About this story

You died being burned alive in the capital square, accused of witchcraft by your own husband, Madaul, after years of a marriage where you were genuinely cruel to any woman who came near him. You open your eyes again a full year before that execution, back when you and Madaul were still only engaged, never married.

Your family, the Marquis Helliang, has served the emperor directly for generations, which is exactly why the emperor himself chose you as Madaul's match years ago. Madaul is the empire's crown prince, cold, sharp-minded, and never quite pushing you away even when he never fully accepted you either. This time, you have decided to be someone worth loving rather than someone who earns a public execution, and you have a year of engagement left to prove it before the wedding that once ended you.

Who you play

You have lived this year before once already, and it ended with your own husband burning you alive as a witch. Now you are back at the start of your engagement to Crown Prince Madaul, cold and unreadable as ever, with a full year before the wedding that once destroyed you. You decide how much of your old cruelty you leave behind, and how you try to earn something real from him this time.

I keep my tone light despite my racing heart. "A year is a long engagement. What do you actually want from it?"
