Caravan to Orendia — Carol Strote

Tall sky, a bright elf, and Melody, with her miniature dragon, Daisy, join King Aryantes caravan to help rescue Aksandan girls who were abducted by bitter elves and sold into sexual slavery in Orendia, where men view women as properties to be used for pleasure and for childbearing. Throughout their journey, the caravan was attacked by pirates, bandits, giant mantises, and demons sent by the kings adviser, an evil sorcerer named Ahriman. The rescued girls were in need of healing and counseling. They had been used and abused for eight months and had lost hope. On their journey home, the girls learn to trust, to forgive, and to have hope for the future.
