Beatryce预言

在一个饱受战争蹂躏的中世纪世界,BEATRYCE预言宣布“有一天会有一个女孩的孩子将会推翻国王和带来巨大的改变。”It comes in a moment of inspiration to kindhearted Brother Edik, whose religious order is charged with receiving and writing down such messages as they're revealed. When word gets out, it doesn't please the king, whose claim to the throne is less than legitimate, so he sets out to seize the unknown child and kills a lot of people in the process. Among them are two young boys from a noble family and their tutor -- but their 10-year-old sister survives and finds her way to the monastery. Thanks to a protective, ill-tempered goat and also to Brother Edik, she finds brief refuge but also learns of a new danger: In the world where she now finds herself, it's forbidden for girls to learn to read and write. And she's very good at both.
