Kept to the Shadows

"Keep to the shadows," is what the four orphans: Wayde, Dell, Cameron and Kyi have been told all their lives. Now they are being thrust into a world where clothing, meals and housing will no longer be provided. One full of high-bloods that are free to do anything they please to indentured serfs. At the same time, King Vianor is taking his spoiled son, Crown-prince Acthiel, with him on his annual tour in hopes of making him see serfs aren't his personal playthings.When unexpected tragedy befalls the kingdom, alliances are questioned, plots are hatched, and the role of the prince and the former orphans will become uncertain.
