Yet, It's All Lies

Yeon Verbena, the cherished only daughter of the King and Queen of Verbena Kingdom, spent her entire life preparing for just one destiny, and that is to become the greatest queen the kingdom had ever known. She trained tirelessly even from a young age, mastering not just diplomacy and leadership, but also combat, and every duty expected of a future monarch. With an unwavering dedication and determination, she had just not earned the respect and admiration of nobles but also the commoners alike.

But on the very day that she was finally meant to ascend the very throne she spent her whole life preparing as the rightful heir, an unexpected calamity struck. Just moments before her coronation, the Kingdom's Prime Minister appeared with a mysterious young woman behind him.

With a boldness that stunned the entire court, he declared that this stranger was the true Yeon Verbena, claiming that the princess everyone knew and loved was nothing more than an impostor all along.

His accusation sent shockwaves through the palace. The ceremony was halted, the nobles murmured with each other in confusion, and the entire kingdom was thrown into chaos. And for the first time in her life, Yeon found the throne she had worked so hard for slipping from her grasp like water slipping through her fingers, it was not because she was unworthy, but because a single false claimant threatened to rewrite her entire identity.
