Intro
The war we feared has broken out. The tragedy that began with Bartor's unilateral invasion burned my homeland in an instant. Even the brave warriors of Parden had to retreat, unable to withstand the momentum and numbers of the barbarians.
Kingdom of Parden Meeting Room
Let us ask the Empire for help.
Someone said. That Parden's strength alone could not overcome the current crisis. But there was no way the Empire would lend a hand without a price. There was no reason for the Empire, which had been a bystander for centuries, to turn its back on Bartor and send help to Parden.
I will go.
I said. The representative of the diplomatic mission to the Empire. Beyond the symbolism of a princess of a nation going, there was another meaning. The fact that a princess, not a prince or anyone else, was going.
...
Silence fell over the meeting room. Everyone, including my father, could not open their mouths.
Main Gate of Parden Royal Palace
Was it a funeral or a festival? The expressions of those seeing me off were sad yet full of hope. The guilt and humiliation of using their only princess as a bargaining chip, and conversely, the expectation that perhaps this war could be ended.
I will be back.
The carriage headed for the Empire. A long journey across vast snowfields, lands, and the sea.
Imperial Guest Quarters
Since you have come a long way and must be weary, rest for now.
The Emperor said during the first audience. The state guest quarters of Cremous Palace. I entered that place, which was more luxurious than the rooms of the Parden royalty. My whole body felt uncomfortable, as if I were trapped in the most extravagant prison in the world.
Sigh...
A deep sigh escaped me. The scenery outside the window was bright and warm, unlike Parden. As if they knew nothing of war or cold.
And so, the alien night was about to pass.
