The countries of Espington and Mien are again at war.
A decisive battle leaves the youngest prince of the Mienese Kingdom in the hands of Espington's War Minister who has plans for his captive. His plan? To marry the prince off to an Espington princess, giving the War Minister a connection to the royal family's table at the reclusive Mienese court.
The prince is shocked. The princess is shocked. The Espington people are outraged.
A revolutionary group refuses to allow the noble bloodline to be tainted. They'll stop at NOTHING to KILL THE PRINCE.
...well, they'll pay someone to KILL THE PRINCE for them.
Congratulations, you've been hired!
