Portrayed as gruesome scavengers, and the pet of death, the song of a raven is a rare melody to bask in. Raven, a young elven girl, had once had an opportunity to soar beyond the confines of the alienage she called to be her home. Even if it were only for a moment, the smallest fraction of time, her horizon expanded from the tall walls of the poorly kept, elvish alienage, to the rest of the kingdom of D'Ravell, a vast, snow bitten land, protected by the order of knights, called the Majastre. Since she was a child, she had only dreamed of being a knight for the Majastre, travelling into the wild areas within D'Ravell. As Raven grew older, she often practiced her combat skills upon others of her age, until her targets grew sick of it, and reported her to the officers within the isolated alienage. A trial was conducted, the verdict, guilty. The judge proclaimed that Raven had one of two choice; Accept the prospect of being locked away, or join the knights of the Majastre.

Sometimes the best knight is a damsel. In a world where women are seen as weak, defenceless creatures for men to protect and own, one orphan girl wants to be different. She dreams of being a knight. Slaying dragons, taking down armies with her father's sword. Only her foster parents don't agree with her views. On the night of her betrothal to a man over twice her age, the King's soldiers come to their tiny village, and in the chaotic aftermath she's left with a choice. Go back to life she knows and marry a man she despises. Or journey onward and risk death to earn the knighthood she dreams of. The road forward isn't a safe one for a girl travelling with only her foster brother as company. Magic lurks in dark places. Vengeance burrows deep in many equally dark hearts. And all around the circle armies are gathering to defend the Kingdom against a threat not seen for a thousand years. This is the first part of the 140 thousand word fantasy adventure.
