ⓘ About Joan He
Many centuries ago, the Eleven group overthrew the relic emperors who had their grip so tightened on the kingdom’s throat that its inhabitants knew nothing but misery. The Eleven came up with many philosophies to help them govern the territory, and these were gathered in a book called the Tenets. During that time, the Soothsayers acted as the emperor’s henchmen, and their magic had spread throughout the kingdom. To eliminate anything that favored the emperors, the Eleven eliminated all people with Sooth magic blood running through them. The palace is filled with people that Hesina cannot trust, which does nothing to help her situation. First, there is her mother. There is also her adopted siblings Ciayan and Lilian. These two are just as exciting as Hesina.
