#ONC2024 has officially begun!
I did a random wheel-picker this year. I put in the #numbers of my top favorite prompts, and this novella will be based on:
This novella will be character-driven fantasy novella, and yes, there will be some romance.
Blurb: When Prince Oskar decides to disguise himself and goes out into the village to see what the people are like, he is met with a shocking sight. There are orphaned children in the streets, beggars at every corner, and people fighting for their next meal. The kingdom of Unara has never seen poverty and the royal family looks out for the people. Why is this village struggling?
As Oskar returns every day, he befriends one of the village's deformed members. A young woman with multiple scars on her face. Taking pity on her, the prince gives her one of the rings on his fingers, intending for it to bring her a better life. However, the woman is soon arrested for being in possession of this ring and Oskar knows she is innocent. Until he discovers she possesses a ring with the Unaran royal crest. This is not the ring he gave her.
As usual, I will create a Pinterest board for inspiration and if it's not already, I will link it in the comments here: ►
