Summary:

Zei just turned thirteen, and she's happy just where she is- spending her days working for her church. Suddenly, her father is murdered, and in her rage, she makes a huge mistake. 

Now she is forced to leave her secluded hometown, the only place she knows. As she escapes, she finds an unlikely ally in a disagreeable teenage boy, and together they travel to the Emerald Sky- the only place where she can be free of those who want her dead.

Throughout her journey, Zei encounters the poorest beggars and the highest nobility, and everything in between. She meets traveling circuses, muted men, and royal soldiers.  She questions her own beliefs for the first time, and tries to find her place in a world that she never knew existed.

&quot;One word. All you&#039;ve been saying is quite right, I shouldn&#039;t wonder. I&#039;m a chap who always liked to know the worst and then put the best face I can on it. So I won&#039;t deny any of what you said. But there&#039;s one thing more to be said, even so. Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things - trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that&#039;s a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We&#039;re just babies making up a game, if you&#039;re right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world which licks your real world hollow. That&#039;s why I&#039;m going to stand by the play world. I&#039;m on Aslan&#039;s side even if there isn&#039;t any Aslan to lead it. I&#039;m going to live as like a Narnian as I can even if there isn&#039;t any Narnia.&quot; <br /> <br /> in The Silver Chair, by C. S. Lewis
