Set in a imaginative mythical kingdom with new interesting terms and traditions to learn. In a world of magic and fantasy but with a brutal competition with a human sacrifice. With only the wish of seeing the Palace, a weak Whisperer takes the name of her mother and poses as a master wizard. She then gets chosen as the eldest prince's companion escort in the Crossing and eventually the human sacrifice the heirs have to kill to succeed the throne.
The author does a great job in explaining the new terms and the culture of the country she made up as the story proceeds. The main character is an adventurous and carefree girl who wishes to escape her life as a boring stable girl and her wish is finally granted but it seems to become a little too thrilling as the human sacrifice in the Crossing.
