As Princess Stasia and her royal realm begin to recover from the treacherous reign of terror by Prince Agis and his Order of Rebels, a new evil emerges. This new alliance of evil threatens to split the kingdom in two and destroy the peaceful relations which have existed with neighboring lands for decades. With her enemies intent on destroying both her rulership and personal life, Princess Stasia must use her extraordinary wisdom and the help of loyal friends like Sir Rackley of Limekiln, the peasant boy Stefan, and Chief Royal Knight Mathieu to save the land before darkness descends upon it once again.
In the medieval land of Astoria, a young princess-to-be named Stasia was born into a world where wealth and privilege held great significance. As she grows up being a member of the royal family, she is groomed to become princess and take over rulership of the land at the age of sixteen. And she is placed into an arranged marriage with the prince of a neighboring land, being obligated to marry him at the age of seventeen. With her training based on a long-followed Code of Honor, Princess Stasia realizes that she is being taught values with which she disagrees and a way of thinking that she disapproves of. This places her in a difficult situation at a young age, because when her time comes to rule, she will have to make decisions with drastic consequences that could turn her own family against her and threaten the stability of the land. This is the story of how a remarkable young princess with extraordinary wisdom finds herself at odds with the establishment and the way things have always been.
