This is a prequel to a series on syfy.  Here we meet 15 year old Riese.  She is a princess and heir to the throne of Eleysia but she is not all that interested in learning her royal duties.  She would much rather ride and hunt than learn how to be a proper lady.  While out one day, she meets a villager and she pretends to be a servant at the palace.  She escapes her lessons whenever she can so that she can spend time with Micah.  But when war breaks out, she must decide between her love of Micah and her duty as a royal princess.
