Volume 5 A Triad of

Ajilea and Jubilee have a good relation, despite hailing from different mothers. However, it could not be denied that only one of the girls, Ajilea, was destined to rule, as she was of royal blood. The sisters support one another and their endeavors, but what is not looked on favorably is Ajilea's negligence and laxness about her royal preparation.Ajilea is mystified by the magi territory that was acquired by her grandfather Yuenshing, spending her free time conversing with the royal magi in the palace. When she finds herself unsatisfied with their knowledge, she resorts to taking small, unattended trips to Terra Vernister, navigating the territory using the novice spells she learned from a stolen magi book.One day, Ajilea comes close to an area that the Death God himself, Rhynis, had been exploring to understand if it did inhibit some connection to his Death Realm, and was what the magi coined as "The Ether".She enters the scene at a time when there's unrest among the magi, as they harbor ill feelings towards the Uratha Empire and its impending forces moving in more than like, violating the "independently-operated" agreement they signed with Yuenshing.
