Work Description
*Two Women
Elske -- a girl with no future, until her grandmother's sacrifice saves her from certain death.
Beriel -- an imperious princess, determined to claim the kingdom that is her birthright.*
Fate brings them together, both exiles, one servant to the other. To Beriel, the mistress, Elske offers steadfast loyalty and courage -- hard to come by in her dangerous quest to regain the throne she has been denied by treachery. To Elske, the handmaiden, Beriel's proud example provides a perhaps even more precious gift -- the strength to find her true self.
