Cassandra was the youngest oracle at the Temple of Delphi, gifted with the most potent prophetic powers. On the day she was to marry her beloved, standing beside him in her white robes, she was met not with a queen’s crown but with a harsh decree: divine punishment for an oracle’s interference in mortal affairs. Only then did she realize that her lover’s heart belonged to another—and that the very man betrothed to her was the one who would take her life.
As her life ebbed away, she uttered a final prophecy: she would return to exact her revenge. This vow was etched deep within the innermost sanctuary of the Temple of Delphi, and her soul descended into the Underworld. Hades, Lord of the Dead, received her spirit and sent her back in time—seven years into the past.
In this new life, her very first prophecy averted an imminent war, earning her the reverence of all Greece. The prince who had once ordered her execution was consumed by endless remorse, condemned to live on in the agony of having lost her.
