The Guardian's Exile

Elektra used to be a princess of the Yang Empire . . . until a year ago, when she ran away to become a mercenary. Though she returns home to celebrate with her family, she is banished for bringing shame to the royal family. Wandering south, she crosses the border into a different kingdom before a kindly nobleman takes her in. With nothing else to do, Elektra embarks on the path of Tellkahta's elite warriors, and finds where she truly belongs.
