| Review Summary |
When the village whore dies she leaves behind her fat daughter who doesn't even know her own name! Records reveal her name is Somerdai and she begins an arduous journey to find a promised husband. With her father's magic ring she finds she can speak to animals. She is joined by a foul-mouthed stray dog, a run down horse, a blind amnesiac knight, a messenger pidgeon with a broken wing, a tortoise and a winged pig. Each wants to find their home.
