Description
In a kingdom ruled by an immortal tyrant, his daughter Princess Adelaide has lived her whole life in privilege, the apple to his eye. She believed her father's actions were for the greater good, and that his immortality was a gift from the godess. But when she discovers the horrifying truth of her father's immortality, that's sustained by draining the life force of his subjects-her faith in him begins to crack. Destined to inherit both the throne and her father's curse?.. power?... gift..? Adelaide is torn between her undying loyalty to her father and atrocities he commits in the name of order. Determined to break the cycle, she seeks out a forbidden magic-a dark sorcerer to destroy him, risking her soul in the process. But as she delves deeper into the dark arts, and the cunning wizard who has knowledge in it, her humanity slipping away with every step. Now, she must decide: Can she save her kingdom without becoming the monster whom she seeks to destroy? Or will she lose herself entirely in the fight against her beloved father?
