Episode 1

Umbra was the country inhabited only by humans, unlike others where supernatural beings, vampires, fairies, elves, mermaids, lycans and others settle. Each being had its own empire, for centuries, they were at peace with other empires, they did not bother other empires and these did nothing against them.

Everything was fine, in total peace, until a war broke out, one declared by the inhabitants of a nearby empire, this was the Lycan Empire. The war began, the emperor of the lycans wanted to take the empire of humans due to their great riches.

And so, they started a war against the human empire, but nobody expected something incredible, among the imperial family, there was an exceptional warrior, thanks to her, the human troops managed to advance, they were unstoppable and the battles she led were successful, this caused jealousy, envy and hatred from her brothers, because the emperor favored her due to her achievements, since she was winning the battle against the lycans, the emperor of these, knew that it was a matter of time before his empire was taken by those humans. But, something happened, just in the final battle, who appeared leading the army was the older sister of her main enemy.

Nobody knew why, but this only favored the lycans, because in a matter of months, they managed to drive the humans out of their territory and soon they would have the entire empire, but the court of the human empire pressured their current emperor to ask for a pact, one where they would give him the territory of the mines, but in exchange the war would end and they would sign a peace treaty. The older princess did not want to, she assured that she would win, but the court did not let itself be manipulated, they knew that they would be lost without the younger princess, this angered the older princess even more, but nothing could be done, the current emperor was convinced and the mines were handed over with all the territory near them. The emperor of the lycans accepted the deal, since that territory was rich in minerals and jewels.

After this peace treaty, the lycan emperor learned the truth and what had happened with his main rival, the younger princess, while the older princess who led the battle felt humiliated, everyone talked about how pathetic she was when leading the battle and that because of her fault, the lycans now had their most important and rich territory. But why did this happen? Why did the older sister lead the battle and not the younger princess? What happened to the younger princess? Everything has an answer and it is just before the decisive battle.

The older princess, jealous of the fame of her younger sister, created a cruel plan to get her out of her way.

The son of an influential duke, approached the younger princess, fell in love with her, asked her to be his wife, promising to reach victory together. She believed in him, accepted an engagement, which was well accepted by her father, since the duke was influential and his army would be of great help to his troops.

He even proposed to crown the younger princess as the empress, since of all his brothers, she was the most suitable. She was happy, not only would she marry the man she loved, but she would also be the empress. And so, the ceremony was done, she and the young duke married, the emperor crowned her empress and her husband, the new emperor. Everything seemed perfect, until one night, her father, the ex-emperor suffered an assassination attempt and immediately the older princess presented evidence blaming the young empress as the author of said act, the ex-emperor also believed in the first princess as well as those of the court, because she had presented days before evidence where the young empress plans to ally with the lycans and hand over the empire.

The emperor corroborated that, he was annoyed by such evidence, he even planned to take the crown from his youngest daughter and believed that this was the reason why the young empress wanted to assassinate him, so that no one would present the evidence of her betrayal.

And so, the one who was once the heroine of the empire, was locked in a dirty cell without food or water, until she received the visit of her sister and her husband. It is there where the young princess knew it, her husband and her older sister had conspired against her, her sister mocked her for how stupid she was and the new emperor only presumed how now the woman he truly loves, would be the empress and they would be happy together, after the older princess wins the battle against the lycans.

Of course, both were totally wrong and because of the ambitious older princess, they had lost an extremely important territory for the economy of the country. Without knowing it, they themselves condemned themselves for their ambition and envy.

While the young princess, perished alone in the dirty cell, abandoned by the people she protected, she died hating all those who betrayed and abandoned her. Asking that if possible, she would give her soul so that the traitors get a miserable end.

And so, precious red eyes opened suddenly, the blurred vision gradually became clear and she could see an elegant ceiling with the chandelier hanging in the middle of it, she sat up and when she brought her hand to her head, her fine black hair slid down, the young woman was surprised at this, especially when she saw that she was in a bed, covered by a sheet of fine fabric.

She raises her eyes, observing around her, she does not recognize that place, as far as she remembers, she died in an old warehouse where she bled to death due to an ugly wound. She stands up until she reaches a mirror, noticing that that, was not her, it was the face of another person. It was a beautiful young woman with black hair, long and beautiful, with a pair of intense red eyes, her skin was pale and a figure that anyone would envy.

《What is happening?》she asks herself in her thoughts.

Suddenly, she feels dizzy and a series of memories are reproduced in her memory, from the moment she was born, until the moment she died in a dirty cell. It was the past, present and future memories of the owner of the body. She feels the immense desire for revenge of the soul, among her memories she sees that young woman before her, both were identical.

"my soul for revenge...make them suffer...finish them..." asked that tormented soul.

She nods and so, that soul disappears and she wakes up, she had fainted on the floor, she even feels a slight pain in her head from the blow. The door opens and it was an older woman who entered, she carries a tray.

"Your Highness, what are you doing? Are you alright?" asks the worried woman.

"I'm fine..." She stands up."Do you have water?"

The woman nods and pours her a glass, while the girl sits on the edge of the bed, she was still a little confused about what was happening. The woman serves the food she had brought and carefully hands her a glass with a red liquid, when she smells the aroma, she is startled.

"Drink quickly, Your Highness..."

The girl holds the glass out of mere instinct and puts the liquid it contained in her mouth. When it touched her tongue, she knew immediately what it was, even her eyes gave a slight glow as all that liquid passed, it was so sweet and she felt her body shudder. When she finishes she returns the glass and the woman keeps it.

"I'll leave you to rest and here I'll leave you some food in case you want to eat." mentions the woman.

"I thank you, Moira..." she replies quickly.

The woman's name resonated in her head. But, what has happened a few seconds ago disconcerted her a little. What she had drunk was blood, but it is supposed to be a human empire, what was happening? Well, by the woman's actions she assumes that no one else knows. She needs to delve deeper into her memory to know more about the body she now possesses.
