On Diamant's 14th birthday, the strangest thing happened. A witch had almost killed her while warning her to stay away from the past. Diamant and her grandpa were people who lived on a survival skill of running and hiding from an unknown that relentlessly chased after them and threatened their lives. 

One night, this skill of Run and Hide met its end at the hands of a war brought upon their village by the mighty King of Alusa, the Dragon Lord. Having lost everything in the war, Diamant is driven by rage and grieve to seek revenge against the King. This is no easy task as she will get entangled in lies, conspiracy, betrayal, love, war and magic. In all these, she discovers there are important questions about her life that only the past has answers to.

Will she delve into the past to seek these answers which may cost her everything including her life? Or will she face the present, forgo knowing these answers and live the life she is struggling to build for herself?

"What are you doing here?" Diamant exclaimed. It wasn't even time to leave yet, was it? 


"Our carriage will be waiting at the Moon's Bench. Your name will go by Ania and I will go by Giston. Aliyah has written a letter, they will be waiting for us and they presume that we are married. That way we are going to share a room and able to watch each other's backs. The letter says we are from the Stone clan, Aliyah has written the letter so well, important people from a lot of places are going to Canilus for the yearly festival so we won't be suspected. Also, a lot of preparations have been made to secure our fake identity." Roc said all of these only after ensuring that no one was in the room and the door was firmly locked, still he said it all in a whisper. "We are been sent to Dimitri, Canilus' minister of external affairs. I was sent to tell you all these before our departure." 


Diamant nodded as she walked a little distance away.
