    Summary

    In the year 1185, Emperor Edelgard von Hresvelg invades the Leicester Alliance and takes its capital by force. Both the Sovereign Duke and the daughter of House Goneril fall to the Emperor’s men. In their deaths, the story of a free and brave Alliance ends.

    But for Hilda, the most important tale begins in the hours before the fall during an evening shared in Claude’s bed. Despite what the bards later sing, she survives the death of Leicester, and so does her unborn child. She flees from her Imperial captors to hide in a humble country life, fearing the threat that the Emperor might find in a martyred duke’s son.

    Eight years later, a snowstorm blows the newly-crowned King of Almyra and his westward-traveling entourage off course. They find shelter in a rural homestead ruled by a little boy with their king’s green eyes.
