Tomorrow is the first day of spring... and the day of the Annual Gifting Ceremony. Prince Hakan, his brother Fannar, and their two friends - Shammoth and Joule - anxiously await their turn to pass through the mysterious waterfall that once a year bestows extraordinary abilities to the sixteen-year-olds of their kingdom, but things go terribly wrong when one of them is gifted a power with a dark legacy. As seemingly everyone in Ladothite turns on the unfortunate recipient, the true gifts of the four teenagers, along with their four other friends, will be tested; the gifts of their good hearts. Will the group of teenagers be strong enough to stand by their friend when things seem most bleak? Can the bearer of this gifted-curse face the onslaught of unjust prejudice against him and come out unchanged?
