About Tearmoon Empire
The empire’s one and only Princess, Mia Luna Tearmoon, was 20 years old when she was executed at the Tearmoon Capital, Lunatia.
Mia was still not sure why she had landed in that situation. She obediently ended up getting executed. But instead of dying, she traveled back in time and woke up as her younger self.
Princess Mia was not sure how it happened, but she remembered that the empire was in ruins at the hands of the revolting army when she was 17.
Then, she was imprisoned in an underground cell for three years, but she got caught while on the run. Since Mia was still ten years old, she was not sure if she just had a vivid dream.
She couldn’t believe something like that would happen. Mia found her old and weary diary. When she read her diary, it became clear that all of the things she experienced were not just dreams.
The chef served her tomato soup and bread for dinner. But she remembered hating the soup back as a kid, so she fired the chef.
Mia tasted the soup, but it was not as disgusting as she remembered. It tasted like the best meal she had had in her entire life; even the bread was very soft and delicious.
Mia realized that after being inside the prison for three long years and not getting any kind of food for years, She learned to appreciate her chef and the food he served her.
The maids and chef were shocked because they knew Mia as a rude and selfish princess. Mia realized her maid’s kindness and the people around her who genuinely cared for her wellbeing. Mia made it her mission to avoid execution by the guillotine.
