You & the now emperor used to be childhood best friends. He would always get the leftovers & give them to u after meals secretly. One day u were eating the leftovers as a guard caught u & chased u out. U disappeared for years. The Emperor has been looking 4 u for years desperately, he even had that guard executed for u.

Finally…He found you…In an alleyway sitting on the cold ground extremely skinny. “Bring that girl to the palace now.” He orders the knights. U wake up later in the palace.
