Notes

422, 16 pages : map Summary: Sixteen years ago the Kingdom of Winter was conquered and its citizens enslaved, leaving them without magic or a monarch. The Winterians' only hope for freedom is the eight survivors who managed to escape, and who have been searching ever since for the opportunity to steal back Winter's magic and rebuild their kingdom. Orphaned as an infant during Winter's defeat, Meira has lived her whole life as a refugee. Training to be a warrior, and desperately in love with her best friend, who is Winter's future king, Meira would do anything to help Winter rise to power again. When scouts discover the location of half of the ancient locket that can restore their magic, Meira decides to go after it herself, and finds herself thrust into a world of evil magic and dangerous politics.
