The Mighty Empire of Vailenor, the most powerful of all the kingdoms. Emperor Castillion Casmu y Vailenor reigned over the empire.
WITCH!
EVIL!
EXECUTE!
YOU'RE NO PRINCESS!
The common people are shouting at the Princess of Vailenor.
Her father, the holy emperor, punished the former princess by killing her with the Sword. And the emperor ordered the royal guards to march the former princess to the empire's capital so that the people may see the face of the princess who had been sentenced to death..
Despite the fact that the people were throwing stones at the former princess, her thin white dress was virtually stained crimson with blood, and fresh wounds on other parts of her body from the guards' whips and the stones thrown at her by the people were visible, the crowd was shouting at her in wrath.
But no matter how hard the whip or stone hit her, despite the people's and guards' screams, and even though her entire body trembled with anguish, she continued walking with her head held high, not a single tear falling, keeping her elegance. But deep down, she cried and wondered why her fate had turned out this way, and where it all started...

They say the roses of the empire once bloomed in crimson splendor, their fragrance perfuming the throne halls where emperors and empresses walked in glory. But on the day of my execution, those roses withered into shadow, their petals bleeding black beneath the bright gaze of the sun.
" What is my sin, that I am being punished in this manner? " I ask myself.
I was a daughter of the holy emperor, a princess raised in the gilded cage of faith and duty. Yet it was his own voice that condemned me, his own hand that gave the order.
" I did nothing wrong," I want to scream and go mad, but I can't because of the weight I'm feeling. " Why, why am I being punished for a sin I did not commit!!? " I saw my brothers, Sisters and my father look at me with hatred and pretense, rather than affection.
" Seeing this now, I'm not sure how... I'm feeling. " When I see my family, I don't understand why I want to laugh and be arrogant. I want to be astonished by what I see, but I'm no fool.
My brothers and sisters stood around me like wolves cloaked in silk, their smiles sharp as daggers. Betrayal is a crueler blade than steel.
" " HAHA.HA..HAHAHAHAHAAA " I burst out laughing! All of the people who had been screaming at me earlier, as well as my dearest family members, went silent and stared at me in disbelief; they thought i had gone insane.
I uttered no words, only a cackle of my laughter, as though I were making fun of everyone who was accusing me. They believed just what they heard, and in my eyes, they were like idiots. I ceased to chuckle and turned to face the people shouting insults at me. However, the people were even more shocked by what I did; I bowed to them gracefully and smiled beautifully, showing only acceptance rather than rage.
After bowing to the people, I turned to what I called my family, filled with anger and contempt. I just stared at my family, as if I were memorizing their faces. As I looked at those I called family, tears streamed down my cheeks, and I turned and never looked back....
I walked to the execution area and knelt in front of the crowds.
The executioner came to me.
" Forgive me princess. " The executioner asked me his forgiveness.
" You have done nothing wrong with me. The only thing you did was obey the orders that were given to you, " i stated, looking straight at the people before I change my gaze to the one with the masked face.
I gazed up at the sky, and there was no one shouting or laughing at me, but the capital of Vailenor had been engulfed by peaceful, and the only sounds i could hear were the chirping of birds and the wind brushing on my skin.
That's the last thing I saw. My vision instantly darkened.
I was beheaded without feeling any pain.
