The Bellus Myth states that any person born with silver hair was destined to sit upon the Throne of Bellus. But the Bellus Throne had been sat aside by it's last ruler, Princess Kaya Denoyelles, wife of Duke Michael Denoyelles, once Bellus entered the Federation of Worlds. Lujayn LaSalle was a descendant of Princess Kaya, and like her father, Lord Mikhail LaSalle, and her twin brother, she had the signature silver hair. Unlike them, she was single, and also a ship's Captain in the Federation Fleet. But Bellus was not the only world to believe in the myth of the silver hair. And a world even more ancient than Earth needed a ruler with such locks of hair. Lujayn was about to take a journey that her Fleet training barely prepared her for.
