    Summary

    Raised as a servant to your half-sister, you find yourself engaged to the king of a long-dead warrior race to keep the peace between your two peoples.
    The FMC, Isha, is described as having broad shoulders and strong legs, hip dips, curly hair, and a soft belly. Her hair/skin/eye colour is left non-specific.
    As usual, I will mention additional (and more specific) content/trigger warnings at the beginning of each chapter but generally, they are as follows:

    Minor spoilers

    repressed sexual desire, sexual guilt, pregnancy and miscarriage, illness/poison, familial mistreatment, misogyny, sexist value systems, and domestic abuse. There are also scenes of intense language and sexism, antiquated attitudes towards sex and women, and descriptions of medical procedures.

    Mando'a language/ phrases from here
    Translations for Mando'a will be included in end notes unless a translation is provided in the current (or later) chapters. Chapters written from an alternate POV will be marked with an asterisk in the title.
