Description

In a land where a woman's worth is tied to her lineage and obedience, fifteen-year-old Dashti finds her life irrevocably bound to that of her young mistress, Lady Saren. Together, they endure years of unjust confinement, a gilded cage that tests their spirits and their bond. When an opportunity for freedom arises, Dashti must use all her cunning and loyalty to spirit Saren away to a new life, one where they must conceal their true identities and navigate the treacherous currents of courtly life as humble kitchen maids. This tale explores themes of sacrifice, hidden strength, and the enduring power of love and friendship against formidable odds.
