Cygna, cursed with a swan's wing in place of one arm, is all that stands between her home and ruination.
It is a quest her step-mother hopes she won't survive.
The kingdom is withering into a wasteland and a monster from the Underworld is making its march of destruction toward the castle.
And at her coming of age, Cygna is afraid her father will force her to take the throne.
Born to unconventional parentage, she is stuck between two worlds and a threat to anyone who won.
