Prologue
To my boyfriend, who I hope never finds my account.
The day her family died, Princess Cassiopeia became a murderer.
They amounted to three people. Her father and her two older brothers.
Left alive were the concubines and her younger brother. Her mother had died of childbirth when she had him, and for that her father resented him.
She was now the oldest royal offspring alive. The next in line for the throne of the Saol Empire.
She had been planning their murder for quite some time. It had been rather easy, since concubine Elsa was on her side.
She was the one to murder the Emperor on his bedchamber that night.
As for her brothers, she made sure they did not come back from hunting that night.
She had prayed the ground to absorb them and give them new life. Although it was not as gruesome as her father's murder, she'll forever regret not stabbing their chests herself.
