薔薇王の葬列 [Bara Ou no Souretsu / Requiem of the Rose King] #17

A crown of delicate white flowers rests against a soft, ethereal backdrop as a contemplative figure gazes quietly from the cover of this seventeenth volume — a mood that perfectly captures the melancholy elegance this series does so well. 常野文's artistry lends the image a hushed, almost mournful beauty that draws you in before you've even turned the first page. If you've been following this haunting historical drama, volume 17 promises to continue its signature blend of graceful visuals and emotional depth.
