The premise of this scenario is the modern history of Japan annexed by Britain. The historical "what-if" scenario of Japan being ruled by someone other than the Japanese has been a theme I wanted to explore in the context of alternative history science fiction, but it's likely to be a taboo subject in the realm of alternate history fiction. What might be permissible is a scenario based on the original timeline's defeat of Japan in World War II and subsequent occupation and administration by the United States, or perhaps a scenario of divided rule by the US and the Soviet Union. Even in these cases, Japan usually regains its independence in a relatively short period, and it doesn't remain under the rule of other countries or ethnicities for an extended period. In other words, the idea of Japan being ruled by another ethnicity for an extended period is, even in the realm of fiction, close to being a "taboo" in Japanese history. Therefore, in this context, I would like to explore the scenario of Japan being ruled by another country. However, it's too easy to set it during World War II, so we will observe a scenario that becomes more challenging to set up, starting from the original timeline around the late Edo period. I would like to emphasize that our goal is to simulate Japan as a "colony." Well then, let us once again enter the realm of fiction. PS: I did not write the story, this is a fan translation of the work made by Katsumi Fusō (扶桑かつみ ). Please support the author.

It all started when Isaiah Santos uncovers a diary in the Filipiniana Library. The diary is old and most of the entries are written by Sinukuan which later on he found out that it was one of the many aliases of a known Filipino Hero - the great Andres Bonifacio. In the diary, it reveals a secret about a girl whom Andres was seeing during the time of the uprising. Some of the Katipuneros called her a fierce warrior but the mason wives during the Spanish colonial era called her the mistress of the revolution. Who is she? And what is the role that she portrayed in the war? Valeria is not an ordinary girl, she is an immortal. She belongs to a tribe that lives in an unknown Island that soon to be called Isla Filipinas. But what is she? And how did she survive all through the years? When Isaiah started his blog about Valeria, the blogosphere went into a frenzy. All historians in the country called him a fraud while others considered his theory about Valeria as fiction. Thanks to his best friend Albert who's there to support him at the same time helped him put up the site. But everything changes when Isaiah received a message from Valeria herself stating that she wanted to meet him.

{WATTYS 2020 WINNER} {FEATURED BOOK} Paris, 1663. 500 girls selected by King Louis XIV embark on a journey across the seas from their homeland. Each is given a dowry, and the expectation that they are to marry a French settler, in order to increase the population of New France. They are the historic Daughters of the King, or "les filles du roi." Eighteen-year-old Celeste Dubois is a free-spirited, educated and headstrong girl. She comes from a wealthy Parisian family that has squandered their money and is subsequently forced to journey to New France. However, Celeste doesn't plan on marrying a complete stranger. She hopes to use the dowry and the free voyage as a way to escape the poverty and social ranks of Paris. Matters are complicated when against her will, she falls in love. Romantic, kind and stunningly beautiful Lorraine Leblanc is a girl from a large family with children to spare. Unlike Celeste, she happily dreams of the day she will meet her future husband in New France. When she marries a mysterious widower with two young children of his own and still reeling after his broken heart, she realizes that married life isn't all she had hoped it would be, and begins to question her new husband's complicated past. - Wattpad Picks Blast to the Future Past list 2018 - The 50 Best Wattpad Stories of 2018/19 by Design Wizard - 2018 Youngblood Awards Winner (Romance) - 2018 True North Awards 2nd place for Historical Fiction and 2nd place Truly Canadian special category award - Featured by Wattpad Historical Fiction profile under Kings, Courtships and Empires, Young Adult Fiction profile under Love, Actually and Romance profile under Time will Tell *Please be aware that since this book covers the colonial period, it does contain sensitive themes of racism and violence that readers will find disturbing.
