Rana is duchess and advisor to Hillel, but no one really needs her because Hillel does not listen to women. Her lover left her for his own quest. Now she has decided to leave the court and live in the country for a while. During the journey she reads a book that her lover suggested for her. Rana finds several parallels to her own life. Maybe the book can provide answers to help her figure out what to do with about her own problems. Or maybe her own pet dragon had the answer to it all.
