The Phoenix

After the death of the late King Francis, news spread around the country as the newly crowned Queen Eliana of Scotland returns back to a land she once called home. Alongside her sister, Mary Stuart, they soon realize that the country they once called home, was no longer what they imagine it to be. Fight for family and country, Eliana must make sacrifices in order to make sure that the faith her country had in her family once, does not take the last bit of hope everyone has died along with them. Terror and torture had haunted her people for so long, that the powerful men and woman that once stood up for what was right, were scared. After finding a mysterious man chained up against a brick wall who is said to have been one of Marie De Guise's last and only surviving victims, it is up to Eliana, and her brother, James, to find out who the mystery man truly is. But can she protect both family and country without losing one or the other? Or will the anger she has been holding back for so long overcome her. With the help of her husband, her brother, and the people in her court, Eliana must show her enemies and allies, just how strong she really is, after being kept in hiding in France for so long.
