Magic belongs to the royal bloodlines.
The people of the kingdom Inyairele have never seen the royal princess before, but rumors float around towns that she was born powerless.
How could that be possible? Every person of royal descent, even children produced from infidelity, had some glimpse of magic. Yet, not once in my sixteen years had I exhibited any signs of possessing a magic ability.
I'd never left the castle, as to hide my identity. Only the castle servants had seen my face. Any normal person of Inyairele would assume I resembled my mother or father.
But I don't.
