Work Overview

Story

A girl and a consort.

Two women bound by vengeance will unleash a storm upon the mightiest empire on Earth.

After losing her mother and being torn from her homeland, young Shitala is taken in by Fatima, the kind-hearted wife of a scholarly family.

"If you study and become wise, no matter what troubles arise, you'll know what's best to do," said Muhammad, Fatima's son.

Moved by these words, Shitala comes to understand the power and importance of knowledge, deepening her intellect.

Dreaming one day of catching up to Muhammad...

Meanwhile, the 'Mongol Empire,' the mightiest empire on Earth under Emperor Genghis Khan, expands its power day by day.

The tide of history soon engulfs the town where Shitala lives.

Captured and stripped of everything by Tolui, the fourth prince of the empire, Shitala resolves to infiltrate the royal family using the one thing left to her—her 'wisdom'—and destroy the empire from within.

Taking the name 'Fatima,' passed down from her benefactor.

While secretly harboring a flame of revenge, Shitala outwardly serves the empire. One day, she has a fateful encounter with Dokuzen, the sixth wife of the third prince Ogedei. Dokuzen, too, carries a tragic past and deep hatred toward the empire.

Shitala and Dokuzen.

When two women who should never have met join hands, their destinies begin to shift dramatically.
