The daughter of Persinia has been alone all her life, tucked away in a forgotten corner of the imperial palace with her sole maid as she spends her days reading books and attending a mandatory ball once in a while. Life is quiet for the most part...that is, until one day, she stumbles upon a book in the library that predicts the future! And this one says she will die when a lost princess shows up in a few years and all of her siblings will kill her to protect their new, favorite sister! Now our princess realizes that if she wants to live, she has to be strong enough to do everything herself - wield aura to counter dark ones, wield magic to protect herself from evil wizards, and know alchemy to protect herself from a poison-happy consort of the emperor keen on making sure her son is the last one standing as heir to the throne. In an empire waging an eternal war against the darkness just to exist, our princess finds herself picking up new skills, new friends, new enemies, and a lot more importance in the palace than before all while trying to just make herself unkillable so she can live silently reading books. Will she be able to unravel all the mysteries of the world that she wants to, or will all of the tasks the emperor asks of her and the troubles she creates for herself keep her from existing in peace? Will she be able to escape the palace before the "silver lady" of that book appears, or is her death inevitable? Well...Mephie doesn't really care, to be honest. She just wants everyone to stop bugging her so she can finally finish the latest book she's been reading...especially those annoying knights...and, well, everyone else too.
