I am Elara Merandus. Next Queen of Norta. Next Legacy. The only problem is, I have one barrier to becoming all of those things. Coriane Jacos. She is living my life. I have to corrupt her. Twist her mind against her. Make her mind a cage she can never escape. I am a warrior in my own right. My only aid, my mind. I am a warrior disguised with jewels and satin to be desirable. Underneath my layers of silk and shimmer. I am a surgeon, a butcher of people. I can force you to kill your family, and force you to watch. I can make all your problems swallow you whole. I can be your worst nightmare.

Invading minds are as easy as unlocking a door. People's thoughts are like a collage of their life, a colorful array of emotions. Joy, fear, depression, lust, anxiety you name it, I've seen it. People can never hide the truth from a whisper. They can deny it, but it can never be avoided. One truth I know is that Coriane Jacos has a secret. She is not the perfect person the whole kingdom adores. Porcelain can crack, no matter how beautiful. And I am the hammer to destroy it.
