    RETELLING THE STORY OF QUEEN ESTHER FROM THE BIBLE, WITH A FANTASY TWIST.
           The Six Kingdoms of Kürii 
        
             Abraxos is the prince of Chaçia, one of the six kingdoms in Kûrii. After sending away his disobedient queen, he sends out a royal decree that all the young, unmarried maidens of the provinces are to be brought to him at the palace.
        
            Esme is an honest country girl. When she is brought to the palace, she never expected the king would take a liking to her. Orphaned and taken from her beloved cousin, Esme sets her faith on the Eternal for guidance.
        
            When least expect it, a spy from a rogue kingdom weasels his way to position himself as the wisest of the king's advisors. Danger beckons, forcing King Abraxos to make a law that would annihilate the very people he has sworn to protect. Esme is the only one who can put an end to it.
