Princess Regnant Alice and her companions, after a trip to Prince Daniel's world Xeros, and a visit to Lost Terra and a meeting with Michael, the mysterious, ancient human, have been directed by Michael to travel to Mahoukai -- a world of magical beings who will be able to properly train and guide Prince Daniel's sister Alouette in the use of her inborn magical powers. But a nagging question continues to bug both Alice and her father, Roger; what is really going on, back on Capital? Is a revolution brewing? Is the Lord Chancellor, Rupert, somehow involved, and at what level? Eventually they must bid a reluctant farewell to the Mahoukaian Great Mages of Antiquity, and end Alice's six month absence from her Throne. And what they find on Capital is far, far beyond anything they might have imagined from 50,000 light years away. The second volume of the BBESP light novel!
