Gwenivar nodded to the man with a smile. “I’m glad we could reach an agreement. I hate to see children suffering. Did the investigation find who was responsible for the fire?” Bird shook his head. “I fear not. It was likely an accident. Loose fibers in the air easily combust, and putting out an entire building full of cotton is impossible.” She sighed. It wasn’t as if she had expected a different answer. The City Guard was more competent than the Palace Guard, but only because the City Guard captain was formerly Hunter's Guild. Though rumor had it that Sir Owen frequently assisted whenever disputes arose with the Hannish population. One day… I’ll reform this whole system, she promised herself, reminded of Sir Owen’s current plight. She glanced left, spotting Knight Commander Kelvin speaking to Archduke Harthford. The least he can do is make it less obvious. It was a shame the Archduke looked so much like Dunn. His personality was rotten to the core. Harthford's eyes narrowed at them. Count Bird politely nodded at the archduke in return. “Don’t worry about him, my dear.” His smile wasn’t reassuring. Count Bird was part of the Aristocrats and on the council, but Gwenivar had hoped his business experience would entice him to consider joining the Progressives. Instead, it seemed he had accepted Gwenivar’s assistance with his fabric factory disaster only as a means to draw her close. She expected the next words out of his mouth would be about his son. “Have you met my son?” Count Bird asked. “He’s a darling child. I’ve seen him occasionally play with his friends in town.” She didn’t like telling on children, but Bird was sorely mistaken if he thought she would consent to marry a twelve-year-old just to become a countess. She was already going to receive that title from her father.

Her kingdom is fruitful, her weather fair. She wants nothing more than to escape and explore the world beyond her castle walls. Yet, as the Soul Heir, the reincarnation of her people’s king, heavy expectations root Princess Kezerah in place. To lead her people, she must embrace her magic and maintain peace. A challenge made more difficult by the decade-long war that batters either side of her kingdom’s borders. She is expected to maintain her kingdom’s treaty to uphold peace with a show of complete neutrality. Neither the northern Kingdom of Alora nor the southern shores of Xenkesh may receive an ounce of favoritism. Kezerah balances these duties with uneven footing, up until the day both heirs —warring brothers—of the neighboring kingdoms arrive at her Autumn court. Each brother demands not only her allegiance but her affection, and Kezerah must decide which path she will take to create the future she desires.
