Duchess in Ruins, made by Candlebambi with collaborators, is a WEBTOON Original updating every Monday. Edele Lancaster was groomed to be the perfect noble lady, and when the husband she married reluctantly commits treason, she is branded a traitor and made a slave.
She tries to take her own life to preserve her honour as a noblewoman, and her new master, Count Laslo Krissus, prevents it. What follows asks whether freedom and happiness can be redefined from the position of a maid. The question the book keeps returning to is what is left of a person once rank has been taken away entirely.
