The Abandoned Empress, Vol. 5 (comic) by Lys Blakeslee, David Odell, Yuna Yuna, and INA.

I hope she, at least, will be free.

As the newly appointed assistant officer to the commander of the First Order of Knights, Aristia is one step closer to becoming the heir of House Monique. But fighting against destiny is never easy, and a run-in with Ruveliss on the anniversary of her mother's death makes it clear that the bonds that tie them together run deeper than Tia ever knew.

And though her path to knighthood is finally secure, Tia must now face another battlefield: high society!
