Freedom isn't given. It's taken through fire and mana. Arabella believes her days of servitude are over when her magical potential is noticed by her master's winged companion. The ability to communicate with magical beasts is the hallmark of a Citizen, and Arabella is immediately whisked away to the capital to undergo the 'Metamorphosis'.
The process will remake her body in order to unlock her dormant mana channels.
As the first emancipate in centuries, Arabella is granted her own Estate by the Empress, an artificial intelligence assistant, and a seat among the world's most powerful wizards.
It's the life she always wanted.
But she soon realizes her new position as a Citizen is nothing more than a gilded cage, for Empress Vashti demands she uphold the very system that once enslaved her.
She isn't interested in being another pillar of the Empire-she's going to use her legendary growth to tear the system down and set the world free.
Experience the start of a zero-to-hero progression fantasy where one girl's defiance will change the fate of an entire world, using tactile magic and heightened senses to analyze mana and manipulate the laws of nature.
