 The Land of Sacrifice and the Dangerous Princess






The Land of Stones was one such location.

This nation, which is bordered by the sea on all sides, is frequently struck by severe storms. As a result, all the structures—castles as well as individual residences—were fashioned of stone. When it was wet in the rain, this stone, which is available from a national quarry, began to drip a white liquid. It was weak but deadly; it killed fish in the water and soaked into the ground, causing it to wither.

However, the red gemstone was occasionally mingled in with the stone, which is why this nation has endured to this day. This jewel was really lovely and cost a lot of money to sell to other nations. Because of this, this nation's economy was based on trade, and its citizens enjoyed comfortable lives.

A princess with red eyes was born one day.

Red eyes were thought to be bad luck in this country. Red Eyes faces harsh discrimination because he stole the color from the gems and is therefore a sinner.


Additionally, they are sacrificed beside the mining operation as a means of repressing any negative effects on the nation by being thrown under the cliff.There is a sizable crater at the base of the cliff that is so deep that it is impossible to see the bottom.

From inside the royal family emerged a person with red eyes. Since her birth, fewer and fewer gems are being extracted. She was reared quietly in prison and was known as the Sinky Princess. She was hated by both her family and her people.

After all, the princess was to blame for their inability to obtain the gems.

Did you notice those horrifyingly stunning eyes? How many gem hues did she have at birth?


She should swiftly offer herself as a sacrifice so that the diamonds might once again be colored.

The princess was exposed to this disrespect as a child. She was able to live despite her circumstances because of the boy who took care of her.

He proceeded to treat the princess like a friend since he was not terrified of her.

The villainous princess had no name. Since she already knew who the person with the red eyes was.

She was named by the boy.


"Garnet will be your bame.


"Garnet...? Nicely done. I enjoy it. How should I call you?


Spinel here. I got this from my mother.


Spinel had brilliant blue eyes. Although Garnet had never seen the sky, she believed it to be the same shade of blue as his.

My mother likewise had stunning garnet-colored crimson eyes.


Last year, Spinel's mother was sacrificed and entered the Land of Sacrifice. He took care of her because of the stigma associated with the fact that she was born with red eyes.

Spinel acknowledges her menacing gaze and treats her like a person. Garnet quickly began to fall in love with him.

Since then, a number of years have passed, and Garnet has developed into a stunning woman. Garnet was uncomfortable and disappointed with Spinel's growing estrangement as she grew older.

When Spinel informed Garnet that he could no longer visit this place, Garnet was horrified.


"No! How come, Spinel? Are you at last tired of me?


"No, the reverse is true. Please pardon me.

Through the opening in the iron grate, Garnet was able to finally grip Spinel's shirt hem as he prepared to leave.


"Please, Spinel, I will never survive without you.

After turning to face Garnet and gently removing her hand, Spinel fled.

Garnet sobbed as she witnessed Spinel's back disappearing.

Spinel returned with the prison's keys a short while later.


"I'll be honest with you. You'll be thrown into the land of sacrifice tomorrow night. I can no longer take it. We should run away together.

Spinel went to the detention cell and opened the door for Garnet.

Garnet carefully got to his feet before leaping over his chest.


*

The sinister princess and her attendant fled.

The country as a whole was feverishly looking for them while the port was shut and the mountains were divided.

When they were ultimately discovered, the two were split up.

Garnet begged in the king's presence.


"I have no problem offering myself as a sacrifice. But kindly assist Spinel. Only I could have tempted him.

That was the first time Garnet had ever seen her father's face. The king, who had a compassionate expression on his face, sighed and stroked his well-groomed beard.


"Very good. Your father is me. Why don't I fulfill at least one of my daughter's wishes? We won't touch that spinel in the future.


...Father. I'm grateful.


Garnet sobbed passionately and cried a lot at the king's mercy.




*


The wind coming up from the bottom of the cliff fluttered the hem of her garnet dress under the gloomy sky.


