After a crushing defeat on the battlefield, the Ravner family are forced into exile whilst the king sits comfortably upon his throne. Years on and it's all the family know. Tormented by her seething brother since childhood, suffering is just another thing Asta knows and tolerates. Tolerates, that is, until it becomes far too unbearable to put up with any longer; she is soon sent fleeing an unwanted future and his cruel, fiery temper. On the run from her family, she is captured and forced to bow to the man they call king. Anything left of her is killed in an instant. Yet, when stirrings of old magic begin to surface - magic that has been dead and buried for many years - can Asta find her way in a world she never felt she belonged to? This pretty cover was made by @AHBaig :D (It has reached, as of yet, 570 in the rankings. I know, right? You're in awe of my abilities and A list fame.)

The girl smiled at her, not knowing who she was. "You look like a princess. You have nice hair and blue eyes that look like a dragon gave them to you." Princess Zahra gave a shaky laugh, wondering if the girl knew she had the same, glowing eyes as herself. "Well, I think you look like a princess too." She shook her head. "I don't want to be a princess. I want to be a warrior." --- Like any world, Rova is plagued with issues such as social disbalances, gender inequality and pirates. It is also included in a 20 year war. Zahra, the princess of Rova, is unaware of these problems because of her sheltered lifestyle within the palace walls. Her only worries are the temper of her little sister, Jaylyn, and the fear of disappointing her parents, the King and Queen. However, her views are tampered with as she is kidnapped and pulled into the lifestyle of pirates where she is exposed to the class discriminations, the poverty, magic and the raw power that people, especially women, can have when driven and determined. These new experiences also slap her into the reality that decisions have an impact and that she needs to learn to make them wisely. *** Also, please feel free to give constructive feedback and point out spelling or grammar mistakes.
