The Governor's eldest daughter stood tall and proud; a figure dark and statuesque in the waning light of dawn. Yet, her most striking feature were her eyes. Coal black in colour, they somehow shone with a fiery light. Terrifiyingly, her eyes remained calm and collected, despite the fact that the world was slowly burning down around her. 

During the peak of social unrest in her country,  a young woman is tasked with killing The Governor and his heirs. Her goal is to spark a revolution, in which her order's leader, Jehu, will gain power during the confusion.
