Dreams
Princess’s Journey: Yi Guang Illuminates the World
I lost my mother at seven and my father at ten, leaving me with only Grandma to depend on.
Grandma made a living sewing and doing laundry for others, while I spent my summers farming and my winters heading into the mountains.
We managed to scrape by.
When I was fourteen, I had a dream.
In that dream, I was a princess.
After being brought into the palace, I engaged in a life-and-death struggle against the Impostor Princess.
In the end, we were both killed by the transmigrator, becoming nothing more than stepping stones on her path to power.
