A Heroine of the World
by Tanith Lee
"Lightning Strikes..."
The fortune teller had spoken the words, shown her the cards that predicted she would become the focal point of great events.
But now, a captive of those who had invaded her land, Ara could only wait, hoping to discover the true path of her destiny. But in a world ruled by the war, what chance did Ara have to attain her heart's desire? Carried far from her home, alone among strangers, only the will of the goddess, the Lady Vulmardra, could protect and guide her.
Yet the path the Lady had set her upon would lead Ara to the very heart of conflict. And though she might gain great wealth or lose it, become both pawn and player in the power games of princes and warlords, there was only one for whom she would risk everything, a soldier who some named traitor and others liberator, the man for whom she would strive to become a heroine of the world.
