The story of Thornhedge revolves on a kind knight, a toad-shaped heroine, and a mission gone terribly wrong.
A princess is imprisoned in a tower. This is not her narrative.
Behold Toadling. She was taken from her family on her birthdate by fairies, but amid the warm seas of Faerieland, she was protected and adored as a child. But as adults, the fae beg Toadling for a favor: go back to the human realm and bestow upon a newborn infant the blessing of protection. Easy enough, huh?
However, nothing with fairies is ever easy.
A knight approaches a towering wall of brambles, centuries later, the thorns as sharp as swords and as thick as your arm. He has heard that this place is under a curse that has to be broken, but Toadling would stop at nothing to keep it that way.
