For Wendy, the story began in an old bookstore with a bearded man eager to spoil the story of the wildest adventure he knew of. But for Rai Mahaya, it started back when the Tigers used to smoke...

Rai Mahaya was a thirteen-year-old, living the life her parents laid out for her; school, study, break, study, eat, sleep and repeat. She was tired of it: the world, the school, studies, and of all... herself. Frustrated by the burden of it, she decided to take yonder towards a mysterious well located within the school ground. A well said to grant the wishes of anyone brave enough to find it. A well, Rai accidentally fell into...
It all began back when tigers used to smoke in the mythical country of Arcot, the land of the five Saviours. It is a land of possibilities where anything is possible. A land where a prince, on the run from his six brothers, has been trying to do right by the country he was set to inherit after the death of his mother. Desperately trying to hold on to his position, he sets out on a journey to discover the Regal Hallows, a sacred ground said to hold the secrets of the kingdom of Arcot, the same place where Rai so mysteriously splashed into.
Now on the run from the six princes together, Rai and Jenesys, aided by a stable boy, team up to visit the Regal Hallows before their time and lucks run out...

A rouge prince with a quest to finish
A stable boy who likes to design prisons for fun
And a bored school girl who fell into a well
Together they race against time to save a kingdom wanting to do nothing with them... The first three sample chapters are available on wattpad, to read more, please buy it from Amazon!
