Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy's life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to expereience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting bak the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.
