When the courts exonerate him, he looks for a way to reinstate his certificate. The love of his dreams, Princess Pra is on hand to help but Krufassa, the brother of the Princess, tricks Edu to risk his life to fetch a sacred tattoo tablet for Professor Tetteh for his research into treating infections in livestock. Unfortunately, the Chief of the town has sold Edus fathers ancestral land which has the richest deposit of the mineral necessary for this sacred tablet. Edus father wants revenge for this slight but the operation spills over and leads to the kidnapping of Princess Pra and Edu.
