Lady Marie Oriole, daughter of a count with territory in the frontier, had her engagement broken off by her fiancé, Georges Mirabeau, in the dining hall of the Noble Academy.

Their relationship had already become strained and irreparable, so Marie readily accepted, left the academy early to go to her fiancé's home, and the engagement was formally dissolved that very day.

Feeling increasingly uncomfortable due to the prevailing notion that the frontier equated to being a bumpkin, she decided to seize this opportunity to withdraw from the academy and retreat to her territory.

While the Oriole Earldom and the Fortrell Marches cannot secede from the kingdom due to a magical pact, Marie resolved to minimize their involvement with the capital and pursue their own independent path.

Following the novel's conclusion, an intricate character relationship chart, detailed character profiles, and maps will be provided.
