The Sword of Paros

A beautifully illustrated fantasy adventure from shojo legend Yumiko Igarashi and Guin Saga creator Kaoru Kurimoto, available for the first time in English. For fans of The Rose of Versailles and Revolutionary Girl Utena! The legends that speak of the Sword of Paros say that it can bestow either prosperity or ruin on its kingdom...depending on the heart of its wielder. The kingdom's current princess, the beautiful yet resentful Elminia, laments being treated as a soulless tool simply for being born in a woman's body. Accompanied by Count Yulias, Elminia rides as far away from the kingdom’s politics as possible. One day, Eliminia meets a beautiful young girl named Fiona, and their lives and the kingdom are changed forever.
