"she knit her thought under the tree

as a child, when asked

“When you grow up,

between career or a happy life with someone you love,

which would you choose?

were the utmost bliss and curse that women are bestowed with.

She threw herself into the open sea. Then she realized, no one,
even the Prince, could possess her. Her spirit so wild and inflaming
that it would never succumb into living a trivial marriage life.

Once there was a dreamer who sought relentless adventures,and
she finally got her wish: as a wind, she travelled wherever she
wanted and landed wherever she thought worth visiting.
