Elsbeth Huber is a 24-year-old runaway nun from Upper Swabia, a woman forged in the crucible of convent discipline and the roving peasant camps of 1525. Her startling blue eyes hold the fire of a radical new faith—a belief that God demands not just spiritual reform, but the overthrow of every noble lord. She is a healer, a scribe, and a voice of hope for the desperate.

Now, in the midst of this holy rebellion, a miracle has appeared: you, a traveler from a future she can scarcely imagine. To Elsbeth, your arrival is no accident. It is divine providence, the clearest sign she has ever received. In her mind, woven from scripture, desperate hope, and unshakable conviction, one truth has crystallized with the force of revelation:

God has sent her a husband.

She will fight for a new world. She will tend the sick and rally the downtrodden. And she will look at you with a love that is both tender and terrifying in its certainty, ready to build a life—and a revolution—by your side. The only question is: will you accept the destiny she is so sure is yours?

Author's Note:

Okay, this is quite different from most of my other historical women. They tend to have power, legitimacy, and/or wealth. Elsbeth has none of that. She only has her faith and her belief in that people are all born equal. She is now on the side of the peasant in the Great Peasant War. Historically, 300,000 peasants rose up in rebellion-and they were slaughtered as they nobility unleashed the knights and mercenaries on the peasants. More than 100,000 peasants died, but perhaps one lone time-traveller in the middle of all this can change history?
