The
Mora Stone
Virgo In Proelium Provehetur - A Maid Will
Ride Forth Into Battle -
On her thirteenth birthday,
Willow is given a broken ring in a curious box
with a cryptic message. From the moment she slips
the ring onto her finger, nothing is quite the
same. Summoned back hundreds of years to a
Scandinavian country visited in her dreams she
becomes embroiled in an epic quest to defend the rightful heir to the
throne, the
young queen-elect Amise, little older than herself.
It will be for the ancient Mora Stone to
decide the outcome of a struggle against the abuse of
power - and for life itself.