Garnet walked to the cliff's edge after being prodded by the knights. She lacked both her desire for life and her fear of death.



Spinel, kindly. Become content

She gave a sweet glance back. She bowed once again after spotting her father nearby.



"Father. I'm incredibly grateful for Spinel. I can play a part.



The monarch replied, "Ah," and grinned softly. The nearby knights also started laughing. The men's laughter echoed uncannily in the valley's depths.


If it is that man, he will be waiting for you beneath the cliff, she said.




"……?"




The day I caught him, I tossed him into the Land of Sacrifices.


The king's remarks caused Garnet's head to go white.


"Why?! You promised to fulfill my dream, right?



"I told you because of this. I'm not going to become involved anymore. So from this point on, there is nothing I can do about the corpse beneath the cliff. You two are in love, right? Wouldn't it be lovely to be with you both? Your marriage will make my father happy, I'm sure. Now go off quickly.


Garnet lost control. Death is not a threat to me. She had no problem performing a cliff jump. She resisted with all of her strength since she only wanted to exact revenge on her evil father. However, it made no difference since those knights simply threw her body over the edge.

Cheers could be heard coming from the cliff's top as her body was thrown into the air. Garnet chuckled as she saw the sky, which was vanishing more and more.




The spinel. I'll arrive


She never did, however, touch the earth. Instead, her body repeatedly bounced into the air, and after doing so roughly three times, she became caught in a web and merely stared up at the sky.

I'm confused and in shock because of what's happening.




"garnet!!"


To her, a voice cried out.

Garnet noticed Spinel underneath the net when she turned her head away from the voice.

Spinel scaled the net and dashed over to her, giving her a strong embrace.


Spinel, oh. This is paradise.

Spinel gripped Garnet by the shoulder and grinned when she attempted to hug him back.


"It's not a paradise. The world is still here. Garnet."  *

Underneath the rocks, stagnant water and acid soil formerly flowed. The poison of this soil was absorbed by the stones of this land over a period of many months. In the procedure, red crystals occasionally created.

Fertile land and a river with gorgeous, pure water continued to flow at the base of the cliff, which had totally taken on a magnificent appearance.


Under such a cliff one day. Red-eyed person collapsed to the ground. It was spoken numerous times. There was something among the falling people that kept them alive.

He created nets out of plants while watching for the next person to fall. Repeating that, a small community of individuals with red eyes grew beneath the cliff.




*



"That is how the area beneath the cliff was formed. The concept of a "land of sacrifice" didn't exist, Garnet. My mum was likewise a resident of this nation.


How is your mum doing?


Oh, I'll shortly introduce you. I would then like you to be my wife.


"Of course!"

Garnet gave Spinel her tightest hug possible.

They laughed loudly as they tumbled around on the net.

When I looked up at the sky, the clouds had parted, and the sun was now subtly pouring down the rock. Garnet has never before seen a blue sky. She was pleased that it was still the same shade of blue as Spinel's eyes.

Under the cliff, in a remote area, Garnet and Spinel were married. Nobody referred to her as the Sinky Princess since she was blessed by everyone.

They established a lovely family and included Spinel's mother in their living arrangements.

Strangely, red-eyed individuals have ceased traveling to the country below the cliff ever since the day the garnet fell.*

*


One day, an adventuresome descendant of theirs began climbing a cliff. He persevered despite numerous failures, and when he reached the top of the cliff, all that was left were decaying stones.

They have no way of knowing, descendants. that there used to be a nation perched on a cliff.

And the gem mining industry helped that nation grow.

A nation that has lost the respect of its trading partners and has a finite supply of gems has perished.

They are unaware that the venom beneath the cliffs was once sucked up by the stones rolling in this flower-filled field.


It will take some time before these red-eyed people turn the land that has turned into rich soil after the poison has been flushed out into a lovely and prosperous nation.
