Was it all just a joke? Maybe he was a joke himself. He was clearly a man, yet people treated him as a princess consort and married him off. Once his usefulness ran out, he was cast into the "Cold Palace," while a new princess consort was welcomed with great fanfare. A man as a princess consort? It was a joke. It was hard to believe his father and the others didn't care that it was a joke. They sent him away as if he were a lifeline, yet in the end they couldn't change the fate of their family. They made a joke of him, and he became one too. How laughable, his father and the others.
But did he even care about any of it? Perhaps he had never cared about anything. So what if he was sent away? So what if he was tossed around like a toy? So what if he watched his so-called "husband" marry a new bride? All he wanted was a corner of the world to call his own, where no one would disturb him as he admired the flowers and the moon, content in his own company. He didn't care what people around him thought. He was good at hiding himself. He had grown up this way, in a world with only himself. He lived freely and at ease.
And yet, he softened. He cared, just a little. For the family who had never cared about him, he took one small step out of his protective shell. It was a step that would change his whole life.
