Wessex, Britannia, 642 A.D.
Iris, Princess of Wessex, has run away from an unwanted marriage.
Britannia will never be the same.
With the fall of the Roman Empire centuries earlier, Britannia has been left to the hands of warring kings, and none is more feared or hated than Penda, the ruthless tyrant of Mercia. Determined to squash all opposition, Penda has threatened to destroy the small kingdom of Wessex unless the king hands over his eldest daughter Iris in marriage to Penda's nephew.
When Iris discovers these secret plans and threats, she runs away, and thus is sent on a whirlwind adventure across Britannia, accompanied by, among others, her worry-wart sister, a farm boy named Charr, and a mysterious messenger who isn't what he seems to be. Their goal? To appeal to the one force capable of stopping Penda's cruel regime, King Oswald of Northumbria. If they fail, Iris loses her freedom, her future, and the lives of those she holds dear.
When Irisa, the first prefecture princess of Hasten, a big city in the state of Kaley got betrothed to the first prince of Kaley, things didn't turn out as planned, she entered into Kaley's most powerful family, and with it, she got herself involved with a power struggle.
Things got intense as she got closer to her said husband and chaos ensued, with the power-hungry royal clan, spiteful royal women, corrupt minister, a mystery man helping her step by step to avoid all traps set for her, and a lying husband who seems all charming outside but dark and scary inside.
She couldn't understand how her once peaceful world became a chaotic world full of dangers everywhere. Nowhere was safe, not even in the safety of her home. As she continued to unravel the mystery behind Kaley's most powerful family, she found out that things were not as they seemed and all is not well.
