Beneath the Rouge, A Sword

In the kingdom of Narethia, two baby girls are born at the same moment, and the bond between their fates is sealed before they can speak. A high monk makes a prophecy that one of them carries a destiny that will reshape the realm, and the court begins to watch them with suspicion and hope. As the two girls grow up under the shadow of that prediction, rivalry and loyalty pull them toward a showdown over who will rise and who will be left behind. Beneath the Rouge, A Sword follows their climb from obscurity toward a royal reckoning.
