After receiving an unexpected package from an unexpected sender, seventeen-year-old Amelia Kingston is thrown into the prestigious Olympian High. For someone whose life revolved around constant transferring to schools due to her foster father's odd paranoia, she already knows the rule of thumb: fit in, act natural and most importantly, don't attract unnecessary attention. Unsurprisingly, she breaks all three and ends up staggering to the school's electrical room, only to be shot down by a distracted student with pure lightning, knocking her unconscious. As soon as she wakes up, she is thrown into a world of godly incarnates, backstabbing enemies and lost myths coming back to life.

Since time immemorial, nobody had ever surpassed death. They invented sorcery to bridge the chasm between them and divinity, yet none came close to escaping the clutches of the Great Reaper. It was all until Eva Alaine, a broken and curious soul, woke up in a coffin of petals with a crown atop her head. No longer a mere peasant, Eva sought to solve the mystery of her rebirth. It is now up to her and her newfound family to win the cruel game of society. Control her, kill her, or worship her; everyone had their own agenda. Religions will bend their belief, and the parliament will ignore the law, all for the sake of solving the riddle of the princess who defied death. The faith and harmony of the world hang in jeopardy as everybody made their play. In a massive chess game of power and influence, those who have wits will reign as the victor. Each stroke of her pen etched the anthologies of her adventures. Each page of her diary held joy, sorrow, and growth. Each act in her story was an effort to redemption. {AWARDS WON} Black Cat Awards || 1st Place Fantasy Coalition Awards || 1st Place Fantasy Luna Awards || 1st Place Fantasy Coalition Awards || 1st Place Fantasy Banana Awards || 2nd Place Fantasy Debonair Accord || 3rd Place Fantasy
