Abstract

Raine Whitley is a traveler, going from town to town and making money wherever she can, meeting humans, elves, centaurs, and more. She’s nothing special, or so it seems. What those she meets doesn’t know is that she isn’t a human, she’s not from where she claims to be, and her name isn’t even really Raine. In actuality, she’s the sole heir to a fairy kingdom with a “lost princess” that no one knows is really her.

After fleeing the throne and its responsibilities, as well as the ongoing abuse from her father, Raine stays on the run. Throughout her time traveling the kingdoms, she meets new people and experiences new things that help her reconsider what it means to be a leader and a hero.
