The initial adventurous journey of young knight Jindrich Petipesky (Henry) is portrayed on background of great historical/cultural transitions of 16th century.

Jizera Mountains, 1551. 20-year-old knight Henry has in his custody the village of Urbach, where people suddenly start to disappear under strange circumstances. Locals suspect mysterious Wallachians, who settled in the mountains nearby. When young Alma disappears, Henry decides to find and rescue her. On Fichtelberg, the highest mountain always covered with clouds, he discovers a true hell: dirty laborers are digging bones and crushing them to powder, used by a secret factory producing porcelain-like white glass. Long desired Alma is there too and for sure not of her own free will.
