Meanwhile, a stranger with a blue cloak and pink hair slips into town, trailing blood and sweet lies in her wake. She seeks an ancient lock, and knows that a certain student is the key.
The Mountain Dancer is the story of a girl at a crossroads, a boy who doesn't know his own strength, and a lost secret that has slept for far too long.

When a much needed, alcohol induced night was needed with her best friend, she got more placed on her shoulders than everything combined. Magic? That was far from being in her world travel lists she kept in the back of her mind when she wasn't drowning in student loan debt and stuffing her nose in books to pass classes that wouldn't help her anymore. Even with the knowledge she gained from her world, Lydia had to lean onto those around her to tread the world that seemed to think she held some power they waited centuries for; whether she saved their Kingdom... or caused the downfall of it all.
