It’s the princess’s turn to do the saving!

Princess Livia stands atop the tall tower, prepared to scale down it and rescue her maid, Lily. The princess won’t stand to have the delicate Lily imprisoned for the simple crime of love. She’ll do anything for their forbidden love.

Even risk breaking her neck.

But scaling the tower is only the first task Livia has to complete. She’ll have to break Lily from her cell and flee the castle. If the guards catch her, the alarm will sound. She’ll only have one chance to escape with her lady love.

Can Princess Livia overcome the odds and rescue her sweet Lily?

Dated without standing out

Tropes can be both good and bad but unfortunately this story does not twist the tropes in a way that is neither clever nor original. A fairytale princess seeks to rescue her young lover by herself: clever. The overbearing mother queen that refuses her daughter’s autonomy: not so much.

The Princess has a goal and challenge set in front of her but the introduction dwells more so on her fear of heights rather than why she’s even doing it. The homophobic mother comes across as one dimensional rather than misunderstood or just evil. Even their societal foundations come across as being far too binary (day & night, order & chaos, man & woman) or entirely too simple.

The performance was unfortunately lacking. The reader comes across as too breathy, too lightly spoken which can help develop a Princess-like character but becomes repetitive bordering on annoying when used with a “tomboyish” girl…and all the other characters in the story. There is no tonal difference between the lovers or the queen, merely a breathy recreation of the written word.

Overall, this story is “okay” with a caveat it’ll take an hour to enjoy…if that’s possible.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
