From Misery to Majesty

*"Wh-what are you going to do with me?"
"You'll be our sacrifice to the river god."*

Born as an untouchable, Lisha's life has never been easy. Her misery peaks when she is about to be thrown into the river, but suddenly a man appears with a flash of white light in the downpour. Just like that, Prince Helios enters Lisha's life like a ray of light in the darkest moment of her existence. Oblivious, Lisha follows him to the palace. Surrounded by kind people, she's introduced to a whole new world, and her cold, bitter days seem to take a dramatic turn. Then, unbeknownst to her, Lisha's true identity is revealed as Aleph, the noblest being in the Empire and a demigod protecting the Empire of Agaia. Despite some explanations provided to her, there is one thing that still troubles Lisha: why is the prince so sweet to her?
