PRESTIGE

The city of Nova, capital of a great kingdom, is now lost in big turmoil. The king is dead and the power vacuum is spreading. Two important families are going to take the field, ready to do anything for supremacy. A silent war is about to begin. The two queens, ruling their families, will lead their followers in the attempt to conquer Nova in strong and subtle ways through palaces, markets, strongholds and temples. Who will set up their own king on the throne?
