She's a Princess of a long-forgotten land, and the life she's had thrust upon her is really starting to get on her nerves. Maybe that's why she's been acting so strange?
With a world-conquering psychopath on her tail, a soulmate that she can't stand most of the time, and a kingdom in ruin; Mercy must navigate the perils of her new life. She and her band of misfits must put their differences aside in order to save a world she cannot remember -
But everything is not always as it seems.
