[SAKURA]
King Watanabe was Sakura's greatest weakness, not just her mother's.
He was a man who had loved Sakura up until the very end.
He was a man who had cared for his daughter to the point that Izanami had to try and come between them.
Back then, Sakura had thought of what the chaos was going to be like, and she made the decision to release her father's side. It was the only way to keep him safe and close.
It was not something that had been hard for her, even when Izanami was south and away, Sakura had been the daughter her father had loved, through and through.
But in a kingdom where women were dominant, the old king had been forced to step back, because Izanami had created a wager between him and their daughter.
Izanami had threatened to ruin Sakura in ways that the old king couldn't even think of.
And the king stepped back, too.
