The story takes place in the Kingdom of Berbania, a land ruled by King Fernando and Queen Valeriana. The King’s sons Prince Pedro, Prince Diego, and Prince Juan, must head to Mount Tabor in order to capture a mythical bird, Adarna, as their father’s mysterious illness can only be cured by its song.
