After the death of her parents, the assassination of the king and queen, Cassandra Oleah is set to become the next queen of Plora, the Land of Life. Though, before she can even be crowned, Cassandra is met with troubles. The suspicious deal she makes with her strained allies leaves Cassandra housing the prince of the Land of Fire, Prince Griffin Astor of Saunin. Not only does she despise his Land, but the prince himself. 

Aside from her complicated relationship with the prince, Cassandra uncovers the truth of her parents death, an inside attempt to overthrow her, and the real reason King Astor sent his son to live in the castle. 

With her upcoming coronation, Cassandra must bear the weight of her Land, and an upcoming war. Though, for once, she is not alone as she conquers the Realm of Cartos.
