After a turbulent succession crisis, the dust reluctantly settles: Queen Katherine is to rule Ilworth and Otterdon Island. She does not just inherit the crown and the responsibility for her people, but instead she earns herself a spot in an insidious political climate that nobody could have prepared her for. participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge so currently posting perpetually! What to expect ▾ Court intrigue with complex political landscape spanning multiple fictional countries and dynasties each with a fleshed-out culture and history ▾ Chaotic cast of characters with strongly opposing goals ▾ A very long journey with countless twists and turns ▾ Whirlwind romances and slow-burns ▾ Lots of banter! ▾ Occasional, not explicitly described violence (I'll always put an author's note before chapters that have violence!) and down the line, sexual content. I haven't put up the CW for it yet because the current story doesn't have any. All I'll say is: await the end of Writathon ;)
