--------------------------------------------------------POV-------------------------------------------------------

I remember that day, the day misery started to engulf my life. Mother and Father were in the Tea Room, they always loved to drink tea together ever since they laid eyes on each other. I  had my maids and knight to escort me to my parents, as they open the door for me to the tea room-

"Mommy!!Daddy!!" I reached out                                                                                                                                   "Oh my my baby darling-"

*Woosh*                                                                                                                                                                                     I can hear the glass shattered by an unknown force, then I saw it. A man in a black robe aimed an arrow to my parents. 

*Blood shatters*                                                                                                                                                                      "MOMMY!!DADDY!!"I shouted. I went out the door to call help, I saw the knight who escorted me and grabbed him by his hand. We entered the Tea Room witnessing a murder of a noble, the knight alerted his fellow mates and called the best doctor in the whole Empire.

But it was already too late, it was too late for me, a young child to protect my parents. I ended up witnessing my parents die in my own eyes. The funeral has already started and the will of my father was being read.

"What?!" I gasped.                                                                                                                                                                   " I Hernan Felez Roshte, hereby pass on all of the land, treasures, and most importantly the title of Count to my daughter Yerenica Felez Roshte."

Everyone was in appalled, how can a mere 8 year old have the title of Countess?!?                             "She still needs a legal guardian!!" a person shouted                                                                                            Rumble began to happen and it has decided that my mother's sister, Childea Lez, my aunt to be my legal guardian until I am in an age of a proper adult.

I was forced to stay in my aunt's place and welcomed me whole heartedly, but, I still did not know what the world have for me, I still did not know everyone's intentions. "Oh my poor niece, I shall vow to be someone you can see as your own mother, someone who you could trust" my aunt Childea said with a sweet tone. Those words comforted me as I was still in trauma of what happened. Never to know that the mouth that says the sweetest words have a sharp end which is waiting to stab you in the back.

Over the years Aunt Childea's vow suddenly vanished.                                                                                         "Who said you can spend your money like that? I am your legal guardian!?!" she exclaimed. I was blinded by her vows and still turned a blind eye to it. By the time I turned 18 she married me off to an old merchant in town without any heirs. I was dumbfounded as I was supposed to have my title as Countess! She stole the money and spent it off with her greed and took the lands my father passed to me. I was devastated, as today, was the first night of marriage with that filfthy old man. He went inside the room drunk and pinned me down. I struggled and tried to get away, but how can a fragile girl like me win against a man.

He forced me while i cried, the next morning I was covered in bruises and wounds. Nobody cared, time passed by and I was still unable to conceive a child. I was in mixed feelings and I didn't know what to do anymore. Until the 778th year of the Empire I was able to conceive a daughter, Felecia, my sunshine, she had my Black hair and the most beautiful blue eyes. The merchan was furious as I was not able to conceive a son, he questioned if Felecia was his child. He locked me up in a room where darkness was present, he separated me from my daughter. He didn't provide me any food nor water those days I was trapped. I was in depression already, I missed my parents, I miss my daughter. Its all because of this Childea woman!!!

Life was already nothing for me, I don't believe that there will be something good left for me. I decided to let go of this wretched world.
