The Corinth that Princess Ruri grew up in was beautiful. The people were loving and boisterous, the kingdom virtuous and flourishing, and the cities inside it lived in harmony.
Now, it is not so.
Deadly rebels, who want to destroy the monarchy and bring chaos upon the kingdom, attack cities and innocent people. With attacks becoming more and more rampant, Ruri fears that something terrible is about to happen. Then when the rebels make a direct attack, she is left alone to fend for herself, along with her appointed knight.
Scared, weak, and out of options, Ruri can only be safe if she obeys one rule.
Survive.
She was banished and broken, everything ripped from her. Sent trudging back to where she came from. The land of humble beginnings.
Except...things aren't so humble anymore.
A new Royal Senate has made her home country theirs. And she's about to see how much things have changed.
If she thought her hardships were gone...she's about to get smacked with a harsh dose of reality.
Afterall,
Peace isn't something you're given; Peace is something you fight for.
