Episode synopsis
This is how the new reality series Oberon begins. A story in which Councillor Zebardyn keeps his promise to the dying King and goes in search of a worthy successor. 16 Candidates have been invited to compete for the throne. They are all given the chance to conquer the necklace of pure gold, which is the absolute symbol of the Kingship of Oberon. We meet this select group of invitees, 16 men and women, when they are blindfolded and ready for the first test. And when the blindfold is removed, the candidates see each other for the first time. The test is a simple puzzle. Everyone is chained to a pole with rope and rings. In the middle of it, on a round wooden table, lies the beautiful gold chain. The first to free themselves from this puzzle may wear the chain, go to the castle and call themselves the first regent or regentess of Oberon. He or she thereby obtains absolute power.
