"I am assigning a guardian to ward you. His name is Roman. . . ."
Thus begins Surchatain Karel's explanation to his daughter,
ten-year-old Chataine Deirdre, as to why her life is about to
change dramatically. Karel's small country, Lystra, possesses the
only navigable river on the southern coast of the Continent. The
provinces that surround Lystra want its river trade, and will do
anything to gain it-even kill the heir to the throne. So, hand
selecting the most capable and trustworthy soldier he can find,
Karel places her life in his keeping.
Willful and spoiled, Deirdre sees this guardian only as another
servant. She teases and abuses him as he places his life on the
line for her day after day, year after year. Deirdre does not know
at what point she begins to love him. But Roman knows from the very
beginning that to love her will mean his death.
The Annals of Lystra begin with "Chataine's Guardian," continue in
"Stone of Help," and conclude in "Liberation of Lystra." The story
continues 100 years later in The Latter Annals of Lystra, which
begin with "Nicole of Prie Mer."
