It's been six months since the announcement of athanasia's fate, and as predicted no one took it well they all refused to believe it, Claude decided not to tell nobles and the general public the news of his daughters " illness" making it only a few knowing it
Athanasia tried to get the energy to move around and act normal but fails as her body became more weak along the months causing her to be bedridden, but even with that her family and friends stayed by her everyday, her son theor dropped out of school so he could be with her in final days, her uncle heinry ended up moving in the sapphire palace after he heard the news
Since her fight with Lucas was the last time Athanasia saw him or even heard of him, she asked Felix about his whereabouts but Felix told her he disappeared, which caused her to be fill with guilt and loneliness, she regrets saying she doesn't love him even though she said to not hurt him when she dies
Currently she was laying in bed looking at the window of the garnet palace, she moved out of the diamond palace and now is currently staying in the garnet right across from Claude's room, which is to her displease, a knock was heard
" come in" athanasia sighed a woman with straight blonde hair and green eyes walked in, it was Jeanette who has a new identity, going as Alice Patterson the only daughter of viscount Patterson, Jeannette who heard the news of athanasia "illness" from their exchange letters, came with her father to visit
" Jeanette"
" athanasia are you alright" Jeanette asked, ever since she heard the news she has been a wreck refusing to believe any of it, but when she saw Athanasia new appearance, how she small, pale, and weak she was with her thin wrist and lifeless eyes, Jeannette had to believe it was true
"Yes for someone who is on the brink of death" athanasia rolled her eyes by her stupid question, Jeanette ignored her tone and sat in her bed and gave her a cup of water
" how come you didn't tell anyone, we could've helped you, why do you keep everything to yourself and push everyone away" Jeanette asked, she didn't understand athanasia, she tried so hard to but her sister always do things she never understands, like pushing everyone away when it will hurt her in the end, her closed off rude attitude, her lack of empathy towards others, and having to hear that her sister prisoned her father for two years for no apparent reasons
"Because I like being by myself and it is my wished to leave this place"
" but what about us" Jeanette said Athanasia glared at her by her question, what about them? Athanasia has given them everything always putting herself last but now that she puts herself first in this life it's suddenly an issue
" what of you all, I don't want to live anymore"
" but-"
" Jeanette just leave I don't want to see your face" athanasia sighed Jeanette nodded and left her alone, she sighed again and stared at the walls of her bedroom, no one could change her mind, Moira gave her a wished and told her what will happened in the end and she agreed, she is a woman of her word
*cough cough cough* she began to cough hysterically covering her mouth with her handkerchief, a she wiped blood that came out, she sighed and laid back down and closed her eyes
" are you okay" a voice interrupted her peaceful moment, she opened her eyes and saw Claude staring at her, Claude who has been trying to be calm about the whole situation finds himself reaching his limit
Annoyance washed over athanasia seeing the man she wants to see the least in her room" yes I am" she answered claude walked over to her and stayed quiet just staring at her
" when I die, I would like to be cremated" she said, right before she regressed, she saw her body get thrown in the woods, Claude didn't even let her to rest with the rest of the deceased royals
