A young man, Oisin (pronounced "O-sheen"), is returning home with a group of huntsmen from an unsuccessful hunt when a deer appears before him and reveals herself to be Niamh (pronounced "Nee-am" and "Nee’uv"), a faerie princess. She takes him to her father, the Faerie King, whose shadow has come to life and now threatens Faerie Land. The King begs Oisin to travel to Squalor Web Castle and defeat the evil Shadow.
Oisin and his faerie helper Puck travel to the castle, encountering hags, goblins, merrows and other faerie creatures. They also save a kobold from being eaten by evil trows. Eventually the three arrive at the lake, beyond which sits the castle. After meeting an Irish faerie who attempts to dissuade them from their mission, they arrive at the castle. Avoiding redcaps, the Shadow's evil soldiers, Oisin makes his way to the tallest tower, defeats the Shadow, and joins a celebration in Faerie Land before returning to his human companions.
