Eorka Empire Presents:

The Hunting Competition Opening Ceremony.....

[viroman]

Pregnant Penelope: I want the stolen strawberries.

Callisto: Did I hear wrong?

Penelope: Steal me a strawberry.

Callisto: my love, are you serious?

Penelope: Yes, and some really hot sauce.

In the evening of the same day, the entire capital whispered that the great emperor of the Eorka Empire, who had won a difficult war of conquest, defeated the dragon and Leila, had stolen a basket of strawberries from one of the merchants.

P.S. Cedric, who found out about this the next day, of course, found this merchant and paid him.

*sound of the machine alarm switching off*

Hello, guys~ Today, we have an incredible journey to 2021... because at that time (right?), we read the arch of ✨️The Hunting Tournament✨️ in the manhwa.

Let's use memes to recall some of the events...

Eckles: Interesting, what is my master doing now?

At this time, Penelope:

Don't tell me that the System hasn't reminded you of a Troll at least once.

Without further ado, you've figured it out.

Next–

But I was sad for those children, by the way! I am still worried about the sudden attack of one of the kid :c

The unexpected section "Learning how to go hunting for crown princes with the nobles of Eorka!"

Today, we have a lesson from Baron Tulitte! Take out your notebooks and write down...

The method👍 I rate it 10/10

Have you written everything down? Now burn the notebook. No, it's not environmentally friendly. In the bin.

And here are some spoilers!

However, this is no longer The Hunting Tournament.

Leave the guy alone, he has amnesia, he doesn't understand what you're asking him anyway.

And... As always, a bonus in the end ^^'

Penelope: Marquis, you... let Reynold look after Laon so easily?

Winter: They seem to get on well.

Penelope: But my brother is like a child in an adult body!

Winter: Well... don't they have fun?

Penelope: No, you don't understand me—

PRINCESS CHARMING

Penelope Eckhart x Female Reader (CINDERELLA AU)

• Penelope Eckhart, a resplendent princess of the illustrious Eorka Empire, captivated every gaze with her distinctive magenta-hued tresses and enchanting teal eyes.

"BEHOLD, PRINCESS PENELOPE OF [EORKA] EMPIRE!"

• Admiration enveloped the onlookers, yourself included, as she emerged, a vision of beauty that held your attention steadfastly. Time seemed to stand still as your eyes met, and a subtle widening of her eyes mirrored the intrigue that danced between you.

"HOW WONDERFUL. I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THE PRINCESS COULD ACTUALLY BE SO BEAUTIFUL AND LOVELY TO LOOK AT IN PERSON..."

• Unacquainted with your identity, one couldn't help but wonder...why did it feel like it was love at first sight? Your attire, a masterpiece in the hue of [f/c], adorned your figure elegantly, complemented by the choice of (black or white) gloves that concealed your hands.

'WHAT A STUNNING WOMAN. I'VE NEVER SEEN HER AROUND THIS EMPIRE BEFORE.'

• Amidst the swirl of guests engaged in lively conversations, the waltz's melodic strains lingered in the air. Penelope gracefully approached you, extending a greeting with a kind smile that left you pleasantly surprised. Her outstretched hand and charming smile heightened her already considerable charisma.

"MAY I HAVE THIS DANCE?"

• The waltz seamlessly transitioned into another composition as both of you, hands entwined with the other resting on each other's waist, glided across the floor with grace. Your gowns flowed with each fluid movement, a spectacle that held the onlookers captive. From a distance, spectators marveled at the enchanting dance, witnessing exchanged smiles and joyful laughter in the brief yet delightful conversation between you and the princess.

"IT WAS A PLEASURE DANCING WITH YOU, YOUR HIGHNESS."

• The clock's impending chime at 10 prompted a hasty departure, leaving the palace in a state of bewilderment, Penelope included, her expression a blend of confusion and hurt.

"WAIT! WHAT IS YOUR NAME?!"

