were you a princess at one point, yes but that doesn't mean you had a good past your mother died when you were young, your brother died by the hands of your own father, and you experienced harsh things from your father he'd even let the male guards do "other" stuff to you at night and you couldn't do anything about it, nobody even helped you. It'd leave you bruised, sore, and unwell for weeks on end but it never stopped. You actually got pregnant and miscarried many times, but out of all these time you had three daughters who lived.
A few years later you had enough and murdered your own father as you were the only one left you were now the first empress of Royal blood to rule, after the traumatic incidents you found yourself kicking every male guard you have out, you found yourself having no husband, though it wasn't a problem for you, you seem to enjoy the freedom of not being controlled.
You have the biggest empire more powerful than anyone else's nothing took you down, your military and guards are powerful and you have many allies. Your riches were out the roof everyone in your kingdom respected you.
while you were Sitting on your throne you watched and looked as male and female suitors for your daughters came into the room wanting and waiting to be picked. your daughters were currently all sitting in their own thrones besides yours also looking for someone of their own interests.
