For the sake of discussion, I wonder what circumstances can lead to a same-sex arranged marriage in that universe.
I mean, she's supposedly from a rich family, with servants and all, she's been sheltered, she's loved. But... she's given in marriage at an early age to a woman.
Meaning they give up/don't want children from her.
Maybe it's a culture that doesn't put such an emphasis on bloodlines and heredity?
Well, unless science babies or polygamy, it effectively bars the MC from having children of her own legally.
Maybe that family doesn't need her to have children, but by marrying her "forcefully" to a woman, they ensure there will be no legal children.
So I hope they have some way to be biological mothers without the intervention of males in that universe. They don't have to, but it's cruel to take the choice away from them.
