I’m just a poor miller’s daughter, but the most beautiful man I’ve ever seen finds me weeping by the side of the road, and takes pity on me. He gives me my first kiss and a gold coin, and tells me that if I can hang onto the gold coin for one year, he’ll return and make my dreams come true. Well, how on earth is a girl supposed to hang onto a gold coin when she’s freezing and hungry? Now the handsome man has returned and as it turns out, he’s a king—and my father tells him I can spin straw into gold, since…I might have told a few wild stories about where that damn coin came from. Now I’m locked in a tower by a king who knows I’m a liar who spent his coin, and if I can’t spin the straw into gold, I’ll face his punishment. He’s more of a jerk than I thought, but he’s the king, so what am I to do? Enter the Trickster Mage—a ragged, wild goblin sorcerer. He’ll teach me to spin the straw into gold but in exchange he asks for the most wicked bargain I can imagine—and I will learn the secrets of the most exquisite and horrible patience.
