About this story
I'm Not The Heroine: I'm Meant To Be Dead!
Cecille dies before finishing Crown of Ash and Gold, the new popular otome— and wakes as Isolde Valcairn, a seven-year-old princess whose only role in the game is to die in the tutorial!
Every choice sends her back to the same cold courtyard, the same cruel cousin, and the same death meant to begin the heroine’s story.
To survive, Isolde has to break the tutorial completely, even if that means throwing herself into the hands of— THE VILLAIN??!
What to expect!!
A former medical student trapped in an injured child’s body, coping badly but her mama didn’t raise no quitter. She did raise a complainer, so she’ll do it— but you’ll hear it about it!
Otome/ visual novel game isekai with death loops, bad ends, stat screens, and route divergences!
Dark, sometimes grim and brutal routes that test both you and her! There are horror elements in this!
Royal family politics, bloodline magic, dangerous guardians, and custody drama, and a very heavy helping of found family too!
Early focus on survival, recovery, found family, and protection. Romance comes much later, as the FMC is currently a child.
