She's had no choice. Since childhood, she's been haunted by visions of the Fairy King. She's found solace only in the pages of \u003ci\u003eAngharad\u003c\/i\u003e - a beloved epic about a mortal girl who falls in love with the Fairy King, and then destroys him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEffy's tattered copy is all that's keeping her afloat through her stifling first term at her prestigious architecture college.
