    A snippet from the novella:

    “Who are you?” Thomas whispered, not in fear but in wonder.

    “I’m Queen Aranara of the Hidden Realm, known here by many names, including Queen of Elphame. But you can call me Nara.” She told him.

    “In the flesh.” He whispered.

    “Are you afraid of me?”

    “Fear is for the stories.” He said, moving closer, lifting her hair to tuck it behind her ears. “No human imagination could do you justice."

    This is not your typical Thomas the Rhymer story.

    There are many variations of the Scottish legend of Thomas the Rhymer. None of them give you the backstory of the Queen of Elphame.

    This is her story.
