Set in an alternate universe wherein Shanaiah is a privileged young woman who came back to her own country after five years, to come up with an answer her professor left her- who is she? Set to find the answer to that simple question, Shanaiah disappears instead after she unearthed a secret that might cause an uprising within her country. She was presumed dead but she's still alive, right under the wing of a secret movement who has the same aim as her- to unveil the secret she had discovered. Orion is Shanaiah's personal bodyguard and a co-member of the secret movement, whose life is solely to protect Shanaiah's- or so he thinks.
