Erin the Beast Player 1

Erin loves her modest but happy life with her mother, a gifted beast doctor who cares for the fearsome giant serpents that the kingdom's warriors ride into battle. But their world is turned upside down when the entire stable of the prized serpents dies overnight, and Erin's mother is saddled with the blame. Before she knows it, ten-year-old Erin is cast off in a faraway land where she must learn to survive with only her mother's words and the kindness of strangers to guide her.
