All chapters are drafted. I'll start posting once it's finished.
The journey from orphan girl to legendary scholar.
As a wandering orphan at the bottom of the manor's social ladder, Vera studies botany not out of passion, but because a chronic illness is leaving her barely able to survive.
An orphan from the lower classes teaches herself herbalism and goes from doctor to great scholar?
No. She just wants to cozy up to the manor owner's golden thigh, since the owner loves plants.
She has never asked for much: just to live, live, live.
From a wandering orphan to a gentlewoman's adopted daughter, from an adopted daughter to a close attendant of the king. Through countless days and nights spent alongside plants, as her understanding of society gradually deepens, something quietly begins to sprout in Vera's heart.
In the eyes of others, it should not take root in a woman born to the lower classes, nor in Vera, whose first priority is survival.
An ideal.
And that ideal ultimately makes her a legend.
