About this ebook
Following the return of Princess Elysant after her foiled plans to elope with a young sailor, a message from the Duke of Wessex, her betrothed, called for her presence at an important meeting... a meeting that was to decide the relationship between the kingdoms of Scillei and Wessex.

For this sea voyage, the King appointed his Navy Captain, Barwick, to guard his daughter along the way. For protection, Barwick attempted to strike a deal for faerie magic, but was turned down. Instead, Barwick learned of a deep secret regarding himself... he learned that he is half druid.
