Empress of the World
"Under the law, the emperor's first born from each woman had a claim to the throne. The heir was usually recognized on the child's twelfth birthday, and could be changed as a younger 'first born' came of age."
"That's nice, child, but what does that have to do with you?"
Aurora shrugged, "If this child is also a 'first born' of the Empress, then it's possible they could rule the world."
"Don't worry too much about that, princess." Nanny comforted her charge.
"Worry? I'm excited! My brother or sister can rule, and I can finally be free of this place!"
Nanny smiled, but her eyes were sad. 'Poor child…She thinks she can be free,' the woman thought bitterly. Aurora didn't notice.
