Diary Of An Unexpected Princess.

Have you ever wondered what it'd be like for non-royals in the world of Cora?

Kanyalak Boonmee Rivera Ali is the heir to the Duke of Penumbra, the daughter of a powerful royal and the richest, most beautiful courtesean in the water kingdom.
As glamorous as her life may seem, it wasn't always that way.

Kanyalak was born into abject poverty, living in the history kingdom during the worst economic recession in the entire recorded history of Cora; it was so bad that it caused a famine that even the royals were affected by.

Her mother, whose birth name is unknown, was forced to flee to the water kingdom just to make sure that her daughter wouldn't starve to death, and even then, they lived below the poverty line until Kanyalak was a preteen, but didn't become legally royal until the age of 15 when her supposed father married her mother and claimed her as his daughter.

How does Kanyalak handle going from never knowing when her next meal would be to having everything she could possibly want and more, and how will her mental health survive the den of vipers that is royal court politics?
