Elevator Pitch:

If they want a villain they will have a villain. Many years ago, Lady Astraea died in battle. She died a hero, sacrificing her life once again by slaying the Villain, a man waging war against all of the Great Houses. But when she wakes up suddenly and finds out that the narrative has been flipped; that now she, herself, is the villain? She decides that she’s had enough. It’s a vengeance motivated by anger, heartbreak, and the sudden freedom that comes from being alone in the world.

Worldbuilding:

The story takes place in a single kingdom and specifically surrounding the Great Houses. Based on the European Medieval world.

Society is made up of the Noble Houses, under the direct control of the King, as well as the common folk. And then the Great Houses, who train the Chevalier, the only people able to communicate with the Ancestors, this world’s equivalent of Gods who also give them the ability to use spells.

The Great Houses keep their politics isolated from the King and Noble Houses. If their affairs do not affect the general population, then the King has no say in their business (including war???).
