In a time long forgotten there used to be a mighty Empire, ruled by an emperor who was adored by his subjects.But one day he fell in love with a princess and wanted to own her, to marry. But the princess refused the emperor because she was in love with a prince from a different kingdom.
Her refusal did not only hurt his ego but also shattered his pride. He had never faced refusal before in his life, so he did what he would regret till the very last moment of his life. He attacked and destroyed the kingdom of the prince whom the princess loved and adored with all her heart.
After he captured and killed the innocent prince in front of the princess, she lost her mind begging and crying to the heavens to return her lover's life. But the heavens did not respond as she sat in silence watching her beautiful silk dress getting drenched with her lover's blood.
She wanted to unlive herself with the very same sword her lover was murdered in front of her very eyes, so the emperor could suffer the same fate as her watching the very person you love dying in front of you as you can do nothing but watch them helplessly dying slowly.
But that wasn't enough, she wanted to make him suffer, but it wasn't just him that she wanted to suffer but the whole world, the very people who cherished this monster they called their emperor, and everyone who watched her suffer silently.
So she cried and screamed until her heart turned as cold as the ice embracing the lifeless and dull body of her sweetheart, her piercing scream full of agony and pain filled the castle with horror.
They vanished her from the kingdom, disowned by her own flesh and blood. She was left alone and powerless, but this was not going to stop her from taking her revenge, from ruining the very peace of those who ruined hers.
Many years passed and everyone had forgotten about the injustice done to the princess and her lover. The emperor married a beautiful princess, who was also an excellent empress. But at times he thought about the princess he had hurt so much, he always regretted his decisions and cursed himself for hurting the only person he had ever truly loved.
Alone and lost after being expelled from her kingdom, the princess struggled to find her place in the harsh world. After enduring countless hardships, she stumbled upon the infamous witch, rumoured to be the queen of black magic. She saw the witch as her last hope for revenge.
The witch wasn't a scary ugly old lady, nor did the witch wear shabby clothes, and most importantly the witch wasn't a lady like she had always heard in the stories, the witch was in fact a very young, gorgeous and mysterious looking man.
Despite her desperation, the princess managed to convince the witch to take her under his wing as his sole student. Full of vengeance, she immersed herself in learning all the dark arts necessary to become a powerful witch herself, even if it meant destroying herself in the process.
