I do not own any of the characters, just the story. I wanted to publish my own take of the events leading up to and just after Tara was crowned Queen. I've watched the film Epic a million times and I fell in love with Ronin and Tara. I really wished these characters could be together. This is a story of their romance and their many adventures together.

What happens when there is a rival for one's affections? This is a story inspired in part by a fan follower who informs me of Ronin being different from those of Moonhaven. It is a story of unrequited love and more, of a lady warrior (a female Leafman) falling for Ronin and a neighboring ruler wanting the Queen for his own at whatever cost. Can Ronin protect his one true love?

This is my version of the events of how Ronin met young Nod and how Nod's father (who I named Don) ended up in Wrathwood. Both Don and Ronin are in their 20s. In the movie Epic 2013, Ronin mentioned that he had been to Wrathwood once before with Nod's father. This story aims to tie that particular loose end. I do not own any of the characters, just the story. Enjoy!
