SYNOPSIS
Following the death of her fiancé, the first princess, Lucia, returns to her home country. Upon her return, she finds herself subjected to daily harassment by her younger sisters, who are vying for the throne. However, with the support of Felix, the son of a duke, her "royal qualities" begin to blossom...!?

Why to license
A very enjoyable kingdom building fantasy with a capable and charismatic heroine at its center. One of the story's biggest strengths is watching Lucia steadily rebuild her position and strengthen the kingdom through practical reforms, diplomacy, and leadership rather than relying on force alone. The political maneuvering and nation building elements are engaging without becoming overly complex, making her achievements feel both believable and rewarding. Combined with a charming romance and a cast of supportive allies, it makes for a satisfying read that balances kingdom management, court intrigue, and personal growth.
