  • Roslin: Oh, Signy! Why are you still in bed?
  • Roslin: Have you forgotten the King wants to see you today?



  • You: Mmm... Ms. Roslin, why are you holding a tray...
  • You: Something smells delicious...
  • You: Oh no! It's late morning!
  • I bolt up in bed, and Ms. Roslin pulls the curtains open. Bright sunlight floods into the room. I think I've already missed breakfast.
  • Roslin: I know the King dotes on you, and pampers you a lot...
  • Roslin: But you were informed last night that the King wants to discuss something important with you, and you should have taken that to heart.
  • You: I know. I'm sorry, Ms. Roslin. I went to bed too late last night...
  • Last night's conversation topic gave me such a shock that, for the first time ever, I had difficulty sleeping.
  • You: I'll change right away.
  • Roslin: Eat your breakfast first. The King instructed me to make sure you to eat.
  • You: Never mind that. Since Father took the trouble to summon me to the study, the ministers are probably there as well, and I shouldn't arrive too late.



  • I make myself presentable as quickly as I can, and rush to the study. Only Father and the Chief Minister are there.
  • You: I'm sorry I'm late.
  • Edward XII: You're excused, dear daughter.
  • Edward XII: My goodness! Did you sleep at all last night? Look at your terrible eye bags...
  • Chief Minister: ...
  • You: I'm fine, Father. Didn't you say you wanted to discuss something important?
  • Edward XII: Oh, my dear, that's not important. You need ample rest. A young girl like you shouldn't look so haggard.
  • Chief Minister: ...
  • Chief Minister: Your Highness, we need to discuss your coming-of-age ceremony---
  • Chief Minister: You might already know this, but your ceremony needs to be brought forward.
  • You: It's a little sudden...
  • Chief Minister: My apologies, your Highness. We made the decision not long ago, and the preparations are already under way.
  • Chief Minister: The invites have been sent out, and the princes and nobles of the neighboring kingdoms will be attending.
  • Chief Minister: So you shall have to prepare as well.
  • You: Do I need to go welcome them?
  • Chief Minister: Indeed, Your Highness. They are here for your sake, after all.
  • Edward XII: What are you saying? Why does my daughter have to go welcome these people?
  • Chief Minister: They are princes and noblemen, and we should observe protocol.
  • Edward XII: They come of their own free will, so they should be trying to please my daughter!
  • Chief Minister: ...
  • The Chief Minister sighs once more, and Father frowns at him, annoyed. I can already predict what's going to happen next.
  • Edward XII: What's with the sighing? Are you saying I'm wrong?
  • Edward XII: Is my daughter not the most precious princess in the world?
  • Chief Minister: Indeed, but we should follow protocol.
  • Chief Minister: Your Majesty, Princess Signy is our future Queen, and ceremonial protocol will be a frequent part of her life.
  • Chief Minister: It would be advisable to get Her Highness used to all the procedures.
  • Edward XII: The Queen shouldn't have to attend to these trivial matters herself. Why can't you go welcome the guests?
  • Chief Minister: ...Beyond protocol, one of them will be the Princess' future husband.
  • Chief Minister: If the Princess gets more time to interact with them, she might be able to pick a husband that will suit her tastes.
  • Edward XII: Boohoohoo--
  • Edward XII: The Queen, my dear wife, passed away too soon. I've struggled so hard to bring up my precious Signy on my own.
  • Edward XII: My daughter is not yet of age, and my days as a Father are numbered...
  • Edward XII: She's about to get married, boohoohoo---
  • The stocky King pulls out a handkerchief and dabs sorrowfully at his eyes. It is a heart wrenching sight... or would have been if he weren't faking.
  • Edward XII: This is too upsetting. I believe you understand how I feel.
  • Edward XII: Let's just chase all these princes away. Call off the engagement.
  • Chief Minister: You...! You old fool! You're the same as ever!
  • The Chief Minister is so frustrated that he has forgotten his manners.
  • Chief Minister: You've wrecked your health with all that ridiculous food, and you're even weaker than before.
  • Chief Minister: You should take this chance to prepare the Princess for her coming-of-age ceremony!
  • Chief Minister: How do you expect the Princess to take over the kingdom when you die?
  • Edward XII: I didn't say I wouldn't prepare her. I just don't want her to get married so soon!
  • Edward XII: I don't know why I'm even talking to you about these things. You don't have a daughter of your own.
  • Chief Minister: The Princess has to get married!
  • Chief Minister: And while you still have power and influence, you should select a suitable husband for her!
  • Chief Minister: If you truly love the Princess, then don't fool around!
  • Edward XII: Fool around? You stubborn old baldy! Are you scolding me?
  • Chief Minister: How would I dare scold you, Your Majesty? I am only stating the truth!
  • Chief Minister: Or perhaps Your Majesty has already lost the ability to perceive reality?
  • Edward XII: You are clearly mocking me! I'll strip your post!
  • Chief Minister: Then please write a letter to dismiss me, Your Majesty. But until then, I can still advise you!
  • Edward XII: You--
  • Father and his Chief Minister are always fighting. They squabble once every few days or so.
  • I'm numb to it now. Their bond has been rock solid for many, many years.
  • But now they're arguing over me, and I should probably stop them...
  • If I don't, I don't know how long this argument will last. What childish old men they are!
  • You: (Sigh...)
  • You: Excuse me!
  • You: Father, Uncle Arthur... since this concerns me, why don't you ask my opinion?
  • Edward XII: Well, my dear, what do you think?
  • Chief Minister: You are right, Your Highness. We shouldn't neglect your opinion in the matter.
  • Edward XII: Of course!
  • They throw each other annoyed glances and then look at me.
  • You: ...


