Raised without a mother, Lucy does everything she can to win the love and approval of her father, King Ormighand. Though her brother Leo was born only moments before her, he is naturally first in line to be chosen as King. But Lucy's father makes her a deal - if she proves her worth, she will become Queen. Through countless years of studying, battle training, monster hunting, and even surviving the cruel 'lessons' of a witch-hunter posing as an instructor, Lucy eagerly anticipates being chosen to succeed the throne. Despite all her efforts, Leo is crowned. In a last attempt to change her father's mind, Lucy sets out to do something that's never been possible - forge a lasting truce with the southern magical Kingdom of Tramalia. On her journey, she learns more about the secret of Cryo energy, and encounters a god and a powerful sorceress from the world of Dorma, who claim she is part of a prophecy to become one of the most powerful beings in the Universe.
