"A Fathers Tragic Descent into Madness After the Death of his Beloved Wife" by Tọa Cao Đài

My mother, a strong and determined woman, worked tirelessly to support my fathers education and success at the Imperial Academy. However, his ambition and newfound power consumed him, and he made a devastating decision to... end his engagement to the princess through malicious murder.

The Princess, who was true to her heart, was deeply unhappy with this dishonest act. To make matters worse, my mother was then publicly humiliated by someone who used my fathers crime as an excuse.

Months later, in a terrible twist of fate, the Princess was married to my father. This union was the beginning of her own unhappiness, as my fathers shocking descent into madness and paranoia took its tragic toll on all who knew him.
