I can't promise you anything with this story; it'll be lucky to be updated once a month, though I will try my hardest to update it! Thanks for taking the plunge with me into my new story. Kel will have someone to love, but I'm just not telling. This will be a multi-chapter story, and the chapters will be much longer.
DISCLAIMER: Everything belongs to Tamora Pierce, though I would love to have Dom….tee hee.
Summary: Kel becomes a shang instead of being knighted, opting not to follow her brothers' footsteps. When problems arise in Tortall she must come back a full shang and help, not knowing that love and adventure wait around the corner. Not typical shang T 4 safety
Prolouge: Destiny
Keladry of Mindelan knew from an early age that she wanted to be a warrior. She didn't want to settle for being like her sisters and going to a convent where she would be bred for marriage.
No, little Keladry wanted more.
When Kel turned four, she made the biggest life-changing decision that a four year old can make. She asked her parents if she could be a Shang. Knowing that her brothers were all knights had put Kel off the idea of becoming one, though she would love to become a knight she wanted to be different and bring the name of Mindelan into a different realm of fighting.
With her parents' approval, the four year old departed from the Yamani Islands, her current home, not to return to Tortall or The Islands until she became a shang.
Not knowing she was destined to do great things…
As I said above, thanks so much for reading this. I know at some point in this story you will get frustrated with me on my updating…I am a Junior in highschool, my toughest year…and I am really trying to letter in track. Thank you for dealing with me…
This chapter is just a little touch of what's to come…not a full chapter more like a prologue!
HAPPY LEAP DAY!
