It is a historical fantasy based around an emotionally scarred woman who is transported magically to the Scottish Middle Ages.

She meets Hyun-Min Kang, the son of the president of a large company in Korea, and the two seem to feel love at first sight.

When Lena comes to, she finds herself in an unfamiliar kingdom, with only the sword that ended her mother's life and thoughts of revenge.

Lena Ha (aka Ley) is an intelligent, strong, and beautiful Korean girl who was the captain of the kumdo team.

Upon her arrival in the Scottish Middle Ages, she hides her sex and calls herself "Ley" and is known as a fearsome warrior.

After the final battle at Sevia, Ariana sends Lena back to Korea where she says her goodbyes to Hyun-Min and then returns to Scotland to stay.

Sean is a bored prince who, after a fight with his father, leaves his castle and heads toward the city in search of adventure.

Cid is another of Ley's early companions, who has sworn an oath to avenge the death of his father by the Jager Tribe.

She despises the Earl as he killed & burned down her entire village in exchange for her sister, Brenna, "the woman he wanted the most", who he keeps captive in his castle.

Lucien Wyclef is the rightful king of Tamir who lost his kingdom to the Earl Auye plunging his subjects into tyranny and poverty.

He and Ley meet each other in a dream, and he proclaims her his true love and kisses her before a shadow, later discovered to be Queen Eleanor, takes him away.

He later discovers that Ley true gender during the gladiator battle that took place the day before he was to be wed to Queen Eleanor.

Several years later, the king took her to a party in Aran, and Ariana stole baby Lena from Jira and then returned to Kabul.

Shortly afterward, she and the baby were pushed into the river by Eleanor, and Ariana used the last of her power before she died to send Lena to present-day Korea.

For a long time he was neutral in the conflict, presumably "keeping an eye on" Eleanor to make sure her Leon powers didn't awaken.

Her power to only speak the truth was used by Eleanor to hunt people down, including Ariana and Lena, thus burdening her with constant guilt over the murders.

He was cruel and merciless, ordering his troops to kill and destroy entire villages (women and children included).

He is killed by Ley during the battle at Rohim due to an underestimation of the town's people's fighting skills.

He is cruel and violent, showing obvious jealousy toward Mark when the Earl puts him in charge of leading the armies.

He frequently starts fights with the other team members, and constantly challenges Lena's leadership due to the fact that she's a girl.

He was fatally wounded by members of the Jager Tribe, and instructed Cid to find and protect the Child in his place.

Adam Wilson is a very mysterious servant to the Earl who was responsible for planning the attack on Leven, Campbell, and Dumlon.

When Lucien and Eleanor's wedding was nearing, he helped Cid, Sean, and Nox infiltrate Sevia castle to stop the gladiator match.

On the way, in the city of Scoan she meets the prince of Laud, a bumbling, childish teen named Sean Renock III who has run away from the castle and is looking for adventure.

When Ley reluctantly saves Sean from a group of kidnappers, he begins to follow her and together they join a caravan of merchants who are heading for Glasgow.

Inside, Cid manages to get the gate open, allowing Max and Lucien to charge into the castle and join in the fight.

Ley, not knowing that Lucien was at Glasgow, tells the others she wishes to meet the king of Tamir and they head for Ashton.

Cid and Sean return with the town's men, but arrive too late and discover only dead bodies and burning buildings.

A man named Sir Wolf who knew Cid's father approaches them in their cell and offers to help them escape, which they agree to.

Michael is reunited with the others, and they make plans to infiltrate Sevia Castle to rescue Ley and attack Eleanor.
