(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Iacopo Bruno. Princess Violet and her best friend (the stable master's son) discover a hidden room in the castle, with murals hinting at the forbidden story of "the thirteenth god." They unwittingly set into motion events leading to that evil god. Barnhill is willing to show even her most sympathetic characters governed by the worst in their natures, making the triumphant conclusion all the more satisfying.
