A True Princess is loosely based on the classic fairy tale “The Princess and the Pea.” In this story, Lilia must save her best friend Kai from a terrible enchantment caused by their perilous encounter with the Elf-King and his beautiful daughter. The only way Lilia can break the spell is to find a mysterious jewel of ancient power hidden somewhere in the North Kingdoms. But the castle where the jewel lies is caught up in a different kind of search — the search for a true princess!
