The Setting

The Setting takes place in a fictional medieval world.

It first takes place in a peasant village, but later takes place in a medieval castle. Its a big castle, with dozens of rooms, but the main character is usually in the great hall, which is like a cathedral, except that instead the benches are sideways and the place where the altar is supposed to be is replaced by two thrones. The three most important places are the castle (which I explained right now), the wizard's house, which the main character needs to go to get a magical object that will help her later in the story, and the dragon's lair, which she also needs to go to get another magical object.

The Main Character

The Main Character is named Giannine Bellisario.

She has brown hair, green eyes, a skinny but normal sized body, and a sweet face. She is a sarcastic yet sophisticated girl, that enjoys a good game and challenge, and knows how to get past obstacles. She is first rejected by the other characters, but after a while they start to appreciate and respect her because of her actions and her way of solving problems.
