Princess Emara Millenis of Ventilles expected to get engaged today. What she did not expect was the army of brutal mercenaries that invaded her kingdom. With her family imprisoned and a tyrannical new rule beginning, Emara is visited by one of the elusive Zodiacs- the twelve immortal guardians that watch over the kingdoms of Essentia. Barely escaping her own palace with her life, she now has one chance to save her family and people: Armed with the Zodiac blade Sevenbright, she must cross the treacherous Essentian wilderness to retrieve an ancient artifact that just might help her defeat her pursuers. As Emara begins her journey, an ancient malevolence is waking, and darkness swirls on the horizon. Her efforts may be the only thing that stands between her homeland and a divine war centuries in the making. Fortunately for Essentia, Emara may not be the hero they expect, but with a little help and a little luck, she might just be the hero they need.
