Many questions have surrounded the rise of the new Midnight, a girl only known as Alice Black. Though many now know who she is, very few know who she was, or even where she came from.
I am a person who is in all of these categories. I guarded the person known as Alice Black for a year and a day in her youth at the orders of the former Queen of Midnight, came with her to live at the Night Palace in Amaron, and stood by as the Queen of Midnight instructed her in the ways of the old order. I was at her side when the former Midnight died, and when the girl now known as Alice Black ascended the Opal Throne.
My name is Makatrice, and I was there.
