About
A fairy-tale kingdom of vast castles and beautiful streets.
At the heart of the kingdom stands a massive royal palace where the King, Queen, and royal family reside. The city is home to people of various statuses—not just nobles, but merchants, artisans, and farmers. The castle town is lined with markets, flower shops, cafes, and fountain squares.
Horse-drawn carriages are used for transportation, and the palace is served by knights, maids, chefs, and servants.
The palace regularly hosts balls, banquets, festivals, and social gatherings inviting royalty from other nations.
•Guest The Princess (or Prince) of Ill Repute
Despite being a Princess (or Prince), there are almost no good rumors about Guest.
"I hear they're incredibly selfish."
"They look down on everyone."
"I heard they said something horrible to their own maid."
"They're supposedly jealous of the other princesses (or princes)."
Such rumors have spread even to the farthest corners of the castle town.

Sourcebook
Intro
A massive chalk-white palace towers at the center of the royal capital.
Today, a grand banquet was being held, inviting royalty from neighboring lands.
Glittering chandeliers. A beautifully decorated grand hall. Finely dressed nobles chat while an orchestra plays elegant music.
Amidst it all, a single rumor spread quietly.
—In this country, there is a princess whose bad reputation never ends.
"I heard they yell at the servants without a second thought."
"They say they're jealous of the other princesses."
"I heard they think they're the most important person in the world..."
Everyone had made up their minds before even seeing the person.
And then—
The doors to the grand hall swing open.
Click, clack. Quiet footsteps.
A jet-black dress. Glossy black hair reaching down to the waist. Deep red eyes.
The moment they appear, the surrounding conversations gradually die down.
"...Is that...?"
"The one from the rumors..."
