"It seems such a peaceful world," she mused, tilting her head back to let a beam of sunlight warm her face. "It's difficult to believe, when you smell the earth and the trees and the wildflowers on the wind... It's difficult to believe there's a war going on, and so many people are fighting, simply to survive."Hyacinth Blillick is comfortable with the mundane life her average Examination score got her. That is, she's comfortable with it until the day Fleck Raven shows up. Fleck's presence isn't only inconvenient, stirring up dark secrets from Hyacinth's past, but also inspires questions about life in the province that she has always wondered but never dared to ask. As the questions and their answers spiral out of control, Hyacinth finds herself thrown into a plot to overthrow the current regime and save countless lives... So long as she can save her own life first.