• Urgency marked your exit, a lost heel on the stairs inadvertently left behind. Observing your departure, Princess Penelope felt disappointment welling in her heart. However, the discovery of the glass heel sparked a delicate display of surprise, a small smile forming on her lips, and a glimmer of hope rekindling in the magenta-haired princess' heart.

"MAYBE I COULD SEE HER AGAIN..."

• Determined, Princess Penelope spared no effort in scouring the town for you. News of her quest reached your stepsisters, freezing you in place as their words divulged the princess's intentions.

"DID YOU KNOW? THE PRINCESS IS SEARCHING FOR THE WOMAN WHOSE FOOT MUST BE PERFECTLY FIT TO THE GLASS HEEL SHE HOLDS! IF SHE FINDS THE ONE, SHE WILL GIVE THEM DOZENS OF RICHES AND BE FRIENDS WITH THEM!"

• At the gates of your mansion, attempts by your stepsiblings to fit the glass heel proved uncomfortable for the princess, and her weary plea echoed.

"PLEASE, DO NOT FORCE IT OR IT MIGHT BREAK..."

• Despite the efforts, success eluded them. As Penelope prepared to depart, a voice emanated from you, rekindling hope. Turning around, her eyes locked with yours, realization dawning as you descended the stairs, now dressed as a commoner.

"YOUR HIGHNESS?"

• With uncertainty and surprise in her eyes, Penelope cautiously asked if you could try the glass shoe, to which you agreed. Holding the glass heel, you hesitated before putting it on – a perfect fit.

"IT'S YOU..."

• In that moment, Penelope's eyes lit up in joy and relief, a beautiful smile adorning her face as she took your hand in hers. Her eyes sparkled, and her smile radiated warmth.

• Subsequently, she proposed a private moment in a tranquil forest, and you agreed. Amidst the chirping of birds and rustling of trees, she inquired about your well-being.

"SO HOW HAVE YOU BEEN? YOU STILL DIDN'T TELL ME WHAT YOUR NAME WAS."

• A soft, sheepish chuckle escaped your lips as you shared your name, and Princess Penelope, in turn, repeated it with delicate grace. Her lips curved into a smile, a gentleness that seemed to transform the air. The wind tousled her wavy hair as she gazed at you with eyes so soft, prompting a pondering thought: was this truly the reputed mad dog of the Eckhart royal family?

"Y/N...HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OF MARRYING SUCH A DISGRACEFUL PRINCESS LIKE ME?"

[kuroneko1815]

Choose your sacrifice

Just a funny little thought that came in my mind…

“It was said that the gods were angry at Eorka and had unleashed the plague, to quell it, the noble families with more than one child must each sacrifice a virgin, even the Imperial Family shall make a sacrifice.” The Duke read out.

They all turned to Penelope, the logical sacrifice but she seemed unbothered. “It said virgin, it didn’t say maiden.” She pointed out as she sipped her tea. “Besides, I’m not one anyway. I’m three months on with the Crown Prince’s child.”

Everyone froze in horror as they stared at her. Really, they were well and ready to throw her in as a sacrificial lamb but mention the fact that she was with child and they’d enter a crisis.

“I suppose the Crown Prince is out as a sacrifice as well.” She shrugged. “Now you’ll have to choose either of my brothers, I believe.”

Evil laugh. Sorry, I just couldn’t help myself. I’m curious which of the brothers you guys would choose. Meanwhile… in the background, Callisto and Penelope happily plan their wedding and the coming birth of their little one. But for real… it was just something that popped into my mind weeks ago and I posted it somewhere else first before I put it up here.

SUOL-nim Season 4 Livestream recap!

Note: This will only be the English portions since I don't speak Korean or Japanese (ノAヽ)

Reminder: DO NOT SHARE IMAGES OR SCREENSHOTS OF SUOL-NIM'S STREAM. WE AREN'T ALLOWED TO DO THAT.

Season 3's recap

Thank you to @eloise-writes-things, @leila-lirui, @bluebutterflyrose, and @karmablacks for helping supplement some of this information when I was outside or when I was sick ^^

This time she's streaming on Youtube instead of Twitch! However, the VOD will still not be saved afterward.

