Journey of the Maple

With a supposedly extinct dragon and a power-crazed necromancer loose, how could she have expected a smooth unification of countries? Of course, no one knew of the dragon or necromancer. After all, the necromancer was banished decades ago... Everything was going so well for her. Though her marriage would be based solely on political advantages to join their kingdoms, she found that she was quickly and unexpectedly falling for the dren prince, her betrothed. Just when she counted herself the most fortunate of maidens, disaster strikes. A mysterious dragon arrives to destroy everything she hoped for, and she is carried away to the lair of a powerful necromancer. As her dreams are crushed, it seems her only hope lies with her fiance and his loyal half-dwarf bodyguard, who set out to return the elf princess to her devastated kingdom. As they begin this epic journey to restore the two kingdoms' future, thwart the necromancer, and save all of Amried, nothing goes as expected. When death strikes again, love takes unexpected turns, her engagement unravels, and all seems lost, will her efforts be enough to save the kingdoms from falling to the most powerful sorcerer of their time? Only time will tell if this journey will break her spirit for good or if it will cause her to find strength she never knew existed - and a love that reaches beyond death’s boundary.
