Summary

«The Brothers Lionheart» is the story of two brothers, Jonathan and Karl Lionheart, who find themselves in the magical land of Nangiyala after their deaths. Jonathan, the elder brother, dies saving Karl from a fire and arrives in Nangiyala first. Karl, who is ill and soon passes away, joins him there. In Nangiyala, the brothers become involved in a struggle against the tyranny of the evil knight Tengil and his dragon Katla. Jonathan and Karl join the resistance led by Sofia and help liberate the land from oppression. At the end of the story, to avoid enslavement by Tengil, the brothers leap into a chasm and arrive in another land—Nangilima, where there is no pain or suffering.
