Like stated on the sypnosis I don't own the original artwork,novel,or comic. So this is only a Fan-fic. However I do hope you enjoy it. This chapter will be shorter than other chapters but overall most chapters will be around 20-25 pages long. Thinking of what will happen next and coming up with the plot takes time. Therefore my updates may be slow but please be patient with me. Some details may be inaccurate since I've only read the comics and I am currently reading the novel. Though I barely meet the requirements with my current physical age I have a mental age older than my physical age,since I am mature. There might be grammar mistakes since I am only a student still. I do hope you correct me If you find grammar mistakes. Okay,now that I've introduced the main points I will have a recap.(spoiler alert!) I will talk about parts of 'The Abandoned Empress' which many may have not read yet. so please only Read this if you are okay with the spoiler or if you already know. I don't want to ruin the story for anyone.
This is the next page(I hope)
...
Now for the recap.
Tia travels back in time 7 years before her misfortune and made critical changes to ensure her own survival. She successfully changed her fate.[I personally think that she was the child of the prophecy from the beginning and that her first life was actually her second after dying and making a great mistake in her 'first life'. Thus she went back in time to before she was born, but without her memories. Vita in order to help her created a fake 'blessed child' that would exist to help vita achieve his goal in making Tia a wise Empress. Vita succeeds because Tia is wiser. Those were my personal thoughts.] please feel free to tell me if you agree or disagree. now,let's continue the recap. Tia successfully changes her fate but unexpectedly many events happen faster. Allen and Sein earn their work positions much faster. And Jieun(whom I think is a shameless homewrecker and b*t**) also appears BEFORE the expected time. From what I've read from comments on the comic and edits, Our queen,no, Our Empress, I mean our Goddess, Aristia Pioneer La Monique, changer of fate and the one who carves one's own fate, was only beheaded because the council decided it. And apparently Ruve only ever loved Tia and just USED Jieun as a STRESS RELIEVER because Ruve thought that Tia didn't reciprocate his feelings while Jieun did like him. But besides this Ruve has an inferiority complex in which he feels stressed after constantly being compared to Tia nd seeing every one love her(his father and mother mainly) while he wasn't loved. Therefore he released his hatred onto her,But because he only loved her,when she was dizzy and almost fainted while pregnant he rushed to help her. I will add on that I recently received knowledge that Ruve released his hatred onto her because of Duke Zena's manipulation. Apparently,taking advantage of Ruve's lack of fatherly love, manipulated Ruve so that he(Duke Zena) could take over the empire,and to acomplish this he poisoned Ruve mentally and physically as well as manipulated him to kill his one true love.After she was beheaded Jieun 'broke' under all the stress of FINALLY doing HER OWN WORK as empress and constantly being compared to Tia who was ONLY A QUEEN before dying but still did a BETTER job than HER. I also recently learned that Jieun was supposed to be a Priestess(this explains why Jieun has the same divine power that priest CONTAIN). Jieun got pregnant again and gave birth to a daughter. Duke Zena killed Ruve,Jieun,and their daughter. He ambushed Ruve in his own palace and as he was dying he was ACTUALLY HAPPY because he thought of tia and regretted his choices,but he thought that if he died he would at least be able to see and be with Tia again.And from what I remember reading he only wanted to keep Tia by his side so he wanted to either have her exiled or confined in a place within his reach. I mean I guess that explains why instead of letting her go and marry someone else like Sein,Allen,or Allen's elder brother (both duke Rass and Verita wanted Tia as a daughter-in-law because she was exeptional and could be seen as a genius of the century, it makes sense, I mean think about it 3 geniuses of the century in different areas being friends, to accomplish this Duke Verita actually constantly talked about Tia and her accomplishments in front of Ruve so that he hated her) through and arranged marriage he called her to be a Queen.
Jieun also traveled to the past and kept her memories as a result she came back as a worse b****. Thankfully Ruve realized his feelings earlier so that Jieun receives what she deserves earlier. Jieun was killed by Duke Zena not long after Ruve was killed. Since she died she also went back in time.(she had a choice to go back in time to when she appeared or back to her modern world but she wanted revenge so she decided to go back to the empire)And because Ruve stopped showing interest in her once he realized his feelings for Tia, Jieun was determined to get revenge on Tia,Ruve,and Duke zena.
•••Other characters•••
Sein(Carsein) developed feelings for tia, as she had changed from her previous life and instead of being labeled as a cold blooded woman she was seen for her real and 'fixed' self(she wasn't broken like before in her past life), he taught her many things about sword fighting and bonded with her over that.
