Beautiful sixteen-year-old Elaine has a temperament as fiery as her long red hair. The daughter of a soldier in young Arthur's army. Elaine is the sole girl in a militaristic world of men. Often slipping into daydreams, she wishes that the handsome Lancelot would see her as more than a tomboy.
Then a new girl arrives, and Elaine is thirlled-until Gwynivere proves to be cold and cruel. But when Elaine and Gwynivere are thrown into a situation of gravest danger, the girls must band together in order to survive. Can Elaine find the strength to fight for the kingdom she has always believed in?
heart LYING, ROBED IN SNOWY WHITE
THAT LOOSELY FLEW TO LEFT AND RIGHT~
THE WAVES UPON HER FALLING LIGHT~
THRO' THE NOISES OF THE NIGHT
SHE FLOATED DOWN TO CAMELOT:
AND AS THE BOAT~HEAD WOUND ALONG
THE WILLOWY HILLS AND FIELDS AMONG,
THEY HEARD HER SINGING HER LAST SONG,
THE LADY OF SHALOTT.
~"The Lady of Shalott"~
by Alfed, Lord Tennyson, 1842 heart
