TW: Abuse & Trauma. This is a slow-burn isekai story focused on healing, relationships, and rebuilding after loss. Some bonds, dear reader, are stronger than time. ——— In a timeline somewhat similar to our own, Reina WindDawn, heiress to the throne of the 6th-century WindDawn Empire, suffers under the cruelty of her parents. On Monday, November 29th, 532, at the age of 16, she died, her beloved Caine Winslow unable to save her. Executed by her father’s hand, with flames consuming the city beyond the Hippodrome, she is flung almost 1,500 years into the future of an alternate timeline—where she doesn’t exist! At long last, after nearly 10 years of searching, The Fates grant her an unexpected path home. At 8 years old once again, can Imperial Crown Princess Reina WindDawn survive and rewrite the regrets and tragedies of her childhood and teenage years?
