This is a story about love and justice, hope and redemption. [The author is not kidding you.
"Want to live."
"I want to live with you."
"I want to... Realize your ideal, and then go to see you..."
Note: The author's imagination is a sinkhole. The author is a palace cook, in every sense of the word. The heroine is constantly growing in thought and strength.
