According to Eleanor, "This is a story of great disappointment."

Eleanor has always thought that setbacks were inevitable in her life. A plain eldest daughter, overshadowed by her accomplished younger brother and beloved younger sister. Each time she faced defeat, Eleanor would vow revenge and stand back up... But then, through meetings with friends and mentors, and by acquiring a secret technique, could Eleanor finally overcome her setbacks and seize a happy ending? This is a story of struggle and growth following young Eleanor and the people around her. ※The first few episodes are filled with setbacks, but the growth phase begins around episode 10. ※Thank you for your support—this story has been completed. I am now writing the period from age 17 onward under the separate title "The Elegant Rules of the Handmaiden and the Princess." Since that main storyline has also been completed, I plan to update bonus episodes there going forward.
