    About this ebook

    This is Part I of a short, general fiction tale about a beautiful maiden who lives in the magical Kingdom of Epania, A Land of Dragons. She is a very selfish and very lazy young lady who only thinks about herself and no one else. She has been cautioned by her family not to let her hair ripple the water when she's sitting down by the Jade Lagoon combing her tresses. She fails to take heed of the warnings and the Nymph of the Jade Lagoon casts a strong spell on her to teach her a valuable lesson in life. The only way to remove the spell is for a brave and gallant prince to rescue her from herself. This occurs in Part II which will follow shortly.
