From Envy to Wrath

Nothing is stronger than family love. Or, that is what Angelica believed growing up in a large family with her father, Lord of the lands, her mother, sisters and brothers. The young lady found herself in the worst kind of situation when a rival clan attacked their castle. Fires broke out across the bailey, arrows consumed in fire flew over the castle walls and struck piles of hay, stables, workshops and homes inside the protective walls. Angelica heard cries for help and opened the door of a small crofter's hut nearby, just to have a backflash of flame lick outward from the building, catching her hair and gown on fire.
Though she screamed for help, everyone ran around, too busy to hear her. Scarred and hideous, she vowed to give herself to the church. A neighboring lord rode with her father. His brothers at his side. His intent was to answer a call from the King to visit in the hopes of finding a bride to make an heir for his own lands. While Angelica's trip to the abbey was the main purpose, Adi, Angelica's eldest sister, wished to ride too, since they would be going to court. Things go from bad to worse as Adi continued to sabotage her sister on the ride to court before the abbey.
Though their father wished to take Angelica to the abbey first, Adi convinced the entorage to first ride to the abbey. Accusations of witchcraft begin to surround Angelica, by no fault of her own. Perils meet her nearly the entire visit to the court, before, and even after. Would she survive the accusations and find herself nicely placed at the abbey, or did God and fate have a different plan for her?
