After eight years of a marriage sustained only by mutual hatred, the capital falls to invaders. The husband rides out to block the enemy advance, sacrificing himself so his wife can flee. As he dies under a hail of arrows, he whispers a plea for a different fate in a future life. The wife survives the sack of the city only to climb the palace tower and leap to her death. She awakens in the past, before the war begins. Determined to erase the regret that defined his final moments, she petitions the king to send her north as the royal bride originally intended for the woman her husband loved. She intends to cross the border in her rival's place, carrying the crown of exile so the other woman can remain safe and her husband can live believing his promise was kept.