Allen(Allendis) also developed feelings but unlike Sein, Allen also developed an obsession for Tia. Allen initially only wanted to be with tia because he thought his parents would finally love him if he married the one that they wanted to be their daughter-in-law (through their eldest and favored son). However he found that they had some similarities and that they really understood each other,so he actually developed feelings for her.
Jieun. Ugh. Honestly some sympathize with her and defend her to an extent. But I'm not them and I didn't want to write this part on her, but I have to because of the plot and her role. Let me get straight to the point, Jieun loves Ruve and hates Tia for 'stealing' her man/husband/lover( he falls into these categories in Jieun's case). And thus blames Tia for HER OWN bad Karma. Due to this she came back as a worse bit** than before. Jieun also came determined to ruin and end our Tia.
The high Priest (honestly I don't remember his name or if they mentioned it so please do tell me his name if you know). He will be a character that will be present,specially when dealing with Jieun. He is one of Tia's main and most loyal supporters in the original comic and novel.And he will continue to be Tia's loyal and main supporter. As not much is known about him I will state other facts that I know about him and his relationship with Tia. The high priest knows that Tia hears Vita's voice. [If my previous thoughts are correct than he should know at least some of Vita's plan. And thus claimed both to be the 'lady of the prophecy' to give hope to Jieun so that Jieun ends herself.Those are my personal thoughts.]I may be wrong,when it comes to the original comic that is,but not in this Fanfiction,afterall I'm the one writing the Fan-fic. The high priest knows something we don't and thus always does his best to help Tia. He also seems to show favor to Tia.
Marquis Keiran Monique.(I think his first name is Keiran,I'm not 100% sure). He is Tia's father and one of the few people that FULLY know her 'secret'(that she traveled back in time after being beheaded). He also cares about her and loves her so much that he decided to make her his heir in order to help her avoid marrying the crown prince,aka Ruve. He also went as far as letting her use 'the vow' in order to help her avoid her 'fate'.
Duke Rass
Father of Carsein and Kaysein. He is part of the imperial faction and the husband of The Emperor's sister. He is in love with his wife and would threaten his own son for not respecting his wife(duchess Rass). When rumours spread about Tia and Sein he wasn't upset for two main reasons
1. he knew that his son and tia weren't actually involved like the rumors said and that they were only friends(I hate the phrase because Adrien uses it TOO much,anyway I will have to use it a couple of times) and also teacher and student ( Sein taught Tia swordsmanship, when Allen left, and helped her improve).
2.He actually ALSO wanted Tia as his DAUGHTER-IN-LAW.
We also know that he is friends with Tia's dad, Allen's dad,and Ruve's dad. He dated his wife before marrying her. He didn't have an arranged marriage like people think. Despite his Behavior towards his children he loves them both very much.
Duke Verita
'He is a cold blooded duke who is ready to cut ties with even his own family if it will benifit him' That is what Allen thinks of his own father. And though most of it is true,we don't know much about him. However we do know that he came up with a scheme to destroy the engagement between Tia and Ruve in order to make her his daughter-in-law. We also know that he came up with a scheme to get the arranged marriage between him and his wife, so he married for love even though it was an arranged marriage.(officially).
Vita
We don't know much about Vita. But we do know that vita is God. She(I feel like Vita is a female) is the creator of all.
Emperor(Ruve's Dad)
Again not much is know,but what is known is that he is Duchess's Rass brother. He loved Ruve but scolded him and didn't show Ruve fatherly love or affection in order to make him stronger and a good ruler. However he did openly adore Tia. He helped Tia's parents marry in exchange for loyalty.
Tia( Aristia Pioneer La Monique)
We know that she tried to avoid her fate at all cost. She became friends with Sein and Allen without realizing it. Tried to dump Ruve by finding him a new fiance. Friendzoned Allen and almost Sein. Loves her family. Is warry of Jieun. Doesn't hate Jieun even after all she(Jieun) did to her(Tia). Is duke Zena's Grand-niece. She is mature and smart.
Ruve
He is in love with Tia. He dislikes Jieun. (He even rejected her indirectly). Only wants Tia. Has surpassed his inferiority complex with the help of his right hand man. (The blond guy with green eyes,that looks like cito from Emperor's Daughter.) He tries to help Tia (even if he gets in to trouble). He isn't the Empress's prior son. Tia and him both had the blood of a 'commoner'.( different ancestors though, Ruve's mom was a commoner and Tia's maternal grandfather was a commoner.)
...
Now what to expect. Jieun's karma and her revenge as well and more. Ruve's enlightenment,development, etc. Allen,Sein,and Ruve's fight for Tia. New characters. Love Triangles. I will also write based on different POV's (Ruve's,Sein's,Jieun's,etc.),and cross overs.
I decided to start from the summer palace scene where Marquis Monique informs the Emperor of Jieun's arrival.
Honestly,
