Knight's Fate: Interchange Inversion

"For whose sake is your blade drawn?"

Priscilla Avellion is the youngest Royal Knight in Arcadia—a title that is as much a curse as it is a triumph. To the world, she is the "nouveau riche" prodigy. To the Queen, she is a silent blade sent to the lawless borders of the realm.

But the border city of Arrivaul holds no glory. Amidst the filth of the slums, Priscilla finds a secret that the knight’s code cannot fix: a child marked by scars and a city rotting from within.

Drawing her blade against fate itself, Priscilla must decide how much blood she is willing to spill to keep a promise. But in Arrivaul, life is never granted—it is stolen. And the cost of her pride may be her very soul.

P.S. You don't need to read the other story to enjoy this one.
