Get ready to be SHATTERED by this Strange and Lonely tale...
A curse was laid upon a land called Verren, where two sides kill to claim a crown for generations. Kings and queens of old have known this tradition very well, including Diamond Etrangeroi, a shy yet optimistic heir of the throne. He wishes to bring forth a change for his people.
Both sides are well aware of the rules and consequences of the duel, some wary and some elated. Enter Veralis Tristereine, unaware of her purpose and destiny. However, she too desires a different regime, one that is not ruled by fear and power.
In the end, only one can win the crown. Who will end up the victor? The odd king or the melancholic queen?