As speculated, the cover is Winter and Siyeon(our transmigrator FL), with the necklace Winter gave her in the caves :)

volume 6 will be out this summer(approximately)

Unfortunately, she doesn't know when the English translation will be licensed since it's between Gyeoeul-nim and the publisher,,

Her voice is so nice... she speaks Korean, English, and Japanese too!

Return of the pink underlayer for the magenta hair!

She talked a little about the Alice in Wonderland dress! The color was specified in the novel as "sky-blue", and SUOL-nim thought it would be fitting for Siyeon to wear such a dress while adventuring with our White Rabbit, Winter

Ahh I had to leave the house for a few hours so the stuff below are all my panicked notes. Some of these are out of order, sorryyy

SUOL-nim showed us the concept arts of the characters individually.

Fun fact, Siyeon and OG!Penelope's concept art has them wearing the same colored shoes, but Siyeon's shoes have low heels, almost like flats.

She says that out of all the characters, Callisto is the hardest to draw. This is especially since his golden hair has narrative importance and the aesthetic is hard to nail down.

The webtoon is mostly SUOL-nim's own work! She doesn't really speak to Gyeoeul-nim about work matters or help in adapting some scenes.

It takes her a week to finish a chapter, so she doesn't really have a "backlog" of progress. This is also why there's an extra week of break after four weeks.

One of the most memorable changes she made in the adaptation was changing the Empire's name from "Inca" to "Eorka". She reasoned that because "Inca" is the name of a real Empire, it would be confusing. Thus, she changed it.

The anagram of "Eorka" to "Korea" was completely accidental.

She has an Instagram for her SUOL account(like how she has a personal and a work Twitter) but has no plans on using it since her Twitter is overwhelming.

She doesn't have a favorite dress, but one of the ones she's especially attached to is the white Goddess dress since most of Penelope's wardrobe is dark.

She shows her folders occasionally, and we get little peeks of concept art for characters like Ivonne, the assassins, Penelope's male disguise, Cedrick, Emily's Hunting Competition dress, Winter's layered clothing, and minor characters, as well as the tiny bird monsters.

She also showed the dress concepts for Season 3!

In addition, we got to see a rendered concept of Penelope(think the promotional portrait) as well as a version of that style for Reynold and Penelope's faces in her folders.

There was also a WIP with Eckles and Penelope, perhaps a small illustration she scrapped, hasn't released yet, or just a concept.

We also got to see a silly doodle of Penelope, a redraw of a Crayon Shin-Chan frame(it's a popular kids manga/anime in East Asia).

The original was Shin-Chan trying to decide between a few identical outfits; the VADD version is the one where Penelope is surrounded by objects representing each ML.

The ointment from Reynold, the scroll from Callisto, Winter's mask, Eckles' collar, and Derrick's bird cage.

Her rendering is immaculate; Siyeon glows off the page.

The info after this is second-handed since I'm still sick and I fell asleep an hour before it ended ;-; but my throat is killing me and my ears were ringing

The Eckles Penelope art is the preliminary sketch for the physical Vol. 6(from my calculations!)

She moved to sketches around this time ^^

For the top row, SUOL-nim drew a Penelope, an Eckles getting dressed, and a sulky baby Reynold in a onesie. To the right of him is a doodle of him and Derrick in high chairs, with the Duke and a heavily pregnant Duchess watching over them.

On the bottom row, we have Emily in a noblewoman's dress and a fan with her hair pinned up(with feathers!), the head butler Pennel, and an overworked salaryman Cedrick on his phone.

Edit: He's chatting about Callisto with his feet on the table while thinking about strangling Callisto loll.

The stream was approximately 6 hours long!

Also, something she reiterated for a bit: Season 4 is planned to come out in August/September. The dates are tentative but she wants to get it out to us by that period.

It was nice seeing a lot of the discord and tumblr crew!!

Also, the stream tea: SUOL-nim requested that we translate our comments that weren't in Korean, English, or Japanese since she has to moderate the chat still and she doesn't want to feel left out of her own stream. Even if it's conversing amongst themselves, they should still translate.

