By Your Side, My Lord

After an unexpected encounter following her death, she takes the place of a general’s daughter and is reborn in an age filled with the sound of bugles and encamped armies.

Four kingdoms are locked in turmoil. Her country falls and her family is destroyed, but she refuses to become a bird in a cage. She endures hardship after hardship, all for a life of her own.

In the end, is victory won by the strategist Lanling on the battlefield, or by a fleeting smile in a spring chamber, gently furrowing her brow in a dream?

After schemes upon schemes, who will gamble their soul against the world itself, and finally find a way through the twists and turns of nineteen paths to rise from the ashes?
