Lady Lyretta had not been born quite as blessed. She had been brought to the world because of a sinful union between her mother and the reigning King. Still she had not been that unlucky.

Her mother had been born a countess. Her poor mother had died giving birth to her, thus she had inherited her mother's title and estate at birth.

Her live had been simple but fulfilling. Since her mother had died she had been sent to live with her maternal Aunt in the countryside.

Her aunt loved her dearly and protected her in every way she could. 

Lady Lyretta's Aunt knew exactly what attitude the people held toward her sweet little niece. The people of the Kingdom of Dragon hated the child born from an affair. They felt that her birth took away from the lucky destiny of their own true princess. As a result, she who had adored her own, now deceased, older sister, had created a safe haven for the little girl. She only kept trusted servants around her Little Lady and made sure that the attitude of the masses did not affect her. This was a godsend for Lady Lyretta, though she was not aware of it. As a result of her Aunt's protection she grew up very innocent.

Lady Lyretta was a petite girl with purplish gray eyes, long chestnut hair and a devastating smile. Her looks were beyond exceptional, but her smile, that was the most attractive and charming quality the little girl possessed.

When the little girl stood still she looked innocent and pure. When she smiled and revealed her toothy smile, her looks turned so devastating that even angry men fell to their knees in tears trying to get another look.

Though she did not have a mother or father to spoil her, she had an Aunt that loved her enough for both. Her kind heart even held her stepmother and father in great esteem. As for her sister, don't even ask. She held her on an alter and nearly worshipped her. Though she had never met her, she had certainly heard of how beautiful and blessed her half-sister was. To her, her sister was someone to be revered and loved, for that reason she did not blame her father for abandoning her with her aunt, her sister needed him after all.
