![]() ![]() So years ago when I first read this, I couldn't help but giving this novel a drop since then I couldn't really understand what was going on. I had first come across this novel when I was just starting out reading light novels and web novels in general. And it wouldn't feel so weird how the other characters are romantically interested in her. Maybe it was for that? But they could still do that if she was a few years older. It does make it make more sense how she's not told much and everyone tries to keep her from 'the action' though, because she's literally a small child. it's just weird the way it is written, how they both have 'warm' moments together when she's frickin 10-11.Īt first I thought maybe it was necessary from a plot perspective, but after reading a lot I don't see the reason at all. I don't get why she couldn't start at 10, and then when she meets her favourite she would be at least almost a teenager. Not to mention, this is a fantasy story with lots of historical inaccuracy, there is NO good reason to keep 'child romance/marriage' as a thing even if it was historically accurate.Īnyways, the characters and relationships are good, but I don't like how she starts SO young - she's only 5 when the story starts. Sometimes I wonder where people learn history, or they just see these justifications and accept them. And for common people, they often didn't marry until their 20's as they knew they had to save up to support. ![]() ![]() Yes engagements could be very early but they were political things, marriage and childbirth wasn't expected in early puberty for god's sake. Please don't listen to the people saying, oh that was common historically - NO it was not common for a princess to marry and HAVE KIDS at 12. This story is pretty good for the characters, but I'm not a fan of the romance and age gap. ![]()
