From all appearances, the General should have a great life-- complete control of a village, lots of money, and a young, beautiful wife. But, when reality does not measure up to his expectations, he decides to see how the other half lives. Disguising himself as the mysterious Hero Plum, the General soon discovers there's more to life than meets the eye and quickly learns just how much his true persona is hated.
