The Forgotten Queen Vol 1 2

I can...do things. Raise blood. Make men and women fight and die for no reason at all. Sometimes I mean to and sometimes I don't. Everyone calls me "witch". What is it that witches do?

-- War-Monger

Solicitation[]

All’s fair in love and war!

True to the name she’s been called throughout history, the War-Monger knows how to get a good fight going among even the best of friends. The outcome of the battle never mattered to her – at least, not until she fell head over heels for the Mongol Empire’s most fearsome warrior. She can poison hearts against one another…but can she win one for herself?

Quotes[]

Immortals are like no one else. You can time their breakups by world wars. Empires rise and fall with their lusts. Almost nothing gets through to them. So when something does...maps get rewritten. Entire people are wiped out. Bloodlines just stop.

-- Sarnai Oyuunchimeg
