Synopsis
Priscilla, a slumborn child, was destined for a life of obscurity. Sheltered by her mother's adoration and beliefs, she remained blissfully unaware of the harsh reality of the slums she resided in, and the lengths her mother had to go through to keep her safe. Though young and naive, she had a virtuous heart full of overflowing kindness that illuminated the darkest depths of the backstreets.
Her idyllic existence however was shattered when her mother suddenly fell ill, leaving Priscilla alone and vulnerable in the world. Before despair could consume her, a man appeared at her slumhouse, claiming to be her long-lost father. Now, Priscilla Valentine, daughter of Duke Valentine, Heiress of the Valentine Duchy, and blood of the Ellis Imperial Family, found herself thrust into a new world, vastly different from her humble beginnings, yet also -- eerily similar.
The oppressive environment of the noble class was rife with deceit and hidden agendas. Survival was honed through every battle of wit and words. Cold, malicious glares were commonplace as the noble's pride was on full display, reigning supreme. Despite the challenges, Priscilla found happiness in her growth and the dazzling world she was in. Unfortunately, happiness could only be short-lived for her, as those she cared for turned against her. They labeled her a rebel, a traitor, and worst of all -- a witch.
Unfortunately for those people, words have power in this world, and they'll have to learn the hard way, that one should be careful what they wish for.
