Chapter 1

I feel light flood my vision as the sounds of my curtains get drawn back. Even through my eyelids, the sun made it very obvious the day had begun, telling you in its own blatant way causing you to let out an unsatisfied groan. Another day of duties. Another day of boredom.
"Good morning, your majesty" the sound of my assistants voice flows into my ears. I peak open my eyes and sigh, stretching out on my Emperor sized bed. The sheets were silk, soft below you, against your skin.
"Good morning, Reisuki" I slowly sit up "how are you on this fine day?" My messy hair tickled my face, having not brushed it away yet.
"I'm great, thank you, how are you, ma'am" She asks sweetly, pulling the sheets back.
"Just call me Y/N, remember?" i smile as i rub my eyes "and i'm doing wonderfully"
"Apologies" she bows her head nobly as i step out of my bed with grace.

She hands me my pills which i take due to my heart problems.
I was born with a condition where my heart struggles to maintain a steady rhythm. The umbrella term being Arrhythmia though i have the bradycardia disease meaning my heart beats too slow. Though, sometimes i may be prone to and experience tachycardia too. Not the most pleasant experiences i must admit.
To help my heart i take Digoxin and if i miss a few days it's can get bad. Luckily, that has only happened a few times in my life. It's mostly a secret to the public eye since they'd see me unfit to rule in future.

She walks me over to my dressing room and begins to help me dress for the day.
"I must thank you for the job, Y/N"
"Why's that? I felt it was a good decision. I don't need thanking. After all, you know me fairly well" I smile as she adjusts my puffy petticoat.
"I'm very grateful" I hear her voice behind me as she puts on my corset, giving me a moment to grip onto the dressing table in front of me in preparation.

She tugs roughly on the strings, causing me to suck in my air whilst it's crushing my ribs slightly.
"Goodness, i'll never get used to it" i laugh breathlessly as she continues to tighten it.
Once she has tied it, she walks over to my gown room and brought out two, holding them up in suggestion. I place a finger on my chin as i look at them both.

Sage green or baby pink? Probably the only important question of the day, in my opinion (my parents would think otherwise, i'm sure).

I think more and finally shake my head before pointing at the one in her right hand "Green please".

She nods and returns inside to put away the pink one. When she returns, she slips it over my head, pulling it over the large petticoat and brushes it down, easing out the fabric. She does up the back and i sit down on my chair, picking up pieces of my hair and styling it onto a graceful yet practical style. In the meantime, Reisuki had left to assist with breakfast.

When i was finished i did some light makeup, i wasn't into all of the fancy, cakey type makeup my mother had insisted on. It was far too unappealing.
I stood up and admired myself in the mirror. The sage green looked beautiful with my s/c skin, complimenting it softly. Slowly but surely, i made my way over to my balcony, gently pushing open the large glass doors and stepping out so i could look upon the land. You wouldn't be able to tell from here, but the modern city isn't far from the palace.
Oh! How i wish to go some day. I want to see what the world is like. According to Reisuki, theres small devices called mobiles which you can use to contact people with! It's rather incredible really, but father wouldn't allow me one. Besides, he won't even allow me to use the only television in the building i'm meant to call home.

I inhale the early morning air and gaze down at the flower garden. I wonder if we'll play croquette today.
A gust of the chilly October breeze brushes past me, causing me to shut my eyes and appreciate the temporary feeling of freedom.

"Ma'am, are you ready for breakfast?" She calls out to me.
"Oh, yes of course" I say back, walking back inside. I shut the doors behind me and start to leave my room.
