        Athanasia
what will it take for you to love me?
 
        
        Athanasia
Should become like Jeanette?
 
        
        Athanasia
If I do, then will you call my name dearly like hers,
 
        
        Athanasia
and watch me with warmth in your eyes?
 
        
        Athanasia
will you hold me in your arms... without pushing me away?
 
        
        Athanasia
such a thing won't happen until the day I die.
 
        
        Athanasia
I'm your daughter too, father.
 
        
        Athanasia
I was by your side much longer than Jeanette.
 
        his voice digging into my ears was more than cruel ever
 
        
        Claude
there was a day I considered you my daughter.
 
        Claude was heartless until the very end,
 
        the deepest of despair like never before flooded Athanasia's eyes....
 
        what's this? why did I suddenly think of that novel?
 
        the romance novel I read because a costumer left it behind.
 
        the title and the plot were tacky and childish too.
 
        did I recall that book because the princess that gets executed in it...
has the same name as me...?
 
        get out of my head this instant!
what a jinx!
 
        
        maid
oh bother. how clumsy, she keeps dropping it.
 
        babies don't have good grip dummy!
 
        
        maid
don't be a nuisance and play quietly with your toy. miss.
 
        she picked it up from the ground and gave it back to me without wiping it...
 
        is she belittling me for being an "outcast" of a princess?
I sure hope not...
 
        
        maid
what's wrong? ugh, I already have my hands full with all this sewing!
 
        
        maid
here. let me get that for you.
 
        I don't want this, it's not what I want!
 
        do you really think a rattle would be entertaining at my age?!
 
        
        maid
are you bored with it now?
 
        is she going to the head maid?
 
        if you're coming back with another rattle, don't bother.
 
        I went to sleep after taking some sleeping pills...
 
        this make no sense! me, suddenly becoming a baby?
 
        and to top of it off, I'm a princess.
this is crazy.
 
        ah, this girl does this all the time!
 
        
        maid
the head maid said our budget is low. you'll just have to play with this.
 
        is she allowed to just abruptly open a door to a baby's room like this?
 
        
        maid
I won't cuddle you if you start crying. I'm really busy  right now!
 
        how cold she should be nicer to me...!
 
        I guess not every princess is treated as one.
 
        from being an orphan in my previous life, it's nice to be reborn as a princess...
 
        but why did it have to be a princess that everyone hates...!
 Episode 2
                    
        My father of this world...
 
        
        Athanasia
whoa.goosebumps...
 
        According to what I overheard from the maids talking,
 
        This Ruby palace that I currently live in,
 
        was originally where the emperor's concubines lived.
 
        In short, the emperor's harem.
 
        ... or so it was until the day I was born,
 
        when the emperor killed everyone in the Ruby palace.
 
        My mother was a dancer invited to the royal banquet.
 
        she drew the emperor's attention and was deflowered by him.
 
        But then she was forgotten...
 
        and died leaving an infant behind me.
 
        Since then, the emperor has cast me aside too, his baby girl.
 
        so I was raised by the rocking my cradle...
 
        ...I mean, the maids of this Ruby palace.
 
        
        Athanasia
what's this dirtbag of an emperor doing throwing his wife and daughter aside?
 
        leaving a baby like me here, where he committed such a cruel massacre...
 
        Ugh. Since Hearing that story for the first time I've been having a nightmares every night.
 
        but what scares me more than the nightmares...
 
        is the emperor that I've never met yet.
 
        
        Athanasia
even born a princess I didn't get lucky...
 
        what if he suddenly goes cuckoo again and tries to kill me?
 
        like he killed everyone else who was here in the palace.
 
        I should think of something else. I'm scaring myself.
 
        The name I got this life was given to me by my birth mother .
 
        such a extravagant name for an "outcast"  princess like me.
 
        it's the same name as the ill-fated princess in that romance novel " Lovely Princess."
 
        I supposed mother meant for me to live long  and prosperous in the emperor's care.
 
        Unfortunately the Athanasia from the novel faces a tragic death at the age of 18.
 
        By her father himself, no less!
 
