A young girl is thrust into leadership as her competence, talent, charisma, and nature prove to be the foundation her people need. Even if her own country disagrees... As far back as I could remember, there was another girl in my dreams. When I slept, I saw someone else's life. A different life. When I woke, that girl's skills were there in my menus. By the time I was nine, I could read a language no one else knew. By twelve, I knew numbers no one had taught me. She grew with me, and I watched her life in the hours between waking. When I was sixteen, I watched her die. "For the love of my people, I'd die a pauper... yet for the love of my people, I am a queen. Unlike you." -- Quote Attributed to Elmerina, The Bond Crafter What to expect:- Female MC- Charismatic (But kinda dorky) MC- Crafting- Kingdom Building- All that good Isekai classic stuff- Weak to Strong...kind of- Political Maneuvering- War- Talents and Skill Progression - Peasant to Ruler Will update quickly for the first ten chapters.
