- Summary
- They have settled down in Seville and the Royal Alcazar's kitchen becomes his world, a grayish and monotonous existence from where the young boy tries to flee, traveling with the eyes of his imagination. Fate will lead him to discover his true vocation: music. However, not everything is friendly around him: Oreste Olivoni, a despotic foreman of the Royal Palace, feels a profound animadversion against him and his father, and does not hesitate to abuse of his influence to make their life unbearable. Meanwhile, Yago walks into his maturity, Catholic Monarchs won't give up their reconquer eagerness. Granada's war and simultaneously Yago's own life suffer an unexpected turn when Boabdil is captured. In the company of the sultan, Yago discovers another world beyond the borders of the Christian Kingdom, far from the terrible threat that presses the Inquisition, and decides to take refuge there. In the sensual harem's gardens, allowed for him due to his impaired vision, Yago meets Nur, Boabdils pretty and rebellious sister. An incontrollable attraction surges between them, overwhelming and misunderstood by everyone, but destined to prevail yonder the hatred that keeps their nations enemies.
