Anidori-Kiladra Talianna Isilee, or simply Ani for short, was destined to be the queen of Kiladree. But then her father died. Now she is being whisked away to Bayern to marry a prince she's never met in order to ensure peace between the two countries. However, she faces betrayal after betrayal from those she least expects it from- her mother, her guards, and even her seemingly faithful ladyinwaiting, Selia. But she can talk to animals, which is pretty much the only thing going for her.
