Clamours and hoarse shouts ring throughout the palace walls. An arrow pins the Queen of Kephal to the ground. Her lifeblood maps her every mistake on the dusty sandstone.

Glass shatters, crystalline flecks refract tiny rainbows skywards, metal crumples against brick. Onlookers scream as the sirens ring. She never saw it coming.

Two seemingly unrelated events that would change the course of history. 

Allison, a twenty-something ditz with a sweet tooth gets stuck in the body of an ancient queen. Hated by her people, ostracized from the court and forgotten by the emperor. One wrong step could mean her death as she navigates court politics, flouts assassination attempts and tries to figure out what the hell is going on. Will she become a just, caring queen in a personality flip that gives the locals whiplash? Or will she instead focus on the more important questions: can I bake a cake in an ancient oven? Is coffee a thing around here? Is it too hot for a fluffy blanket?

Alternatively girl panics when she realises an ancient civilisation doesn't have chocolate and nearly gets executed. She's not sure what is worse.
