Forgotten princess

…She was not just a lost princess; she was an heir, imbued with a power she was only beginning to understand.

The path to reclaiming her throne was steep, but for the first time since fleeing her home, Anya felt a flicker of genuine hope.

The Heart of the Whisperwood had offered them not just shelter, but a promise.
