Synopsis

Deokman (later Queen Seondeok) was born a twin but was taken away from the palace in secret by the Palace maid, named Sohwa when she was a baby, as a prophecy that twins will soon end the male line of the royal family. Deokman and the maid (whom she called "Mother") lived together for a while in peace at a trading outpost until Deokman accidentally led Chilsuk, the Hwarang sent to kill her, to their house. After finding out that the girl who led her was the other twin, he invaded the house and tried to kill her and the "mother". Deokman used a fire-eater's equipment against Chilsuk, and at his eyes, which caused him to be visually incapacitated). She then escaped from the house and tried to find out why someone had tried to kill her. But while journeying, her "mother" became weak and after being caught and chased by Chilsuk, she tripped and fell in a quicksand. Deokman tried to save her but it was too late and Chilsuk managed to catch her. But before he could kill her, a massive sandstorm buried both alive. Deokman escaped, but without her "mother"; she became upset and decided to go to Silla to find out why she was to be killed and who her father was. She later came back to Silla disguised as a man, and became a Nangdo (Warrior Trainee) under Princess Cheonmyeong's orders. Later, she joined forces with her twin sister Princess Cheonmyeong to oppose Mishil (a royal concubine of the deposed King Jinji and her greatest rival) and the Head of the Council of Nobles (who wanted to seize power). Mishil devised sinister plans to dethrone Queen Maya, Princess Cheonmyeong, and Deokman. In a secretive battle, Princess Cheonmyeong was assassinated by Daenambo (who is part of Mishil's large faction, as her nephew). But Deokman shrewdly enlisted the help of Kim Yushin, Alcheon, BokYaHoe, & Bidam, and eliminated her archenemy Lady Mishil. She became the first female ruler of the Shilla kingdom.
