But that comes to an end when the King's black knight, El El, poisons him. As he lays dying, Henryk gives his son a small black statue of a creature. He tells him that it is called "Galgameth", the family guardian of legend. Davin takes it and while he is away mourning his father, El El secretly shatters the statue and takes command, thrusting the kingdom into turmoil under Davin's name! Davin is given the broken statue by a maidservant cries. The next morning he finds that the statue has become a small creature which he nicknames "Galgy". Brought to life by the prince's tears, Galgameth becomes his friend and guardian as he finds himself chased by El El and in the company of disgruntled peasants who are planning a revolt in order to dethrone the man they think is the source of all their trouble: Prince Davin!