A group of Arabic-speaking viewers actively ignored her and there were small fights in chat, and she even addressed this issue TWICE.

And in the end they still didn't do it, so... PLEASE RESPECT SUOL-nim's stream rules! At the end of the day, it's still HER stream! She has to moderate it! Don't make it unnecessarily difficult for streamers to stream!

This is basic chat etiquette.

[brotherslayer]

hello! Sorry for barging in like this! (also sorry for my poor english too)

First I’d like to thank you for the recents posts bringing some very welcomed nuance to the character of Iklies I’m VADD. After the release of the new season cover, I felt like there was a significant wave of hate directed to the character - and, well, kinda for the wrong reasons? I mean, it’s absolutely understandable to not like him and call out the toxicity, but there were some readers who actively spread misinformation to get the character in a very bad light? And using some colonising rhetoric?? Guys??? This is not the take you might think this is???

I think I might’ve wanted to vent a bit with someone more open to a nuanced discussion, since I think the whole work is too well crafted to be reduced to a ‘black and white’ interpretation.

First what really caught my attention was using the description seen in the novel about how “Delman’s are savages” like?? 1. the poster themselves recognises that it’s a description used by Derrick (if I’m not mistaken), who is anything BUT a trustworthy source; 2. I bet the colonising, slaving country won’t have nice things to say about the people they just conquered? Not to mention is a description frequently used to even justify such actions, as it was in our own world (colonising nations having the “duty” to bring reason, advancement and enlightenment to such poor, barbaric people, who couldn’t know any better); 3. even if all of that was true, who is to say that every single countryman is like that? Are they not allowed to have their own individuality? Should we judge every Eorka citizen using Derrick as the standard then? Would that be fair?

Then what most caught my attention was the description that “He had a nice childhood, despite being a bastard (???), therefore he had it easy and by being such a violent man it only shows how much of a monster he’s always been”. I don’t even? Aside from the argument itself not making the slightest sense, from my reading of the novel the whole “bastard-lost prince” (a very beloved common trope for MLs in any other case, mind you) seemed pretty vague, and I thought it might’ve even been the result of Leila’s manipulation/mindcontrolling - since this way, with Iklies having some sort of “pedigree”, he would seem himself as “worthy” of Penelope, like Callisto (the Crown Prince) is. Was that part of his backstory truly confirmed? It could just be a wrong interpretation of mine, since it’s been some months since I’ve read it (thought, quite sincerely, I don’t think it being truth or not would change anything - the story starts with him being already a slave, being sold in an auction after fighting hungry dogs that would devour him to show his prowess for potential buyers, no amount of happy childhood will make this less f up).

Sorry for ranting so much! I was just really happy to see your posts and analysis!

Hope you have a nice day!

I remember that post! The pro slavery and colonising rhetoric was very uncomfortable to read and I think I blocked them after they tried to "educate" me in the comments of my posts and eventually used insults to force me to change my opinion.

I'm interested to see the passage that says Iklies allegiently had a good childhood when he was an illegitimate child of the King, because manhwas traditionally show the struggles and trauma of being a bastard. Princes often didn't have a good relationship with their half brothers. See the Ottoman Empire where they eventually legalized systematic fratricide. Furthermore if Delman is a warrior nation as implied and Iklies was really treated as a prince then wouldn't he have been expected to fight in the Livius war and gain combat experience? If he was then he's a child soldier and still didn't have a good childhood. If he was not then it's likely that he was just treated as a nobody. And no matter how good his childhood was it's not going to become an armor that can protect him against the trauma of having his rights stripped off him and treated like human garbage. What kind of logic is that anyway. Penelope didn't have a good childhood but Iklies had one that's why he deserves to suffer in the future, because he never had to suffer before?

