In the modern day, Sandra Worth meets archaeologist Geoffrey Garth at a party. Geoffrey noticed the ring Sandra was wearing and inquired on how she acquired it. Sandra said that the ring had been handed down in her family for generations. Geoffrey explained that it was one of the mystical rings of Zubran, from the Kingdom of Ormuz. Geoffrey also had found one during his expedition, and had been looking for its double. The rings were said to be able to allow its possessor to view the past. Geoffry and Sandra decided to test the rings by reading an incantation from an ancient scroll. After the reading, Sandra began to see into the distant past, into the life of Malu, Princess of Ormuz, and her protector Garth. Malu was kidnapped and sold into slavery, but 18 years later she was found by Garth, a captain of the guard in the city of Ormuz. The duo set out to return Malu to her throne in Ormuz. They encounter many adventures and fall in love along the way. They dealt with threats such as the Pirates of Abmur and the Bandits of Tal Azmut. When they finally arrived in Ormuz, Malu’s evil uncle, Phao, claimed that Garth was a liar and a traitor. Garth was sentenced to slavery and Malu was exiled. The two escaped from Phao and ended up in the kingdom of Zarkhana. There, Garth helped to overthrow the tyrant Shala, and restored order. Shala’s sister Tirza made Garth the new king of Zarkhana. Garth took Malu as his queen, but Shala continued to plot her revenge.
