Description

Fourteen-year-old Kira survives alone by disguising herself as a boy until she strikes a deal with a mysterious force for a male voice. This bargain opens a path from poverty into nobility, where she becomes a page to a powerful lord. Through hardship and training, Kira rises from servant to knight, leading soldiers into battle and earning respect through her own strength. Yet she remains trapped as a chess piece in the schemes of those with real power, with little say in her own future. As the forces around her move toward their own goals, Kira must decide whether she can seize control of her destiny or remain forever at others' mercy.
