Princess Ivy couldn't believe that her father would ally with the kingdom they had been both rivals and enemies with for centuries. To top it off, her father the king wants to marry her off to their eldest prince. Though it was punishable by death to steal the treasured 'blue star' from the castle, Princess Ivy didn't want it in the hands of an enemy, nor did she want to have marriage ties with them and fled with it. Along the way she meets Eric Greene, a bandit, wounded from fighting the beast-men known as the balakar. After healing his wounds they escape to the bandit village where she could hide until her father could come to his senses. But what other dangers are there living with the bandits and hiding from the knights of her kingdom? And Is marrying Eric the best alternative as well?
