The chariot of the sun

The story follows political and emotional upheaval around a young queen whose coronation is interrupted by a violent, seemingly supernatural storm that heralds a broader World-Storm; personal loyalties and romantic devotion drive many pivotal acts. It charts the collision of ceremonial tradition, bold challenges to sovereign right, and the mechanics of government as crisis unfolds, moving through councils, battlefield confrontations, and the queen's periods of triumph, madness, and retreat. Themes emphasize love as a motivating force, the vulnerability of institutions, and the human costs of national cataclysm, while episodic and allegorical scenes portray a society remade by disaster.
