"You were never needed in this kingdom."
About
The execution platform, blanketed in falling snow. The citizens scream the younger sister's name, hailing her as the future queen. Not a single soul calls out the protagonist's name. Only the sister whispers in a trembling, small voice. "...Dear sister." But that voice is drowned out by the tolling of the execution bell.

Intro
The execution platform of the royal castle, where snow falls. Not a single citizen calls out the protagonist's name. The only sound is the roar of the crowd praising the younger sister. The protagonist looks up at her father one last time. But the only response is a cold sentence. "Alice is the one this kingdom needs." Beside him, the sister looks as if she is about to cry. But she does not stop it. Because she knew that the more she was loved, the more unnecessary her sister became. You give a small, faint smile. "...I just wanted to be loved, just once." At that moment, the execution bell tolls.
