In the Belgarian Empire, there lives a girl named Marie Quatre Argentina de Belgaria—“Altina” for short—who happens to be the fourth in line to the imperial throne. She is a princess who, at a mere fourteen years of age, resolved to fix the corruption plaguing her nation.
“I’m going to become empress,” she tells Regis Aurick. “I need your wisdom.”
Now, Regis is inept with a sword, unable to ride a horse, and apathetic toward the empire he serves. He is a hopeless soldier by all definitions who spends his days buried in books, yet she still enlists him to be her tactician.
Through a duel with the hero Jerome, a battle against barbarians, and the capture of the impregnable Fort Volks, Altina steadily raises a formidable military force.
At the beginning of April in the year 851, the fourth princess makes her return to the imperial palace of La Branne. Here, Regis uses his ingenuity to fend off a scheme by Second Prince Latrielle and corner First Prince Auguste—actually Auguste’s younger sister Felicia in disguise—into relinquishing his rights to the throne.
Later that same month, on April 23rd, High Britannia declares war on Belgaria. A western port falls to a vicious bombardment, and upon making landfall, High Britannia’s First Division devastates the Empire’s Second Army.
On May 19th, the two nations meet in the Battle of La Frenge. The Empire’s Seventh Army forms a close-knit formation and charges their foe, but when pitted against High Britannia’s newest firearms, the Belgarian Army’s attack leads only to catastrophic losses.
