Fated to save a realm. Longing to find peace. Can one untried girl fulfill a prophecy before her enemies claim power?
Carling never wanted glory. Living happily with her family, the half-fairy sixteen-year-old prefers a carefree life of adventure. But after a herd of evil centaurs murders her parents, the grief-stricken girl is stunned when a wizard names her the kingdom's future queen. Presented with a magical silver breastplate and a quest to fill it with the four legendary Stones of Light, Carling sets out with her best friend to seek her destiny. But with greedy ogres, cyclopes, and centaurs scheming for the throne themselves, the young monarch-in-training may never see her chance to rule.
Is Carling's journey doomed, or will her true heart guide her to the crown?
