Nina’s childhood has not been easy. She lost her parents after a plague infested her town, and ended up living on the street with two other children.
They survive by stealing what they can from the rich, and lately they do it more often to help a sick friend.
At first glance, the girl looks like a boy, but she disguises to hide the blue color of her eyes. Which are attributed with powers by a closed and superstitious society.
During an argument, the subject of slavery comes up, and because of her eyes, Nina could be worth a lot of money. And when the sick boy dies, the other one does not hesitate to betray her.
By a strange coincidence, Azure Seth Fortuna, one of the princes of the kingdom, is the one who buys her.
In a couple of days, they explain to her the very special situation she is in, and that the lives of many people depend on her.
It turns out that the princess, whom Azure raised and cared for, was destined to be the kingdom’s oracle when she turned 15, but upon returning from a trip, her carriage fell off a cliff and she died.
In a few more days, Nina must learn to behave like a princess, and when she asks if no one will notice, she is told that since she was born, the blue-eyed princess was destined to live locked away in a temple, and no one knows her appearance.
With nowhere else to go, Nina decides to become the priestess Alisha, and quickly discovers that the life of the nobles is not easy either.
