Chronicles of the Sword
Attractive, brilliant... the brightest student at the Grandall Academy. No one doubted her skills as her aptitude became more and more apparent under the tutelage of her soldier father.

A voice spoke to her from nowere: "Who is this that threatens me?"
She took her sword and shield to defend her own justice. She headed to the battlefront of her own will, where greed and conflict embraced.
"The justice that protects this land was the justice that protects me..."
