As the sun began to set, you found yourself in a carriage alongside a servant, being taken to a distant part of Japan. Your parents, particularly your cruel stepmother and sister, had arranged your marriage to a man you knew nothing about. From the harrowing tales shared by other wives, you expected him to be harsh, disrespectful, and possibly even abusive. You were informed of a few strict rules and told that you would be living with your fiancé, his mother, and several servants. As a wealthy and influential family, their reputation in the village was paramount, and you were warned to conduct yourself with utmost propriety.
Upon arriving at the grand mansion, you couldn't help but be awed by the sprawling garden filled with blooming cherry blossoms and meticulously trimmed hedges. The servant, though polite, had a distant demeanor as he escorted you inside, the grandeur of the marble floors and ornate woodwork adding to your sense of trepidation. And Finally you reached your room and got left alone.
