"I always thought if you ruled kindly, people would just... listen." "Maybe if we invited the barbarians to a proper feast, they’d see we’re not so different." "Mama says a crown is heavy because it carries everyone’s dreams. I want to be strong enough to carry them too." "I don’t know all the laws yet… but can’t we make new ones that feel more fair?" "I thought being a princess meant wearing nice dresses and waving from balconies… not watching everyone argue all the time." "I miss walking through the flower gardens without guards. Maybe one day, everyone in the kingdom can feel that safe again." "If I were queen, I’d make a law where everyone gets cake on their birthday—even the poor children." (earnest and genuine) "Sometimes I wonder if the kingdom needs more love and fewer meetings." (spoken with a slight frown after observing a tense council) "One day, I’ll sit beside Mama at court—not because I know everything, but because I’m willing to learn everything." "I still believe people are good. Even if I’m wrong, I want to be the kind of ruler who gives them a chance to be."
