For over 200 years, the kingdom of Welldyn has prospered on predictability. The same tasks are expected of every caste, and outsiders are rarely welcomed. But when the mysterious death of the palace's physician brings a strange girl to the royal household, that predictability begins to crumble. In an unlikely happening of events, a young, naive prince and the stranger form a unique bond. They soon discover that there are dark things happening beneath the surface of Welldyn--- things can only they can stop. No one in the palace can be trusted, not even family. Through the twists and turns of palace life, the two will embark on a journey of self-discovery and learn the true nature of the kingdom. လ Note: Sovereign is a fantasy novel, so it does include some magic; however it is minor and mostly small incantations. It should be noted that magic is NOT a large part of the book. There is a lot of mystery and romance as well, which I would say are more central themes. This story is still in progress, but I wanted to give it a test run, perhaps get a little feedback. Any acknowledgement is highly appreciated :) I hope you enjoy.
