    About this ebook

    Books and magic, woodgoblins and dragons, gryphons and castles, love and betrayal. Happy ending.
    "What do you do when feeling melancholic? You undertake something which could refresh your mind and body and help to forget your mischief. Princes are like all the rest humans, in general, with the only difference: when getting bored or melancholic, they begin a crusade or battle, going to fight with dragons, or other deeds of the same heroic kind, instead of going to the gym or beginning the next, extemporaneous spring-cleaning. When they begin a heroic quest for fame, any fun ends, for the quest is to be serious and sad but highly of benefit for princes and their people. Heroic deeds should be of benefit. Many various events took place in the world, in the time of Prince Severin and earlier; there was much romantic, heroic, merry and anything. But historians and annalists know fearsome stories as well." (Lara Biyuts. Severin)
