In a ruined castle deep in the wilderness, there lived a beautiful princess guarded by a ferocious dragon.
Except for the fact that the maiden in the tower was no princess at all, but the dragon's daughter. Rescued against her will, she is carried off to human lands and given the name Lady Patrice Drake. Caught between culture shock and grief, she must find a way to navigate her strange new surroundings lest she be drowned under human machinations and politics. Who among these people are enemies? Who among them are allies? And most importantly, who is she without her mother's guidance and protection?
