​

Navier does an interview with a local journalist, and she includes a tidbit about overhearing part of Soveishu’s plan to divorce her. Upon reading the ensuing article, Soveishu realizes his mistake and sends a letter to Navier explaining his entire plan, but Navier is unimpressed and declines to come back or participate any further in his schemes. Soveishu decides to have his wedding to Rashta before Navier's in the Western Kingdom to force Heinrey and Navier to attend, but all Navier sees are Rashta’s missteps in maintaining the empire despite all of the advice she had left and instructions on how to continue to keep things running smoothly.

Cover of The Abandoned Empress volume 6. A princess is in a white and blue dress with her belly exposed like a belly dancer. She has short blond hair and bangles in her hair and around her wrist.
Tia continues to pursue her knightly work and finds herself very busy preparing for the Foundation Festival. Several princesses from other kingdoms arrive, all hoping to be selected as the Court Princess, and Tia hopes that one of them count replace her as Ruve’s betrothed. The different court factions, particularly the Nobleist faction, see this as an opportunity to support a princess who will be successful and depose Tia, whose family is of the Imperialist faction. The festival has several nights of fancy partying and dancing, but they aren’t without clandestine meetings, secret rendezvous, scheming, and political maneuvering.

Cover of The Remarried Empress volume 7. Heinrey is helping Navier out of a purple carriage. She's wearing a red and blue dress while Heinrey is wearing white pants, a red vest of the same fabric, and a long overcoat.

​

Navier gets settled in within her new roll as the queen of the Western kingdom. That means choosing new ladies-in-waiting, a difficult task, seeing as how the eligible ladies were all chosen by the previous queen and are loyal to her. Back in the Eastern Kingdom, Soveishu is still reeling from the surprise that Navier landed on him, but plans to throw a wedding to outshine Navier’s and make her attend to spite her. Navier and Heinrey navigate some beginning couple awkwardness, and Navier asks questions about who the birds are that used to visit her chambers frequently when she was in the Eastern Kingdom.

In one such trip through time, Unico finds himself in the care of the Neighborhood Watch Cat Chloe who hopes to find herself a witch, but secretly wishes she could be human to fully fend for herself. The two end up helping an older woman in a small village while trying to steer clear of Byron, a local hunter who has been picking off animals for his trophy room.​
