Deadly Knight Shade episode 2: Roots
“After surviving a midair attack, Princess Vivian and Solaris crash deep within the forest and seek refuge at Solaris’s old family farm — but as Vivian begins to grow into her own strength, dark ties between her lineage, the Shades, and a vengeful spy start to take root.”
Stranded far from the castle, Vivian ventures into a haunted forest to find help for the injured Solaris, unknowingly crossing paths with Lydia — a bitter, horned girl working for the enemy. The rescue leads them to Merriweather’s farm, where Solaris’s found family offers healing, lessons, and uneasy peace. As Vivian learns magic, crafts her first weapon, and earns her new companions’ trust, while Lydia’s resentment grows under the Conductor’s control. Meanwhile, King Castien’s desperate research hints that the roots growing in the castle grounds go deeper than he expected.
Deadly Knight Shade (pilot)
“When a Shade kidnaps her best friend, a headstrong 17-year-old princess sets out to rescue him while uncovering family secrets that could uproot her kingdom’s legacy.”
On the night of her birthday gala, a rebellious princess defies her father’s control, unearths a dangerous family legacy, and escapes the castle to rescue her missing knight—unaware that a Lich and his Shades are already orchestrating her downfall.
