Synopsis
“Even in the depths of despair, where the heavens seemed to collapse, she endured. And the heavens granted her a second chance.”
Baek Gyeong-eon, the eldest daughter of the Baek family of Jingukgongbu—a military household devoted to protecting the people and the nation—once lived a life of duty and loyalty. Yet her family was destroyed.
It was a conspiracy of the imperial court, born from suspicion of the Baek family’s loyalty and envy of their influence. And it was the betrayal of the prince who had sworn his love to her, who promised to protect her.
But the heavens granted her a second chance.
Though in this life as well all the men of her family perished, she resolved to save what remained—her mother and younger sisters, her last surviving kin.
Facing relentless pressure from the imperial court and the constant threat of war with foreign nations, she fought desperately to protect her family and her people.
For the sake of Baek family’s survival, she was willing to do anything—
even if it meant overthrowing a corrupt imperial court and unifying the world.
