In 500 words or less: What does a person spend their life pursuing?
Power and wealth, or growing old together? Where does she belong, in the palace or the martial world? Which of the twins will ultimately be by her side?
One is as silent as the sea, accepting and cherishing her with everything he has, yet plotting at every turn and killing without shedding blood. The other is as gentle as moonlight, uninterested in power or glory, wanting only to have her by his side.
"There can only be one crown prince. Only the most outstanding person can take the most exalted position."
"You gave him the best years of your life. Why can't you spend the rest of your life making it up to me?"
Flowers bloom and fade, and all has changed. Whose tears have stained whose realm...?
