In Girtonia"s realm, the Adenauer lineage has long produced holy figures. Their lineage traces back to the founding saints of Girtonia, whose miracles are still celebrated. They wield sacred relics that amplify their protective powers. The latest wave of sanctified women consists of two sisters who guard the land against beasts and disaster. Philia, the elder, is hailed as a genius capable of resolving any crisis instantly, while Mia, though less powerful, wins the nation with her gentle charm. Their bond remains unshakable.
Only Mia truly supports Philia; her stoic expression and distant manner draw scolding from parents and complaints from townsfolk, isolating Philia from the warmth she craves. Prince Julius Girtonia, Philia"s betrothed, prefers a warmer bride and breaks off the match. He then transfers Philia to the neighboring land of Parnacorta, which recently lost its own saint.
With no say in the matter, Philia departs to serve Parnacorta. Despite her doubts, she hopes to prove herself worthy of this new realm"s trust. Yet, the people she meets greet her with open arms, and for the first time in years, she feels a genuine smile.
