Tina & PeterTina Himmel and Peter Frimmel were unfortunate enough to have been born to dukes, who decided at their births that their eventual marriage would solidly unify their dukedoms. Tina and Peter are forced to obey their orders and spend separate lives of constant lessons on courtly behavior to prepare them for their lives together as Duke and Duchess. But strong-willed Tina wants to learn all about nature and life, while equally strong Peter has an insatiable passion for poetry. They do not tamely accept their fates and go on a quest to flaunt their fathers' intentions. The story unfolds against the backrop of a joyless castle and an enchanting forest.
