Raised in the traditional culture of the thalassic isles, Merida had been deeply impacted by their apocryphal folklore. She truly believed in the Collapsed Kingdom and fully intended to uncover it.
Her eyes, the most striking feature of her face, sparkled passionately as she saddled her mare for the journey.

And so a star is born
What an action packed short piece of fiction writing
Naming the island after the prompt fits in perfectly with the apocryphal journey.
I’m just concerned if the uniform of the rider is fit for purpose though.
