Professor
Holly, a
teacher
in an
English
university
has been
appointed
guardian
of a
small
boy.
The
child is
the son
of one
of the
married
students,
who, ill
with a
fatal
complaint,
seeks to
dispose
of his
affairs
before
the
end.
The
legacy
of
Professor
Holly is
fantastic.
In
addition
to a
fine
bequest
for
himself,
he is
admonished
to bring
up the
aforementioned
child,
who,
upon
coming
of age
is to
fulfill
a
strange
destiny.
The
dying
father
declares
his son
to be
the
direct
descendant
of an
ancient
Greek
priest
called
Kilecrates
who
lived
2,000
years
ago.
He has
documents
to
substantiate
his
incredible
statements
regarding
the
family
lineage.
In the
ancient
days
Kilecrates
was
dispoiled
of his
beloved
bride
and his
property
by the
machinations
of a
magnificent
but
diabolical
queen.
Kilecrates,
wondrously
handsome,
inspired
the
queen's
love,.
What she
loved,
she
demanded
and
destruction
followed
rebellion.
The
queen's
name
was,
SHE.
Her
rulership
included
a secret
country
hidden
in
darkest
Africa
and up
to the
present
day SHE
reigned
supreme
over her
subjects,
flaunting
all
natural
laws,
including
death.
Prophetic
documents
included
in the
will of
the
dying
student,
order
the son
forth
upon his
majority
to seek
this
hidden
land and
have his
reckoning
with
SHE.
Professor
Holly
proves
himself
a
conscientious
foster
father
and his
little
charge
grows up
to be a
fine
man.
According
to
instructions,
Professor
Holly
and his
ward set
out for
the
hidden
land.
Regardless
of
difficulties,
they
find
SHE's
kingdom.
In this
miraculous
country,
ruled
over by
an
ageless
Queen
and
surrounded
by
splendid
barbarism,
the two
Englishmen
risk
their
lives to
probe
the
secrets
of the
past and
settle
old
scores.
SHE's
ancient
passion
for
Kilecrates
is
transferred
to his
descendant.
There
ensues a
monumental
clash of
wills
strengthened
by age
old
emotions.
In
fantastic
primitive
fires of
love and
hate,
this
drama is
played
out to
its
amazing
end.
