He then wages war against his peaceful neighbors, killing their women and enslaving their men. A hero named Ursus appears at a tournament to challenge Hamilan's authority. Though victorious at the tournament, Ursus is arrested and forced to turn a grist-mill under an overseer's lash. Meanwhile, the former king's virtuous daughter, Diana, is tormented by her evil cousin, the new queen. Sentenced to a slow and tortuous execution, Ursus breaks free and a revolt breaks out.

- In ancient Italy a lake is the border between two lands. One side is ruled by Lothar, a king of fire-worshippers, and a simple tribe of shepherds who only want to live in peace, live on the other side. Diana, the King's daughter was out riding when her horse was frightened by a snake. She was thrown off her horse into the lake. Ursus, the leader of the shepherds, dived into the water to save Diana from drowning. When General Amilcare found out what had happened he accused Ursus of defiling the princess and crossing the border. Amilcare is a cruel and ambitious man who wants to be king himself with his evil niece as his queen, no matter what it takes. He decided the best way to get the people to obey him was to convince them that the shepherds on the other side of the lake are agressors who want to destroy the kingdom of Lothar. So he went to war against his peaceful neighbours, killing their women and children,and enslaving their men. Only the mighty Ursus can save the day.—bcarruthers-76500
