Online since · 7 episodes
Witch-raised outcast enters lethal blossom trial to claim her crown-prince love.
Beauty-obsessed parents discard infant Lina Navera in the Forbidden Forest because her skin resembles bark and her hair grows as thorns. A witch rescues her, raising the girl among ancient trees where Lark becomes her sole anchor and first love.
An enchanted stream rewrites Lina's appearance, stripping away bark and thorns while exposing Lark's hidden identity: he is Riviera's crown prince, already pledged to Verei. Refusing to vanish lands Lina in a cell and forces her into the Rite of Blossoms.
As Verei schemes and the forest withers, Lina uncovers a dark family secret tied to her abandonment. Winning the contest means claiming the prince and the throne; losing means execution and the realm's decay.
