After living a undisturbed life for two years, the lurid second heir of the Wilhelmine throne, Princess Constance, hadn't a clue in the world what her life was meant for. Though time had a way of exchanging peace with uncertainty. With her brother's coronation coming up quickly, she was called to return to her childhood home. As her family's presence reentered her life in a seemingly strange and brash way, she examined the life she once lived in her parents court, and how it vastly varied from the life she lived after she left. Keeping a close eye on whatever daggers may be stuck in her back from returning to her childhood home, her life turns into a wake of anxiety and circumspectness.
Exchanging seething lies and conspiring against each other, powerful court families started to fall apart. When tragedy struck, without a moments notice, Constance had to latch onto the reigns that held her destiny in place.
