There is a male lead, but the romance isn't prominent. The female lead is driven by a deep concern for all living beings and takes it upon herself to protect them. It's somewhat of an ensemble piece, with most characters having their own storylines. It's a bit of a shame there aren't any side stories focusing on these characters, but overall it's a fantastic read. Highly recommended!
