Premiered July 4, 2026. Subsequent episodes available every Saturday at Crunchyroll.
Synopsis
A young girl and a royal consort.
Bound by a vow of vengeance, these two women are about to unleash a storm upon the mightiest empire on Earth.
After losing her mother and being torn from her homeland, a young girl named Sitara is taken in by Fatima, the kind wife of a family of scholars.
"If you study and become wise, you will know exactly what to do no matter what hardships come your way."
Stirred by these words from Fatima’s son, Muhammad, Sitara discovers the vital importance and limitless potential of "knowledge," devoting herself to her education in hopes of one day standing as an equal to him.
However, the tide of history is unforgiving. The Mongol Empire, led by Genghis Khan, is expanding its reach daily, and the waves of conquest eventually swallow Sitara’s city.
Stripped of everything by Tolui, the Empire’s fourth prince, and taken prisoner, Sitara makes a deadly vow: she will use her only remaining weapon—her intellect—to worm her way into the royal family and collapse the empire from within.
Taking on the name "Fatima," inherited from her late mentor, she enters the service of the empire while hiding the flames of revenge in her heart. One day, she has a fateful encounter with Doregene, the sixth consort of the third prince, Ogodei. Doregene also carries a harrowing past and hides a deep-seated hatred for the empire.
When Sitara and Doregene—two women who were never meant to meet—join hands, the wheels of destiny begin to turn.
