introducing nell o'dell

Despite being the daughter of famous questers, Nell O'Dell wants nothing to do with the melodramatic world of magical adventuring. But when a valuable item is stolen from her, she finds herself with all the trimmings of a classic quest---an excitable partner, an animal companion, a mystical amulet, and a handful of dragons to boot.
