By Her Grace – a progressive Isekai Light Novel
Author: North Drake
By Her Grace is a dark, psychological, and intricately layered progressive isekai light novel. Grace Blair, a young woman disillusioned with the mundane world, has decided to break free from her past. However, her transition into a new world is not a story of heroism or noble deeds, but a self-driven journey toward ultimate freedom and control. Grace—brilliant, twisted, unforgettable—left Earth in a blaze of fire and livestream infamy. Now, reborn as the daughter of a noble house in a world of magic and power, she wears a porcelain smile and plays the role of perfect child. But beneath the curls and courtesies lies a mind still sharp, still broken, and hungrier than ever. Armed with memories, magic, and a mission of her own design, Grace doesn’t seek peace or redemption. She seeks control. Transformation. Entertainment. And if the world burns again? So be it. Innocent girl. Twisted mind. Going farther. Thematically, it’s: A character study of brilliance turned feral—Grace is not a misunderstood genius. She’s dangerous, calculated, and disturbingly self-aware. A villain origin story wrapped in a fairytale setting—where the monster is the little girl you never saw coming. An exploration of identity, control, and transformation—from Grace Blair to Grace of Ashford, and beyond. __________________________________________________ It’s my first story, and I’m not a native speaker, so please overlook any mistakes and maybe strange phrasing.
