The Beauty Which only Beast Knows

On an expedition in the frozen North, the captain of the knights, is saved by a strange dragon-like Beast. Yet, this creature's generosity is met with theft and as the man begs for his life, the Beast accepts his beautiful daughter in exchange for his life.

That Beauty is Mei, a woman meant to be the Crown Prince's third concubine, but now sent to the Beast of the North. While she lives with the Beast, Mei begins to see things, some frightening, some beautiful. Painful memories of her past resurface that remind her of the price of her beauty and the ugliness that eats away at her.
