## Characters

* **Madeline-** Madeline is a sixteen-year-old with Moonstone powers. She is the protagonist of the story. She is sweet and gentle. Due to her father being King Edmund of the Dark Kingdom, she is technically a princess, however she grows up in Corona and has no idea she even is royalty. She is isolated from the world, not allowed to leave her cottage and it's yard.
* **Varian-** Varian is the deuteragonist of the story and the main love interest of Madeline. He lives with his father Quirin, and next to Madeline, who lives on their property. They are childhood friends, and it has been recently revealed that they have romantic feelings for each other.
* **Leandra-** Leandra is a minor character in the series. She is a friend of Varian's and a sister of Rapunzel. She often flirts with Varian despite him having minimal interest in her and apparently having feelings for Madeline instead.
* **Annika Danproth-** Annika is Madeline's best friend, having discovered her by accident. They talk together about their feelings and ideas, and have become very close over the years.
* **Brylee-** Brylee is another one of Madeline's friends. She was introduced to her by Varian, and they are now close friends. Brylee is sarcastic and serious, although she does like to have fun at times.
* **Kyler-** Kyler is Brylee's twin brother. He is polite, sweet, and kind. Again, he was introduced to her by Varian.
* **Skye-** Little is known about Skye, other than that she claims to be the half-sister of Madeline, through King Edmund's first marriage. She comes across as threatening and athletically capable, and works for a mysterious "mistress". She wields a sword made out of the Moonstone rocks and has a wolf pack at her disposal.
