Summary
A divine curse plagues the Cha Kingdom: ever since the emperor dared to slay the python god of waters, no man can ascend the throne. Thus began the era of empresses, a brutal succession marked by relentless power struggles against those who seek to control them.

As her sword is poised to strike, Kanghee’s captivating stories, drawn from forgotten books, stay her hand and begin to weave their way into her hardened heart.
