When the Empire sails to Tacree and lays waste to the shape-shifters, there are few survivors. Princess Rosabel will realise her destiny on her journey to save the remnants of her people.*****Princess Rosabel of the Tacree Kingdom has always known what her duty is; protect her people, marry the prince, and become the greatest shape-shifter to have ever lived since the Mother was created. With her father guiding her and her path set for her, deviation was never an option.But when the crimson and black sails of the Sharlik Empire block out the setting sun on the Blood Ocean, Rosabel's commitment to her duty will be tested, as will her people's faith in her.The young princess will go on a journey to save her people, a goal she may not be ready to undertake. But if her people have any hope of survival, Rosabel will have to realise her power and that she's bound by flame.*****A book written for NaNoWriMo 2020, this will be very rough and raw as a first draft with minimal planning. This story is a side novel beside the Flame in the Veins trilogy and is based before the trilogy. It's recommended to have read Flame in the Veins before reading this because of spoilers for that book, but this book is a standalone so it's not crucial.Cover made by me.…
