Lianna, a commoner girl, was matched by the Empire to the twin Silver Wolf lords, Karl and Silas. Karl was arrogant and cruel, viewing her as nothing more than a lowly tool, while the gentle Silas silently protected her. Lianna had once tolerated Karl because he had saved her life in the Black Forest, but after suffering repeated humiliations, her spirit was utterly crushed, and her affections turned solely to Silas.
Upon losing her, Karl was consumed by sudden remorse, but his frantic attempts to win her back were in vain. Lianna submitted a petition to dissolve the contract, and the court severed their ties. She then entered into a lifelong partner contract with Silas, who had always treated her with genuine affection. Karl was exiled to the desolate, icy wilderness, his story ending in regret. Lianna, meanwhile, ascended as the Silver Wolf Queen, receiving devoted and exclusive love.