"such a violent man it only shows how much of a monster he’s always been" I have huge issues when they call Iklies a psychopath or claim he was born evil. Together with them claiming that the people of Delman are thieving, murdering savages consumed by greed and violence. It doesn't only sound like stereotyping but also as if the root of the evil is in their genes. Which we know was historically used to justify ethnic clensing. They echo the words of Derrick who believes in the superiority of the Eorkan military power and the intrinsic evil of the Delman's that is defined by colonialism ideology. Why should we trust the words of someone who treated his own stepsister as a subhuman because she was of commoner blood? His family owns a diamond mine, he directly benefits from slavery. Of course he would defend it with every breath.

Certain Callisto stans/Iklies antis say the Delman people had it better in slavery than in freedom. How can the country of Delman be poor and uncivilized when the Eorkan military suffered huge losses due to Delman's archery skills? For Delman to last for years in a war against an Empire, the country would had to have an organized and well trained army, a food supply and a functioning infrastructure. The farmers would have lived comfortably enough that they could work hard and keep sending their army supplies throughout the years. The war would have been won in a week if Delman was really just a bunch of unwashed savages who didn't know left from right. Moreover if Delman wasn't a wealthy country and rich in natural resources the Eorkan Empire never would have invaded it. I even question the claim that Delman had been plundering from smaller countries, because if they had an army that could damage the Eorkan Empire that much why did they never annex the smaller countries? The plundering at the borders might have been done by thieves that had nothing to do with the army of Delman. Or it might have been just invented and used as an excuse to conquer them. Either way even if it was true, as you said, does that justify what happened to the cripples, the wives and children at home? "Your father was killed, your mother raped by soldiers, your younger sibling tortured to death and you were sold into slavery but you should be thankful because now you get to live in a civilized society serving your family's murders until they decide to do the same to you."

Hello!! I wanted to ask about Emily and Iklis. Why doesn't anyone notice that they are literally the same in terms of appearance? They are both brown-eyed brunettes, Iklis has only gone more into gray. they... well, they could be a brother or sister... or relatives... I just re-read the chapters with the appearance of Iklis in the Eckharts a few days ago and there was a frame where they are together and this thought appeared

Ooh, I'd never noticed that before! Maybe Emily's family moved to Eorka shortly before the war with Delman, or during it? I don't think there's any real information about Emily's family ever, other than the fact she started working for the Eckharts when she was like nine so 👀

[roseadleyn]

𝘼𝙘𝙖𝙘𝙞𝙖 𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐝, 𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐞.

some of my ocs x some manhwas, let's see where this goes ^^

Penelope leans back with a sigh. Her tired hand massages her temples wearily.

Don't do it.

She doesn't want to.

But she desperately needs another ally on her side. Yvonne's arrival is closer than ever. Her birthday is less than three weeks away--she cannot stop the familiar flutterings of panic from closing up around her throat.

Don't do it.

Why would he even agree to begin with? It is not like she has an excellent reputation, especially abroad. And especially him, an Emperor, so intelligent and sought after if he's in his right mind he'll never agree. The paper for the letter is still blank, and her hand holding the quill hasn't moved.

What should she even write? 'Dear Your Majesty, sorry to bother you, but I need your help.'

Even inside her own head the words sounded idiotic.

OK. Let's do this. She takes a deep breath and begins her letter, choosing words so carefully... she wouldn't even write to the crown prince like this. After almost 45 minutes, and after many, many, many failed attempts, she has finally composed an acceptable letter and sealed it into an envelope.

'Emily!' She calls.

The maid peeks into the room. 'Yes, Miss?'

'I want you to send this letter.'

Emily's eyes widen when she takes in the address. 'But.. this is for..'

'I know who it's for, Emily,' Penelope grumbles, 'especially considering I'm the one who wrote it. I also want you to never mention this letter to anyone in the household.'

Because all they'll do is cause problems, she silently adds.

Raymond fastens the clasp of his cloak, and then picks up the letter and reads it over again for the umpteenth time. This letter had arrived a week before, and it clearly sought after his help. He could tell that despite it not being written in the letter.

Eckart, Penelope Eckart... Why would a lady like her ever need his help?

And even if had been sent by anyone else, Raymond had a habit of helping those who needed it.

So, curiosity, interest and instinct (?) meant that a week later he had made preparations for traveling to the Eorka Empire, and that he had consulted with Emma over his matters.

