First meetings always bring first impressions. I had no choice but to live for first impressions. You see- I'm a noble woman born into a world of riches, luxury, and lies. I hated my life, I hated what I was born into, and what made me more sickened of my life was that I hated my family as well. My father and mother never cared for me; I was just an heir, just the firstborn daughter to be wed off to a man with even more money, and my little brother's mind had been poisoned by their lies. I hated it so much that thinking about it made my stomach churn. All the nobles cared about their status, their money, and themselves. If I was just a normal peasant girl they wouldn't spare me a glance. They think the world outside nobility is just filth… That was what I hated the most. I was born into a family that thought that way. I hated the dresses I wore, I hated the manners I was forced to have, and I loathed the fact that they were changing me into something I never wanted to be. I was never free, I was always caged.
They never cared about me. They didn't even know that I stole a zoan devil fruit. That was how invisible I felt, but it didn't matter, I was going to run away. Run away from the arranged marriage I never wanted, the life I loathed, and the place I never wanted to be born in. I will find that opportunity and take it. Never will I live in a place that is filled with ill intent. I want to be free from this cage; I want to be free from this horrible place. The place of nobility is horrible, please… take me out of this horrible place…. Someone help me.
I beg of you, save me! Please help me!
"Mommy, I want a slave for my birthday!" said a little noble boy.
I want to be free…
"Of course dear, we'll go to a slave auction soon enough," said the mother.
Everyone here makes me sick, it's constricting me. The air is so heavy, everyone her is crazy.
"Peasants are pests; all they're good for is work and slavery."
Take me out of this cage please!
Suddenly, I heard large explosions and battle cries outside the city walls. Everyone in the walls pain no heed to it. But I was worried for the peasants. I looked over to my mother and father, but they too did not care in the slightest. I was furious, "Mother, Father," I started, "The walls outside- the people outside might be in trouble," I stated. But I knew that they never cared, and it sickened me as I heard painful screams of agony.
"Listen good Rue, they are just peasants. They are nothing compared to us, they mean nothing, they are just common trash, filth, one less peasant is one less filth in the world," I clenched my fists. My name is Rue Harmonia, a noble daughter of the Harmonia family…
