Maid: I know Min-Ha,

Just then Min-Ha's eyes welled up again.

Maid: what happened Min-Ha?

Just then Min-Ha burst into tears.

Elara rushes towards her taking her in an embrace.

Maid: don't cry Min-Ha.

Min-Ha Shin*FL**princess of Cheong-na*

Maid: for now stop crying and close your eyes...

Min-Ha closed her eyes but don't stop crying, and sobbing tears falling from the corner of her eyes and how can she even? Stop crying? After what was about to happen with her.

She was about to get married to a man she had never seen

it was almost like to being married to a stranger to an unknown person

And she was not also enough old for get married either

She was going to pay the price of the century old rivalry between those Kingdoms

What a cruelty has her fate have showed her

She's now just a pawn in this political Game of Thrones, Kingdoms, crowns...

Back in the chambers of King Hose-ok Shin.

Den-lac Shin*older brother of FL*

Father couldn't we find other way? How can you just sacrifice your own daughter like this!

King Hose-ok Shin*father Of FL*

Dear we are from the royal families we just don't have the responsibilities of just our family, we have responsibilities of thousands people's family.

King Hose-ok Shin*father Of FL*

We have to make some sacrifices...

Li-rien Shin*middle sister of ML*

Father if it was just a matter of a sacrifice then maybe we could make it, but it's a destruction for Min-Ha

Li-rien Shin*middle sister of ML*

I am saying father I will marry him except Min-Ha.

King Hose-ok Shin*father Of FL*

This isn't the way 😔 Li-rien please understand.

Den-lac Shin*older brother of FL*

But fa—

Queen mother Ra-hein Shin *mother of FL*

Queen mother Ra-hein Shin *mother of FL*

Queen mother Ra-hein Shin *mother of FL*

I don't know what is my little daughter is doing this time.

King Hose-ok Shin*father Of FL*

Yes you are right let's see where's she.

Then they all went to her bedchambers.

Meanwhile, Min-Ha in her bedchambers

Min-Ha was fallen asleep

Elara gently settles her on the bed.

Maid: I am sorry Min... But I can't do anything in this... I am feeling so much guilty of this because when everyone had branded me as a traitor you were the only one who took my side...

Maid: you have always supposed me as your friend...

Maid; but I am not able to do a single thing for you 😔...

Maid: you have make my life permanently, but I can just comfort you temporary...

Maid: please forgive me if you can... Rest now my angel

She kisses her on forehead.
