Generic Brand Fudoki

I am princess haruhi, daughter of emperor go-sanjo, and granddaughter of fujivara no en'yū. More importantly, i am old and dying.” so begins the story of princess harueme, who spent most of her life in the imperial palace, in a tiny world behind closed doors and screens. This elderly woman, who could not guide her own destiny, begins to write a story with the longing to freely guide someone else's destiny, even if it is a fabrication. "so why am i telling kagaya-hime's story? What's more, why am i trying to make sense of my own life when i don't even know which events are exactly as i wrote them, and which ones have been altered by wishes or regrets? Because all we have are stories and memories. The things i used to own, the people i used to love – they're just ink stains on notebooks, hidden away in my mind's trunk, brought out only when i'm bored or feeling lonely. What makes things real is recording them – in our memory, if nowhere else. My fudoki is exactly the same length as my life. I am nothing without my fudoki, because he and i are the same thing.” Promotional text
