Paladins Series Finale: In the great kingdom of Gascony, in the cliffside city of Ambraude, there is a queen and king who have sworn to use their power and influence to protect and serve their people and country. Even against themselves.
Manon, newly crowned Queen of Gascony, has trained her entire life for this moment, and still finds herself woefully unprepared. Her people hate her, her staff are trying to kill her, and the peace she traded her life and hand for is at risk. The only joy she has in her life now is her husband. A man she married out of obligation and necessity. A man she doesn't know from a stranger off the street. A man that makes her heart flutter and her belly ache with longing. If only everything and everyone in his life wasn't trying to kill her, it might be a happy marriage.
Jacques, newly crowned King of Gascony, has fought his entire life for this moment, only to find that it's trying to take everything he loves away from him. His kingdom is ripping itself apart, he can't trust even the people he's known the longest, and his wife, the one he's sworn to protect above all others, is at risk just by living. How can he serve his people when they seek to take away the only thing he ever wanted for himself?
