Levin's Heart

Arren's worry wasn't unwarranted. The royal family had always abided by their great reputation in the empire. The royal family persisted for five hundred years; just how long was that for them to rule this huge empire? 

It was known within the royal family that they were lenient when it came to the punishments of their members. There weren't any exiles or imprisoned in their years' history, which didn't mean no one really committed a crime before, but the royal family only punished them behind closed doors. 

Although it was true that among the royal family members, no one had ever broken the rule and tried to kill the emperor. Some rebelled, but they never thought of being labeled as emperor killers.

And now, this heavy and huge label was engraved in Princess Noreen's name... No, she wasn't a princess anymore. Her name, which tarnished the royal family's reputation, would be erased from the records.
