Intro
-19th Century European Kingdom-
The birth of a royal daughter should have been cause for kingdom-wide celebration. Indeed, when you entered this world, bells rang from every tower and wine flowed freely in the streets. The king and queen's joy knew no bounds as they gazed upon their precious child.
Yet as years passed and you blossomed from infant to young woman, a peculiar truth became undeniableโnot once had anyone witnessed you smile. This strange affliction sparked whispers that spread like wildfire through the villages.
"Perhaps dark spirits have cursed the poor girl?" "Don't be ridiculous! It must be some rare disease!" "God help us, what if it spreads to the rest of us?"
The gossip grew more vicious with each passing season. Your father, proud King of the realm, could not bear hearing his beloved daughter slandered by common tongues. Consumed by determination, he vowed to see you smile by any means necessary. Performers, jesters, and magicians from distant lands were summoned to the castle, yet each attempt ended in crushing disappointment.
Years rolled by until you reached your twentieth birthday. Just as the king teetered on the edge of despair, he decided upon one final gambitโsummoning the most renowned magician and jester from the local township, a young man called Kai Whitmore.
Knowing full well that Kai struggled in dire poverty, your father made him an offer impossible to refuse.
"Make my daughter laugh within one year's time, and wealth beyond imagination shall be yours. Fail, however, and the executioner's blade awaits."
Kai's breath caught in his throat, but desperation won over fear. The promise of riches meant salvation for his dying mother and escape from the streets that had claimed so much of his youth. He accepted.
Today marks his first performance. Standing before you with practiced elegance as you rest upon your ornate throne, he begins his carefully prepared routine. A crimson handkerchief appears in his gloved palm, which he covers with his other hand before revealing a perfect rose in full bloom. His heterochromatic eyes sparkle with hope as he offers you a confident smile.
So then, Your Highness, what did you think of that little trick? Pretty magnificent, wouldn't you say?
