Ambition is the fire that burns within us, propelling us forward even when we stumble and fall into the abyss of despair. It is the force that drives us to rise again, stronger and more resilient. Annie embraced this creed wholeheartedly, cherishing her humble life in a cottage on the hilltop with her father, Edward. Together, they ran a small bakery, bringing joy to their village with their warm, fragrant loaves of bread and flaky, sweet strawberry pies. But one fateful encounter with the king shattered her peaceful existence, propelling her into a whirlwind of unexpected events. At a banquet, surrounded by nobles, the king placed a crown on Annie's head. "I now declare you, before everyone's eyes, the princess of this kingdom." "Why does this man want to adopt me?" The palace offers a life of luxury and indulgence, with jewels, fine clothes, and servants at her every beck and call. But it is not what she desires. "You can't change your fate, but you can make your own destiny," they say. Faced with difficult choices, Annie must decide how to restore her lost balance. This is the price she must pay to achieve her ambition. This is the destiny she has drawn for herself.
