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?

"A rare opportunity you have, Princess. Since you have no reason to be here, you can either decide to go home or...fly away." 


She sucked in a deep breath and cradled the vase closer to her chest. 


Could she really just leave? Would that change it? Maybe she could really go away. She did have quite a lot of coins in her name. She swallowed a gulp in her throat, the thought was foreign and rebellious. She wasn't sure she could actually do it. 


Maybe she could do it with Kara! They mostly did risky things together like ensuring that she successfully sneaked out of her room to see Lewis even when her parents banned her from doing so. 


Her eyebrows knitted together and her voice was quiet, the excitement gone, "I do have a reason to stay here." 


"I..."she paused, then continued anyways, "Lewis. I have Lewis."
