Ana has both beauty and intelligence, and realizes the way to remain close to her beloved mother is to make herself ugly. So she does--eating all the wrong foods, not bathing, growing her hair out in tangles. And it works.
But the Queen's Beauty Consultant informs Her Majesty that Ana may be beautiful yet. Ana is sent away to the academy of Ran to study with beautiful girls, including Ana's best friend. But if everyone else is beautiful, why was she sent there? What could the Queen be planning?
