Riaviona, also known as Ria, has been "imprisoned" in her castle ever since the death of her father. Her mother never even sees her except on her birthday. And she's never allowed to get out. Yes, she's tried. But she could never get away. She has no current friends. She only has her teacher/lady in waiting as her friend. But then one day her old best friends, before her "imprisonment", come up in disguises and plan to take her away. Her friends are part of a group wanting to protect her and yet want the queen off the throne. They claim that her mother is a tyrant. War is soon approaching, and they were to escape. But would they make it far without getting caught? Is her mom really a tyrant? Would they suffer consequences which might include death? Keep reading to find out... (not edited. Thanks for reading:)
