Lucy Kyre is a warrior princess who wants nothing more than the love and approval of her father, King Ormighand, who blames her for her mother's death. One day, while reading Kyren history, Lucy discovers a law that reveals an heir may be chosen by selection, not just by birthright. To ascend the throne, Lucy knows that she must be better, smarter, and stronger than her twin brother, Leo. She makes a binding contract with her father that states if she proves she is worthy of the crown, she will become Queen.

For years she struggles, enduring senseless torture from a 'witch-hunter' posing as an instructor, undergoing battle training, and as she gains influence, begins to start resolving the kingdom's spending and political relations with other nations.

Still, Leo is chosen to be King.

Lucy seeks out one last desperate attempt to change her father's mind. To do something that's never been possible, form a lasting truce with the southern magical Kingdom of Tramalia. Lucy goes on a spell-binding journey, exploring the world of Myrth, learning more about magic and the secret of Cryo energy. As she discovers more about its inherent power, she discovers a tribe of people who claim to be from another world, who reveal to her that she is a being of legend, of great power, and she must deliver them their freedom.