Emma frowns as she checks his things. 'I don't like it when you leave me.'

Raymond responds with a laugh. 'Emma, don't fuss, I'll be back before this week is up.'

'Well.' He could tell Emma was trying her best to hold herself back, but she said, 'you know, this lady is very well sought after especially after what happened in the hunting competition and '

'Emma, I'm not going there to propose marriage. Also, do you think her brothers will strike me down where I stand just because I talked to her?'

Emma, who had met both Reynold and Derrick, mutters, 'Wouldn't put it past them, especially the first one, he stares at Lady Penelope in such a creepy manner.'

Raymond looks up from the letter. 'Did you say something?'

'Yes. Give the eldest brother a kick from me.' She stands up on tiptoe and kisses him on the cheek. 'Go have fun. Safe travels.'

Raymond is so red that she thinks he might malfunction, but he manages to smile. 'See you, then.'

Penelope knows that she will eventually have to tell the duke about Raymond, but she keeps on delaying until the evening before his arrival. She smooths out her dress as she approaches the room where her 'family' sits eating dinner. As she enters the room, the duke looks up. 'Penelope? This is a pleasant surprise. I'll have them bring in another chair '

Now, because she feels hungry, she normally sits down to eat. But Derrick is stating at her and she feels an odd sense of foreboding, thus she makes a mental note to eat once she gets upstairs. 'Um, no, father, I'm not hungry,' she lies, 'I just came to inform you that I have invited a guest tomorrow.'

'A guest? Who is it?'

Penelope scans the room, hoping against hope that she won't have to say it, but she says, 'Raymond of Asmen '

She's interrupted when Reynold slams his hands down, 'No! You invited that bastard? Do you have any idea how pathetic he is?'

'Reynold!' Derrick warns.

'Penelope... was there any need to call him?' The duke asks; and she can tell he's holding himself back.

'We met in the forest during the hunting competition; and as to why we need to meet...' Penelope looks the Duke in the eye, 'That, Father, is a matter between me and him.'

The Duke is silent and she fears that he might be more furious than both Derrick and Reynold, whose disapproval she can almost feel rolling off in waves, but she needn't worry. He nods almost imperceptibly and then turns to the butler to make preparations for the arrival.

Penelope fights the smile threatening to show on her face. Even then the relief that fills her heart is expansive, as though it will lift her off the ground.

'Well, Princess?' Raymond looks up and glances at her, dark hair falling into grey eyes. 'What did you need my help with?'

'Well.' Penelope chooses her words carefully. 'Your Highness, I need your help with '

'With surviving this accursed game?'

Penelope's head snaps up, staring at him. 'How did you '

Raymond doesn't smile. 'Mistreated by family, intelligent and sharp, always on the lookout as though you expect to be attacked any second, all the characters interested in you. Extraordinarily beautiful, too.'

She feels her cheeks color. 'What does that have to do with anything?'

'Let's talk freely, Princess.' Raymond leans forward. 'You're a transmigrator. You can go back, you know.'

'I can't.' Her hands tremble on the way too lacy tablecloth. 'Not unless I stay alive and find the godforsaken hidden ending. And that's.. it's hard.'

Raymond leans forward, all playfulness gone from the demeanor. 'I'll help you, then. How do you need my help?'

Penelope composes herself, taking a deep breath. 'My, my escort, Eckles, has gone haywire. I don't trust him that much anymore. I never trusted him all that much to begin with... but that's besides the point. I will stay here until Yvonne's arrival. However, after my coming-of-age ceremony.. I would like for you to provide me a place to live in your empire. My family will not be able to do anything, unless they want to risk war against your empire. And I'll say I went by own will, so they won't accuse you of of kidnapping, or something. Of course, they might say you forced or blackmailed me, but they won't be able to take me away. In short, I ask for your protection.'

Raymond is silent, thinking it over, and for a minute she feels he will refuse. Then he looks up and grins. 'That's a plan, then, Princess.'

She gazes at him in shock. 'You'll do it?'

