Honour, revenge, and the quest for justice.
Belgrade, Kingdom of Hungary, 1470:
Raised in exile, adolescent noblewoman Margit Szilágyi dreams of returning to her homeland of Transylvania to avenge her father's murder and reclaim her stolen legacy. To achieve this, she must break the constraints of her gender and social status and secretly train in combat.
When the king offers
her a chance at justice, she seizes it—even if it means disguising herself as a
man to infiltrate the vultures' nest that now occupies her ancestral ‘eyrie’.
Plagued by childhood
trauma and torn between two passionate loves, Margit faces brutal battles, her
murderous kin's traps and inner demons on her quest for vengeance. Only by
confronting the past can she reclaim her honour—if she can survive long enough
to see it through.
Return to the Eyrie
is an epic coming-of-age tale of a young woman's unwavering pursuit of justice
and destiny in 15th century Hungary.
Triggers: battle violence (moderate), love scenes (moderate), character suffering from childhood trauma (molestation).
