"Ana
thought of certain acient stories: of captives held in high towers
or behind impenitrable hedges, of heroes scaling walls or hacking
through briars and brambles to liberate true love. For every such
tale of quests fuffilled, she suspected there was another,
forgotten by people, lonely prisoners and fair ladies grown
wrinkled and faded as they waited for a deliverance that never
came."- Juliet Marillier, "Blade of Fortriu, The Bridei
Chronicles, Book Two"
