I remembered when it used to be just my mother and me, back in the previous world I lived in.
Do you know my story and my name, then?
Penelope, the common-born girl who used to live a normal and simple life with my mother.
My father was a foreigner from the Far East across the sea, and he passed away when I was very young, my maternal grandparents used to lived with us too, but they passed away when I was eight years, so it was just me and mom.
My mother was a merchant, not the wealthiest one, of course, but she did help out people from the common society, as I remembered, she loved flowers, especially roses.
She taught me about how plants worked to make herbs and flowers as herbal medicine as she learned from grandpa, along with trading the food and clothing.
We would've become famous and of course, helping people since that's what she wanted to do and explore the world.
I wanted to see the world but yet, but the worst moment of my life happened.
My mother got sicked...no cursed, she got cursed by someone. I know it since all the medicine and herbs we used to help others worked but except for her.
I felt it.
She died when I was 12 years old, and then, I was left homeless with her body wrapped in blanket and living in the poorest slum.
I did my best to survive by using the knowledge my mother gifted to me, even I kept some of her journal. If one day, I became a grew up and become a merchant, I will make sure those poor people living in the same hellish slum don't suffer this kind of hell. I did my best to help them while living hungry, covered by dirt and doing my best to keep her body from being eaten by rats and strays.
But one day, a gentleman of a high noble birth came into my life.

The Duke of the Eckhart Dukedom, I heard he was wealthiest among the nobles in the empire, and of course, he was a duke, who has highest title of the nobles.
He suddenly asked me if I wanted to go with him as his adoptive daughter, which at first, I was shocked, and I thought he had lost his mind since all nobles are arrogant and obnoxious people corrected by my mom and grandma.
But he looked so heartbroken with sad eyes as if he had lost someone. I knew he lost his daughter who went missing a year ago, and they haven't fought which many believes she died.
Something so similar to my circumstances.
I guess I pitied him for that due to my upbringing, and I took him and accepted to be his daughter out of compassion I felt for him.
