Men can love, but they can also hate. Noll knows too well that the men in her village have adjusted poorly to the freedom of their hearts, but she hopes to bring peace back to her community. With the lord's return, Noll feels confident that together, they can work to settle down the villagers, but in his rebirth, he remembers only one thing about her: that she caused the curse that tortured him for a millennium in the first place.
Determined to start anew, Noll must accept that, romantically, she and the lord are better without one another, but she'll need his help to uncover what's really behind all of the suffering in her village. Escorted to a land beyond the mountains, Noll uncovers the truth about her village and the strange occurrences in which she's had a hand. When someone who loves her discovers the same things and betrays her, Noll feels powerless to stop her village's fate. By learning to forgive and seek forgiveness, Noll finally understands true love of a free heart-along with true sacrifice.
