"The real Gaia is a noble girl. The daughter of a count, and someone who was destined to marry a very rich imperial prince. However, I had an obsession... I was obsessed with taking care of others. Whether those others were plants, animals, or people... They were all things I couldn't avoid," Gaia began, then lowered her gaze.
"The first thing I took care of was a strawberry bush in my back garden. It belonged to one of the maids who took care of me. One day, that maid had to leave, since she had gotten pregnant. I promised that I would take care of her strawberry bush, so I did."
"However, I very quickly realized I wasn't that good at taking care of things... A strawberry bush was perhaps the easiest thing to take care of, and yet, because of my interference, it had wilted within just a few weeks. Honestly, I thought I was just an idiot, so I read a few books, but then I realized I might be cursed instead."
