Eugiene is forced to leave France after many troubles with the Revolution, yet at last minute, she is forced to save her older brothers friend instead of her brother. She learns the meaning of sacrifice, going from an aristocrat to barely being able to eat a meal.
You cannot trust anybody
Nobody can help you
Just you
you and your brother
alone in this world of evil
yet there is a light
a brightness
a glimpse of hope
England is your freedom
from the guillotine
from arranged marriage
from the Revolution
leaving behind your brother
to free his friend
to save a life
and risk another
to find that light
a brightness
that glimmer of hope
