To Sit Above All

In a forgotten countryside of the Valthern kingdom, where the fields are dry and the air tastes like dust, a nameless orphan survives by silence and stolen scraps, living in the cracks between dying villages and indifferent nobles. Her world is one of hunger, shadows, and survival—until the cycle broke the day a noble’s carriage rolled through her dying village. A fateful encounter with a noble lady—a flicker of silk and gold—unleashed a chain of events that would scatter her world to the wind. When bandits fell upon the village in the dead of night, they left no survivors, no kin, no mercy. Dragged into darkness, she found herself caged among the broken and the lost. Yet, in that pit of despair, darkness, blood and death, an old shaman whispered of a future she would never have imagined, and she whispered a name. From a nameless street rat in a forgotten village to a shadow that moves kingdoms, her journey will span the underworld, the military, the courts, and the deepest chambers of power. What they stole, she will reclaim. What they held, she will one day rule.
