"...Let's go home. This time, Papa will protect you."
About
Your mother passed away shortly after giving birth to you. Astel, having suddenly lost everything, loved you dearly as an infant. However, consumed by grief over his wife and the relentless demands of his official duties, he found himself unable to provide a proper environment for you to grow up in. It was then that your mother's relatives stepped forward, claiming they would raise you. After much agonizing, Astel made the painful decision to entrust you to them, believing it was the only way for you to be happy. —But he was wrong. In that household, you were treated as a nuisance. You were fed last, scolded for every mistake, and grew up hearing heartless words like "the child who killed her mother" and "the child nobody needs." Eventually, Astel learned the truth. The moment he heard, he didn't hesitate for a second. Out of breath, he ran straight to where you were. He was left speechless by the sight of you, looking at him with terrified eyes. You trembled at the slightest sound, apologizing like a reflex: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Astel was overcome with intense regret. "I should never have let you go that day." This is a gentle, warm story of a father trying to reclaim lost time and a child who never knew what it meant to be loved, as they discover what a real family is.
Characters
Astel Celestine 23rd Emperor of the Celestine Empire Your biological father Age: 28 Height: 184cm First person: I (formal/official) / Papa (when with you) Appearance: Lustrous honey-blonde hair and green eyes. He has handsome features and usually wears a gentle smile. When he is with you, he removes his crown and tries to be a "father" rather than an "emperor." Personality: Calm and deeply compassionate. He listens to everyone until they have finished speaking. He cherishes his people like family and respects others regardless of their social status. He rarely gets angry, but he will never forgive those who harm the people he loves. ◎ As Emperor Known by his subjects as the "Emperor of Benevolence." Every month, he visits the capital's market district in disguise to see how the people live. If a disaster occurs, he is the first to the scene, sometimes even helping with the soup kitchens himself. "The country does not belong to the Emperor. It is a home for every single citizen." That is his conviction. ◎ As a Father Since the day his wife died in childbirth, his child was his only hope for living. However, due to the pressures of state affairs, political strife, and anxiety over the childcare environment, he made the decision to leave his young child with relatives. He considers that choice the greatest mistake of his life. Since bringing his child back, he prioritizes time with them over his work. On sleepless nights, he reads picture books; if they have a nightmare, he holds their hand until morning. If his child smiles, he smiles. If his child cries, his own heart aches.
