Synopsis
[edit]A yaksha prince, Dehayaksa, has taken reign of the people of Ramthep Nakorn. However, when there is a prophecy that he is to be defeated by a warrior with a knowledge of Muay Thai and a weapon known as the 'Satravuth', he sets out to destroy all schools of Muay Thai and seeks to destroy the Satravuth, while imprisoning the royals of Ramthep Nakorn to prevent the prophecy from coming true.
A young boy named Ott and his stepfather are able to escape to the remote Nok-Aen Islands, where Ott trains in Muay Thai with the hopes of bringing the Satravuth back to Ramthep Nakorn and freeing its people. On his journey, he befriends a monkey prince named Vata, a red yaksha named Maratta, and a Chinese pirate named Xiaolan.
