Escaping the Fortress: A Maid Maleen Retelling

Trapped in the fortress of Myrddin with only her maid for company, Maleena is there merely because she refuses to marry a man who loves another. Over the years, she has grown used to a quiet life. Then one day she finds a magical doorway within her tower to the forgotten faraway fortress of Caerwyn, in which lives a fellow faery, a man named Isegrim, who has been forced to wear an iron mask and iron shackles to conceal his face and mute his voice and magic. But Maleena has a secret she has told few others: she has the rare ability to read minds and discern truth, abilities so powerful they cannot be chained.

Now she has a reason to escape. But that is only the first problem. Will she be able to find a way to free him from his iron prison? Will she be able to discover who he really is? Or will they end up in the only fortress from which none can escape: the fortress of death?
