Description
Ezette, the eighth prince of the Empire who was thought to have died, returned alive. His return which intertwined with the Crown Prince’s su*cide left the Empire in turmoil. Meanwhile, Diarin, a doll-like and immature woman with unwitting love who is known as a beautiful marionette, moves as the Duke instructed. She heads to Ezette at the Duke’s order, which is to carry on their engagement. The following words she said were different from what she thought she’d say. “I’ll break our engagement.” ~*~ Diarin leaned towards Ezette to make it look as natural as possible. “I’ll break our engagement.” The knight immediately replied, ‘what?’ and was about to ask more. But Ezette, on the other hand, had an odd expression. Thanks to her keen awareness, Diarin was able to catch his expression. Ezette never took his eyes off her. Ezette asked, “Is that what Duke Conkel wants?” The sentence was spoken in a quiet voice, much like Diarin’s. No one, except the knight, could hear the conversation. “No way. Do you really think the Duke would let you go? If he could, the Duke would’ve tied your legs together with a rope.” “Then, why?” Diarin said in a small voice as if ice would break if she spoke any louder. “It’s what I want.”

My Thoughts on I Once Broke An Oath
I Once Broke An Oath certainly grabbed my attention, and I've been diving into the early chapters with a good amount of curiosity. The premise is intriguing, and while it's still early days in the translation, I already have some thoughts on where this story might be heading.
First Impressions
The initial setup is quite detailed, throwing you into a world brimming with political intrigue and personal drama. We're introduced to Diarin, our female lead, who's dealing with a pretty awful family situation and a pre-arranged engagement that's clearly not to her liking. The story hints at some significant events that occurred during a two-year period when the male lead was absent, and that mystery definitely adds to the pull.
What Works Well
Diarin is shaping up to be a compelling protagonist. She's intelligent and resourceful, and I'm enjoying watching her navigate the challenges thrown her way. The dynamic between her and the male lead is also interesting, especially the initial agreement to discuss dissolving their engagement. It's a refreshing change from the usual tropes, and I'm eager to see how their relationship develops. The writing and translation seem solid for the most part, making it easy to get lost in the story. I found the narrative flow quite smooth, drawing me in and making me want to know more.
Areas of Concern
While the detailed background is appreciated, the initial chapters do feel a bit information-heavy. It took me a little while to fully grasp all the nuances of the world and the characters' relationships. I'm also still trying to figure out how the romance genre fits into the picture, but I'm willing to give it time to unfold.
Final Verdict
Overall, I Once Broke An Oath has a lot of potential. The unique premise, intriguing characters, and well-executed writing make it a worthwhile read. While there are a few minor pacing issues early on, I'm optimistic that the story will continue to develop in exciting ways. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing where Diarin's journey takes her. I would recommend this novel to anyone looking for a unique fantasy story with a strong female lead.
