The Deposed Empress Maria summary: *"Wait, from this moment forward, I shall deliver divine retribution." Maria had once reveled in the grandeur of her life as the empress, adored by the empire, cherished as the emperor's wife. She had known power, respect, and the comfort of loyalty—until the day it all shattered. The emperor, her once-devoted husband, and her closest confidante turned traitor, feeding her lies and weaving webs of deceit. She had given them everything, but in return, they tore her apart. Her loved ones, those she held dear, were slaughtered before her eyes. She was nothing more than a pawn, used and discarded with cruel indifference. Now, stripped of her crown and title, Maria was cast aside, exiled to a foreign land—a shadow of the woman she once was. But this is where her torment would end, for she had tasted the bitterness of betrayal. From the ashes of her broken soul, a fury was born. The world would soon learn: No one betrays Maria and lives. Her vengeance would be as swift and relentless as it was divine.
