Lassara and the Musician fell in love with each other but they knew their relationship was doomed before it even got started.

Her father would never allow this to happen. He would banish the musician from the kingdom or worse…. Lassara and her lover hatched a plan to escape the clutches of her father and the life he had planned for her. In the dark of night they planned to stow away and live happily ever after! They decide to set sail and escape via Carlingford Lough! They had no idea where their final destination would be! They had to pass Narrow Water Castle on their way to freedom and happiness ever after. The night was stormy and the Castle guards were on full alert, tipped off about an imminent raid on the Castle.
