A Crown of Secrets and Sorcery

A Crown of Secrets and Sorcery

Stars align for love… but kingdoms fall for war.

A princess who refuses the crown.
A sorceress who reads the stars.
A war that will consume them both.

The Kingdom of Valenne

The Kingdom of Valenne stands between two empires at war, wealthy from trade and protected by neutrality.

Its princess, Lysandra, is known not for diplomacy, but for her temper, her defiance, and her refusal to play the role expected of her.

No one believes she will matter.

Until a single night changes everything.

An attempted kidnapping shatters the illusion of safety, revealing a deeper game of spies, shifting alliances, and hidden power.

Above the harbor, the castle sorceress Selene reads the stars and sees what others refuse to face:

War is coming.

And Valenne is at the center of it.

The Players in the Game

Lysandra
The Princess
Fiery, underestimated, politically trapped. Seen as spoiled, but far more dangerous than assumed.
Selene
The Sorceress
Star reader, composed, deeply perceptive. Sees futures others cannot bear to face.
Callum
The Squire
Loyal, observant, quietly brave. Transgender identity handled naturally within world.
Alaric
Prince of Arkenor
Strategic, diplomatic, more calculating than he appears.
Rook
The Rogue
Dangerous, unpredictable, sharp-tongued. Appears when least expected and leaves chaos in her wake.
Liora
The Handmaiden
Quiet strength, emotional anchor. More than she appears.

A Forbidden Connection

At the center of war, something quieter unfolds.

A connection that should not exist.

A bond that could fracture a kingdom.

Lysandra and Selene.

Princess and sorceress.
Power and restraint.
Fire and starlight.

In a world ruled by expectation, their love is not just forbidden.

It is dangerous.

The Constellations

Healing
Illusions
Fire
Protection
Weather
Sight Beyond

Magic in Mytharae is drawn from constellations.

It is not limitless.
It is not free.
And it does not forgive misuse.

Selene does not command magic.

She interprets it.
