Synopsis
Reincarnated knight Lyse hides her past while navigating imperial politics and an unexpected engagement.
Qatora was once a valiant knight of the Razanate Empire who gave her life in service to the crown. Through mysterious circumstances involving an ancient power, she finds herself reincarnated as Lyse Winslette, the humble daughter of a poor baron in a neighboring kingdom. Now living a quiet life as a lady-in-waiting at the royal palace of Olwen, Lyse is determined to keep her past identity secret and maintain her distance from the empire she once served. Her carefully constructed new life faces its greatest challenge when she's unexpectedly chosen to attend the visiting Razanate emperor. This chance encounter threatens to unravel everything she's built, as she finds herself drawn into imperial politics once more. When circumstances lead to an unexpected engagement to a mysterious imperial knight, Lyse must navigate court intrigue while guarding her secrets—and discovering that her fiancé may have mysteries of his own.