'Of course I will. And tell you what. I'll let you live in the Imperial Palace, since you'll be under direct protection from me, and that'll be better.'

Penelope stares at him, then her face breaks out into the first true smile she's worn in a long, long time. 'Thank you, Your Highness. My goodness...I can't begin to thank you enough!'

Raymond smiles. 'You're very much welcome, Princess.'

As he gets up to leave, he asks, 'Next time I come to meet you, may I kick the eldest brother?'

Startled, she asks, 'Why?'

'It's a request.'

'Of course you may,' She grimly nods, 'and I'll join in.'

Imagine if in Eorka they created a device similar to a camera that was able to take photos. The device is of course quite expensive and powered by mana.

With this in mind, Penelope takes full advantage of it and tasks Cedric with taking pictures of Callisto while he is training, which is a sight to behold.

Cedric gets paid handsomely and carries through with it without remorse.

Penelope now has a collection of Callisto’s pictures while he is shirtless and hot. Those are some of her most prized possessions hidden away from the entire world, only meant for her and her alone.

Callisto does notice at some point that his aide is doing this, and when he finds out about the whole thing he just willingly poses for the camera, he’s absolutely shameless and smug too:

Callisto: oh, so these are for the Princess?

Cedric: yes, so it appears

Callisto: make sure to catch my good side, which is every side

Cedric: respectfully—that’s disgusting.

Eorka Empire Presents:

Trial of Princess Penelope Eckhart...

[viroman]

AU: winter and siyeon are back in time⏳

During one of Judith Regulus' birthday banquets, the emperor is hit by a poisoned arrow from a mercenary. There is no cure, and a day later Callisto dies, taking with him the life of Penelope, who managed to instruct the inhabitants of the palace.

But little Judith, unable to cope with the loss of her parents, accidentally uses a powerful spell on Winter, returning him twenty years ago - to the last day of the festival.

To the very day Yvonne Eckhart went missing.

Winter decides to take a desperate step - he goes to the duchy, confesses to the duke that he is a magician and knows the future, finds Yvonne at the festival, saves her and kills Leila, who was in a vulnerable state.

In gratitude, Berdandi, who at that time was only sixteen years old, asks for only two things - to find a girl with crimson hair in the slums and support the crown prince in the war. The Duke agrees, although he hardly believes it.

Winter spends a lot of time with the Eckharts and helps Penelope get comfortable, teaches her everything and supports her.

Everything goes smoothly until the day the crown prince returns from the war. That evening, everything changes. Penelope became like a different person - a cheerful girl abruptly became withdrawn and confused. Winter takes her to a conversation, from which he learns that another person is now in Penelope's body, because the real Penelope has been dead for a long time. Winter understands everything and offers to help.

“Meet the Crown Prince”

"For what?"

“I think you will get along”

Much to the surprise of the Marquis, Penelope returns with her neck slashed. Now she refuses to even catch his eye, but Winter does not give up and continues to persuade her. And when a letter arrives from the crown prince with an invitation to a hunting competition (Callisto is a crap romantic, it looks more like threats), he tricks her into going there.

Everything develops the same way as in the previous life, but with one exception - there are no attacks by Leila's people. Winter constantly pushes Callisto and Penelope in various situations, preventing the Eckharts and the Empress's relatives from getting into their relationship. Defends her in court on charges of treason (now Derrick does not behave like an asshole and supports Penelope).

Penelope and Yvonne build a great relationship and support each other. Yvonne often plays pranks on her sister when she gets into a "cold war with the Crown Prince", and Penelope teases her when Yvonne fell in love with Winter. Derrick overprotects the sisters and forbids them everything, and Reynold helps them run away on dates to their lovers (although he constantly grumbles) and secretly sends letters (if only his girls were happy). The duke gladly accepts Winter at home, but he swears with Callisto 24/7 and exchanges mutual insults, but supports the prince in the fight for the throne.

Siyeon scores 100% with Callisto, stays in Eorka and finds a quiet life with his family.

this idea has been in the notes for a long time, but I'm too lazy to implement it 🙈
