Summary
Nike always knew that marrying a king would be fraught with difficulties. Still, when she finally marries Livius I and becomes Queen of the Sun Kingdom at the age of seventeen, she hopes that their life together will be happy and worth the long wait.
Livi understands what it's like to rule over an empire at only fourteen years old. The past three years have been spent fighting with all the dissidents that oppose his rule and his engagement to Nike Remercier, the fourth princess of the Rain Duchy. He hopes that the rhetoric of balance will be enough to ensure some political peace in their married life.
Talea, a young courtier, has never known such happiness as she has in service to Princess Nike. But soon after the royal wedding, she's being sent abroad to live with her sister. She hopes that life in the Ocean Kingdom will prove to be just as effective an escape from her family's ambition.
Three lives, three destinies, all linked together by forces outside their control.
