Our Lady of the Snow
 In the small kingdom of Vyskir it has become a pragmatic necessity for Prince Osiv, heir apparent to the throne, to marry. But only the royal family and the highest religiouses of the ruling cadre know that Osiv is a congenital simpleton. A bride must therefore be found who can be trusted to keep the secret of the prince’s affliction and play out the sham of her public role.
Nanta seems the perfect candidate. She is meek, docile, well-bred and beautiful, and the closeted life she has led in the convent of the Metropolis has trained her rigorously in obedience. But throughout her life Nanta has been haunted by ominous dreams in which the Lady of the Snow, consort of the god around whose worship life in Vyskir revolves, appears to her with terrible prophesies.
The priests have chosen Nanta to be a pawn in their political machinations. But Nanta believes that the Lady has chosen her for a very different task. And the name of that task is vengeance...
