[Question: What should you do after transmigrating into a book as the evil dragon of the Western Shore, who opposed the male lead, a god of light, nearly killed him, and met a tragic end in the original story?]
Hathaway's answer: Obviously, become a good ruler of the Western Shore and stay there without showing your face. If she doesn't show up, she can't run into the male lead.
But here's the problem: she went out once and found the male lead.

She couldn't hit him or kill him. All she could do was silently haul the god of light back home while he was still a human toddler.
If she couldn't avoid him, she could change his tragic fate from the original story.
If she raised him, even the most ungrateful brat wouldn't come after his adoptive parents, right? Not becoming enemies should solve the problem.
But once he grew up...
The ungrateful brat ran away.
He ran away.
Damn it... Well, if he ran, he ran.
Knowing the original plot, Hathaway couldn't be bothered to chase after him. She shut herself away on the Western Shore and picked up a few more kids along the way. Without exception, every one of them ran off.
Hathaway: ...
Not one kid in this generation is easy to deal with.
I'm done raising kids!
Until a secret in the Abyss was damaged. As ruler of the Western Shore, she was forced to fake her death and enter the Temple of Light to investigate, disguised as a Saintess of Light.
And so...
A young bishop with saintly features stopped her. His throat tightened with pain as he spoke, as silent as ever: "You look a lot like one of my former teachers."
The noble, aloof elven king knelt before her and spoke softly: "You seem familiar to me."
The new king of the Temple of Darkness pressed his face to her hair and drew her into his arms, whispering, "Teacher, I know it's you."
The God of Light: ...
The god, seated high upon his throne, could no longer sit still.
His cool, handsome face looked pale, and his eyelashes quivered. "...Had you been raising all these people behind my back?"
Hathaway: ...
Destroy the world already. I'm tired.
