Filomena Baker is a novice writer who started writing at a young age (usually about mermaids going grocery shopping!). She loves to read all types of books, quality ranging from great to mediocre. Once, she got an award from her middle school for reading too much and for getting away with it. She's lived in the Bronx her entire life, but her family hails from Venezuela. She spends most of her time listening to music and obsessing over superfluous things. She is currently a junior in high school.
The leader of an ancient tribe, tired of her war-ridden world, ignores the battle that looms behind her. But the death of her lover forces her to commit one final flight for peace.
