Damsel

In Damsel, a young woman confronts a dragon and challenges the fate of her kingdom, transforming from a pawn into a powerful heroine.

In Damsel, Elodie is not your typical princess waiting to be rescued. Growing up in the impoverished realm of Inophe, her primary concern is the survival of her people. When a representative from the affluent kingdom of Aurea offers her family a chance at salvation in exchange for her hand in marriage, Elodie makes a bold choice. She leaves behind her humble beginnings for a life of luxury, but soon realizes that all that glitters is not gold. As she prepares to become a princess, unsettling truths about Aurea begin to surface.

The seemingly perfect kingdom harbors dark secrets, including a chilling tradition that demands the sacrifice of its princesses to a ferocious dragon. Elodie discovers that she is next in line for this grim fate. As the reality of her situation sets in, she reflects on the stories of the women who came before her, each of whom faced the dragon with courage. Their legacy is not just one of despair; it is also filled with strength and resilience.

Determined to change her destiny, Elodie must harness the power of those who came before her. In Damsel, the narrative unfolds as she confronts the dragon, unravels the mysteries of Aurea's past, and ultimately fights not only for her own survival but for the future of her kingdom as well. This gripping tale redefines the classic damsel in distress trope, showcasing a heroine who takes matters into her own hands.
