Ripley lost everything.
Her family. Her friends. Her village.
And the person she holds responsible is the King.
For ten years she has trained, honed her skills, and worked tirelessly towards her goal.
To kill him.
Ripley will have her revenge, she has a plan and when it comes to fruition, she will make sure he suffers for his crimes against her.
It is all that fuels her, all that drives her, but a part of her exists, a part of her she tries to suppress, that wants more, that wants to forge connections, relationships, a life with meaning outside of her hatred and anger.
A life she could lead if she could only let go.
Ripley will labour, she will learn, she will lie, and she will love, but at the end of it all, will she succeed, or will she fail?