        
        Athanasia
why do I keep thinking about it?!
 
        hmm? she's still not asleep?
 
        
        maid
Do we really need to be here? she can't move her own anyway.
 
        
        maid
( Maid.2 ) you know how fussy Lilian is, so much trouble, that one.
 
        
        maid
( Maid.3 ) think of this as  taking a break.
 
        
        maid
what if she starts crying?
 
        
        maid
( Maid.2 ) Rock her cradle, so she'll fall asleep faster.
 
        let's not take it out on me, ladies, we're all stuck here in the Ruby palace together.
 
        people would think I'm such a crybaby from the way you talk.
 
        I'm the most docile baby I know of!
 
        Lily even worries that I don't cry enough, too.
 
        the emperor never came to see me, so I supposed  they're all belittling me as an "outcast."
 
        My goal is to stay in a forgotten princess, out of his sight for as long as can!
 
        
        Athanasia
I'd be set for life if I run off with some ornaments  from this room.
 
        
        Lilian
His majesty doesn't even  think of her but  she's surrounded by such luxuries. what a life!
 
        this is a palace after all, I get three meals a day,
 
        No matter how bad I got it, it's still  the life of a princess,
 
        I'm going to grow big and strong, steal some gold, and run off.
 
        I shout get out of this crib first.
 
        
        Lilian
eat your meals exercises and grow big and strong, your highness.
 
        
        maid
we're nothing but candles in the wind. we'd  be dead with snap of his fingers....
 
        
        maid
( Maid.2 ) Yeah, why did we have to be the assigned here...
 
        
        maid
( Maid.3) Did you hear, about the ghost coming out of the kitchen every night?
 
        
        maid
it creeps me out. who knows when we might end up like that, too.?
 
        I don't want to live in a palace like this, either.
 
        the moment I gather enough money to escape with, I'm out of here!
 
        
        Lilian
do you like it that much?
 
        come to mama you sweet gold!
 
        I can now crawl around the carpet with ease.
 
        
        Athanasia
it's an emperor's castles after all.
 
        
        Athanasia
these must all be real gold and jewels right?
 
        Lily must have thought that I like sparkly things.
 
        
        Lilian
I'll bring you a new one when you get tired of it.
 
        miss, you are my cornucopia!
 
        the palace itself was luxurious,
 
        but due to the dwindling budget, I never got much to myself!
 
        
        Athanasia
I'll take this with me when I run for it. hehehe!
 
        
        Athanasia
ah! I'm drooling
 
        my days in the Ruby palace were peaceful.
 
        I never heard from the emperor for months, so he must have really forgotten me.
 
        even those who were always on their toes seemed to be more at ease, too.
 
        I'm eating my meals, exercising, getting enough sleep and growing day by day.
 
        
        Athanasia
it will be great when I can walk though. The way I can collect my escape fund faster.
 
        seems like some trinkets are dissapearing from my room...
 
        
        Athanasia
is Lily putting them away so I don't get hurt?
 
        i shout get my diaper change first. Sob. How embarrassing.
 
        
        Lilian
the sorcerer of the tower had the strongest power among all the sorcerers in existence.
 
        so there are sorcerers in this world.
 
        I knew this wasn't just some random foreign country!
I'm really in a fantasy world!
 
        
        Lilian
the sorcerer of the tower was so powerful, he could easily bring an empire to ruins.
 
        I wanna see it too!
I want to see real magic too!
 
        
        Lilian
and for that reason,  they freeze their own hearts.
 
        
        Lilian
Because such powers could be use for trivial things if passion overcame reason and emotion overcame rationally.
 
        
        Lilian
there are theories that the sorcerer form the tower destroyed the kingdom before our obelian empire.
 
        I'm going to see magic someday with my own two eyes!
 
        
        Lilian
Oh my, do you recognize who he is?
 
        
        Lilian
Yes, that right. it's your father, princess.
 
        that damn bloke who left his wife and child and is out there doing God knows what?
 
        
        Athanasia
Bee Baa!
Eeeya!
Bastard!
Trash!
 
        
        Lilian
My my. our sweet princess is certainly a bright young child.
 
        the current emperor of the obelian empire...
 
        .... is the hero who brought an end to tyrannical devil-worship ping evil king before him?
 
        this scumbag who left his daughter out here,
 
        after massacring a palace full of people is portrayed like some kind of great heroic King!
 
        I know it's just a story book, but come on!
 
        
        Lilian
that reminds me, I've never told you the majesty's name.
 
        
        Lilian
would you look at this picture again?
 
        I'm not curious!
what is there for me to know about that dirtbag?
 
        
        Lilian
your father, his majesty Claude De Alger Obelia.
