After completing her first year of learning magic at Whitehall School, Emily accepts an invitation from Princess Alassa to accompany her on her progress back to her home country of Zangaria, where the princess may meet her future husband. Alassa, who was a spoiled brat before she met Emily, wants to show off her friend - and impress potential suitors. For Emily, it is a chance to relax and explore a world very different to Earth, meet new people and come to terms with her reputation in the Nameless World.

Per Emily il viaggio, oltre che motivo di svago, diventa occasione per esplorare un mondo molto diverso dal suo, conoscere nuove persone e venire a patti con la sua nuova reputazione in quel pianeta senza nome. Dopo la sua vittoria su Shadye, chiunque desidera vederla, parlarle, a volte addirittura sposarla o ucciderla. Per una ragazza introversa come lei, l'esperienza è alquanto sconvolgente. Non è mai stata corteggiata prima di allora, non sulla Terra.

Nach ihrem ersten Jahr auf der Zauberschule Whitehall nimmt Emily die Einladung von Prinzessin Alassa an, gemeinsam die Reise in ihr Heimatland Zangaria anzutreten, wo die Prinzessin vielleicht ihren künftigen Ehemann treffen wird. Alassa, die vor der Begegnung mit Emily völlig verzogen war, möchte mit ihrer Freundin angeben – und mögliche Heiratskandidaten beeindrucken. Emily kann ausspannen und eine Welt erkunden, die ganz anders ist als die Erde; sie kann neue Leute treffen und sich an den Ruf gewöhnen, der ihr in der Namenlosen Welt vorauseilt.

It's one thing to learn to curtsy properly. It's quite another to learn to curtsy and throw a knife at the same time. Welcome to finishing school. Fourteen-year-old Sophronia is a great trial to her poor mother. Sophronia is more interested in dismantling clocks and climbing trees than proper manners - and the family can only hope that company never sees her atrocious curtsy. Mrs. Temminnick is desperate for her daughter to become a proper lady. So she enrolls Sophronia in Mademoiselle Geraldine's Finishing Academy for Young Ladies of Quality. But Sophronia soon realizes the school is not quite what her mother might have hoped.
