Just before Kisate’s twenty-second birthday, she received word that the man she’d secretly loved for many years was now arranged to be her eventual husband, Takite Tanoti. Yet this news sets in motion a series of events that would not just be life changing, but ultimately instigates the destruction of the kingdom she was to rule. What was meant as a kindness to Asuza Nuueti, her primary servant and a man that long since had unrequited feelings toward her, will both save her and damn her. Explore the beginnings of the Riyati universe, back when the Ancient Kingdom of Riyati still thrived — and see Kisate, Takite, and Asuza as they once were, long before the events of Riyati Rebirth. Please note that there are potentially triggering subjects discussed during this novella, including: anxiety symptoms, arranged marriage, blood, classism, confinement, controlling parents, death, family conflict, incest, mention of violent murder of family members, murder, parental favoritism, and verbal abuse
