Synopsis

Princess Brenna has been imprisoned by her ruthless uncle, Prince Zoran, who seized her rightful place on the throne. When the young princess manages to escape from the castle tower disguised as servant girl, she wants only to keep her freedom. In the forest near the castle, she meets a twisted old man named Quintag and a boy who is a juggler. Although this strange pair seems willing to help her, she wonders why they would risk the wrath of Prince Zoran for a mere servant girl. Alarmed by the dark riders that dog her trail, and dismayed by the knowledge that even Quintag may have betrayed her, she dares not entrust her life to anyone.

As Brenna searches bravely for her freedom, she learns to love and to trust, to accept a responsibility that she doesn't want, and to yield to God's will for her life.
