The Legend of Zare Caspian

Princess

Feral fourth child of the royal household, Zare Ayglara Caspian of Galhara, is just glad to be alive and have her family with her. Last year her city burned before the armies of the Nether Queen, Narya Magnifique. Now Zare’s family is hiding in plain sight as members of a traveling circus as it crosses the Nether Queen’s growing domain. Soon they’ll be safely beyond the borders and can start a new life in exile.

But everything changes one night when Zare pulls an injured rebel out of a river and discovers that hope is not lost yet.

Mercenary

She is the last living heir of Galhara–so far as anyone knows. Her continued survival is an embarrassment to the Empress Narya Magnifique of Daiesen Bay, and Zare flaunts her name like sardines to a seagull to keep the Empress from seeing what’s really afoot. After all, being a mercenary just pays the bills.

Outlaw

Infamous. Wanted. Absurdly fictionalized. She is determined to topple the Empress draining the life from Daiesen. So determined that she takes daring jobs which bring her closer and closer to the heart of the mystery and wicked magic of the Empress’s rise.
