Diary of a (Runaway Prince) Bold Questing Hero

Prince Thony and his friends have saved all the worlds in the universe - now he needs to get back to his Bold Quest to find a princess to marry (with a wealthy and powerful father so he can bring troops back home to save his land. But first he has to visit Amanita’s homeland... where they don’t like guys too much**********It’s been a long journey already, and my Bold Quest has gotten nowhere.I mean, I’ve managed to Save the Known Universe and all, but the only princesses that I’ve run across so far are Julanna Silversea (who is a mom and a Bard, and I don’t think pirate-princesses count for this anyways) and Amanita - and just, no.And now I’m stuck on this other world and I don’t really know where to go next.Luckily (???) Puck has decided I’m going to go up with him and Amanita and her brother and their warrior escort back to Amanita’s homeland. Where there probably aren’t any other princesses around.Oh, well, at least it’s something to do. ********This epic fantasy explores the mysterious connections between Magick and Economics, Empire and Ethics, Friendship and Family... and of course, PRANKS!Want to start at the beginning? Book One of the Prankster Prince: Thony and the Much-Anticipated Adventure is available in print and eBook at all fine online retailers!******** Teaser: Day 20 of our journeySo, today Amanita was in a total grump and everyone tried to avoid her while we rode along what someone has finally explained is called the ’Tea Road.’ Apparently, that’s the name because the best tea is grown in that Darjil place where Valderon Raven’sWing enchanted the whole populace, and then it’s transported up here for sale around the world.Getting hold of a map has been nearly as hard as getting hold of a calendar.And, honestly, I could probably just ask, and someone would show me one or explain, or something. But there hasn’t been much of an opportunity to ask anyone. Commander Zaja likes it quiet at meals, and nobody goes against her. And I really want to see this stuff written down, so asking while we’re riding is probably not a good idea; I haven’t tried reading while riding yet, but my stomach gets tickly in a bad way, just thinking about it. Though Puck does it all the time, since Chillabiaen doesn’t need direction any more than Twinklestar does.Hunh. Which means if I could get over my guts, I could probably do it.Anyways, I’m going to try talking to Daffyd in a few minutes. If we whisper, maybe I can get some more details of what’s going on out of him. He seems to know what’s going on, but when he tried to explain last night, we got those girl-guards pounding on the door and telling us to ’quiet down.’Nanny-goats, all of them.
