Power and love are always difficult to have at the same time, but truth and death go hand in hand. In the summer of 1548, two girls with their own secrets met for the first time in the Tudor court: one was a princess who had an affair with her stepfather, and the other was a Jewish descendant who was avoiding religious trials. I thought it was just a one-time relationship, but who knew the two were destined to meet again. Hannah, who was born with the ability of psychic vision, became the jester in the palace and witnessed the story behind the change of the throne: the murderous "Bloody Mary" was once a compassionate king, but Elizabeth, a wise king, had a cold heart... How do the desire for power and fighting distort people's hearts and bury the truth? The translation has been significantly revised in all aspects to improve accuracy and fluency.

Power and love are always difficult to have at the same time, but truth and death go hand in hand - in the summer of 1431, Joan of Arc stood on the stake. Tongues of fire climbed up the girl's back, but there was no miracle to save her. The "Wheel of Fortune" gives people the power to command the king, and it can also push people into the abyss of painful death at the next moment. Yageta, who was on the side of the execution ground, witnessed all this and predicted all this. Having inherited the blood of the river goddess, can she break free from the chains of fate and survive the cruel palace battles?
