Lysandra Kawasaki, the bastard child of a renowned Japanese pharmaceutical CEO and his Ethiopian mistress, grew up facing abuse, ridicule, and ostracism due to her parentage. She worked diligently in the offices of her father's company, utilizing her natural talents in nature and science to boost the company's stature. Despite her efforts, her contributions were never acknowledged, and her only purpose was to atone for the shame she brought for simply existing. 
However, things took a dark turn when her half siblings conspired against her, and ultimately assassinate her due to her latest medical discovery. But in her moment of death, Lysandra Kawasaki is reincarnated as Zephira, the outcast tribal princess of last tribe of sorcerers; cursed with mysterious powers bestowed upon her by a long-forgotten spirit. This spirit, an ancient entity of immense power, was once subjugated and deceived by Zephira's father, the tribal chief Zaaron, in his youth. In a desperate bid to win a war against the Emperor of the Southern Region of Eldoria, Zephira's father harnessed the spirit's power, securing victory but incurring a terrible cost.
Born into a life of abuse and neglect, the tribal princess was shunned by her own kin, who saw her powers as a curse. Desperate to maintain peace and avoid the subjugation they once faced again, Zephira's father decides to sacrifice his daughter in a political marriage to the Grand Duke of the North; the Southern Emperor's Sword.
 The path to power and self-acceptance becomes a treacherous one, as Zephira must navigate the intricate web of imperial intrigue and her own destiny, all while holding the key to the ancient force the empire so desperately craves. 
Will she be able to persevere and make a place for herself in this New Enchanting World? Or will she succumb to her Fate from her past regrets?
