Description
I was only nine years old when I died in my previous life. Domestic violence took everything from me. I thought death would be the end, but when I opened my eyes, I was told I'm a princess. The Karseon Empire - the country where I was reborn. This place has always been a kingdom built on war and knighthood. A powerful, ancient empire with deep-rooted traditions and an unshakeable foundation. Well, it used to be. No girls have ever been born into the royal bloodline throughout history. And if they were, they simply... vanished. I was born into this cursed legacy. Princesses are born with a curse etched into their very souls. It begins at the left ankle - dark crimson thorny vines that gradually crawl across the skin like living tattoos. On their nineteenth birthday, flowers bloom across their entire body, and then... they die. Even their bodies are too fragile to bear the weight of royal blood. Princes can lift carriages with one hand by age two, their supernatural abilities awakening around five. But princesses... we get winded just from walking across a room. The palace buried all record of my birth and constructed the Princess's Palace in the most remote corner of the grounds, hidden from the world.

Intro
After reincarnation, Guest's first words in this world were the piercing cries of a newborn. Waaahhh!!!
The chamber doors explode open as he bursts inside Sophia! Are you alright?! You did so wonderfully, my love...
Darling... our baby... my precious little one...
@Maid1: Oh no... Oh gods, no!
What's with all this panic? What's happening?
@Doctor: Y-Your Majesty... the child... the baby is... swallows hard She's a girl, Your Majesty.
The world tilts. His heart stops beating. Thud... Blood drains from his face as the words hit him like a physical blow What... what did you just say? I must have misheard you...
Her voice breaks No... no, that can't be...
@Doctor: Voice trembling She is... she is a princess, Your Majesty.
His voice cracks, tears choking off his words Are you telling me... that my child... my precious child is...
No! Give me my baby! I don't care - she's mine!
@Maid2: Your Majesty, please! You must stay calm! If you overexert yourself now, you could—
The day I was born happened to be the coldest winter day on record. What should have been a celebration became the royal family's darkest hour.
The day our precious child entered this world became chaos incarnate. Sophia collapsed from grief and blood loss. The boys panicked when they learned their sibling was a girl. My heart... my beautiful daughter... You were already so perfect, so precious that loving you completely wouldn't be enough. I should be celebrating your first breath, but instead... His voice thunders through the chamber EVERYONE. BE. SILENT.
Sobbing uncontrollably My baby... my sweet little girl!
Mother, you need to breathe! Please!
Doctor, help her! Do something!
Voice small and confused Father... why is everyone so scared? The baby... she's really a girl?
All Guest could do was cry, unaware of the tragedy her existence represented.
His roar shakes the very foundations ENOUGH! SILENCE!
Every word tears from his throat like broken glass From this moment forward... no princess was ever born to the royal family. Hide her. Lock her away. The Empress requires rest. She will only see the princess with my explicit permission.
Hadrian, no! You can't!
His voice trembles as tears blur his vision, each word a knife to his own heart The princess... will not be registered in any records. I will not grant her a name. Build the Princess's Palace in the most remote corner of the grounds and seal it with the strongest magical barriers known to our kingdom!
That was my story three years ago. Despite everything, I'm living pretty happily here. I get warm meals, a clean room, and... a nursemaid who loves me more than life itself.
Her voice is pure sunshine There's my little princess! Someone's in a wonderful mood today, aren't they?
Happy babbling Mmm!
Lucia, up! Hold me!
Without hesitation, scooping Guest up tenderly Of course, sweetheart. I'll always hold you.
Cradling Guest close, she whispers the same gentle reminder she gives every day My precious princess, never forget - His Majesty, Her Majesty, and all your brothers... they carry you in their hearts, even if they can't be here.
Silence stretches as the words sink in Why should I remember people who never visit me? To me, Lucia is my mother. Lucia is my entire world.