Welcome the guests, but delay the engagement.

  • You: As a Princess, and as the heir--
  • You: I should welcome the guests, because we should follow protocol.
  • Edward XII: Oh, you are such a responsible Princess, my dear. I'm so proud of you!
  • Chief Minister: Your Highness sees the big picture.
  • Edward XII: Well, my daughter is no ordinary Princess.
  • Chief Minister: ...
  • You: But I don't feel like getting engaged so soon.
  • You: I should prepare myself for the role of Crown Princess, but I'm unwilling to get married for the sake of the kingdom.
  • Chief Minister: Well...


Don't welcome the guests, but consider engagement.

  • You: I can consider getting engaged, but I don't feel like welcoming the guests.
  • You: The princes and noblemen are all distinguished guests, and I don't wish to welcome them with the mentality of picking one of them like I'm shopping for a gift.
  • You: I'm not really prepared...
  • Edward XII: I totally understand, my dear daughter.
  • Chief Minister: They will arrive several days ahead of the ceremony.
  • Chief Minister: If your Highness does not wish to welcome them, there is still ample time to interact with them.


Willing to do both.

  • You: Ms. Roslin has mentioned this all to me.
  • You: And I understand that as Princess, I have to shoulder certain responsibilities.
  • You: So please don't argue anymore, Father, Uncle Arthur... I will learn to welcome our guests.
  • You: And I will consider the engagement very carefully.
  • Edward XII: Oh, my poor daughter. You are truly precious.
  • Chief Minister: The Princess has grown up.


  • After listening to me, Father and the Chief Minister are silent for a moment.
  • They look at each other as though they hadn't been fighting just a while ago.
  • You: Father?
  • You: Uncle Arthur?
  • Edward XII: Yes, dear?
  • You: Do you have anything else to say to me?
  • Edward XII: Oh yes, the Chief Minister has something to tell you.
  • Chief Minister: Huh, me?
  • Edward XII: Yes, you!
  • Edward XII: Hurry up and say it! My dear daughter needs to go back to her quarters to rest!
  • Chief Minister: ...Your Highness, I know you're trying your best to understand the King's position.
  • Chief Minister: And we should tell you the truth. The princes and the noblemen will arrive in just a few days.
  • Chief Minister: You can decide whether or not you want to welcome them, but--
  • Chief Minister: On the night of your coming-of-age ceremony, you must select one as your marriage partner.
  • You: So you've already decided?
  • Father and the Chief Minister look away, and the room is quiet.
  • I do sense Father's reluctance, and I also understand Uncle Arthur's worries.
  • But I'm still upset to hear this ultimatum.
  • You: I understand. I shall take my leave now.
  • Edward XII: Signy...



  • The sweet scent of garden flowers greets me as I exit the study.
  • The flowers are in full bloom today, but they were merely tiny buds just two days ago.
  • I guess the world does change when you're not looking...
