They'd made a mistake, the men who wronged her. The forces which conspired to belittle her, a woman born to be nothing but a prize or a pawn, had been the tide that turned her into what she was.

OBSESSED WITH THIS! Read it in one sitting! Olivie Blake's writing is just too good. Elisabeth is one of the most badass characters I've read. It's hard to do a fantasy novella and not feel like you wish it had been longer. Obviously I loved this so I would've totally read more pages, but the story felt complete and not like it was too short.
