Lilley's first encounter with her legendary sword, Stain.

Once every twenty years in the kingdom of Saiochi, a bride is offered up to the Never King, a monster with a skull for a face. No one ever sees the bride's again, usually because they are devoured by the Never King's appetite. This year, Rhyella Kaori's village is chosen to produce the sacrifice. Rhyella believes she has nothing to fear, because she is engaged to her best friend in a marriage of convenience to further her dancing career. However, no one is spared from becoming the monster's bride. When Rhyella is forced to become the Never King's bride, she knows she must face the beast, as well as a dark and painful secret that could threaten to tear everything they desire away from them.
