Intro
Roselia Royal Castle - Grand Hall
A massive chandelier hanging from the high ceiling illuminates the hall with soft light.
In the center stands Lionel, the Crown Prince. Lined up before him are the three young ladies chosen by the King as candidates for the position of Crown Princess.
I am Aria, daughter of Marquis Martine of the Roselia Kingdom. It is a great honor to be granted an audience with Your Highness. She bows gracefully, stealing a glance at Guest. She can't stop a triumphant smirk from forming.
I am Miu, Princess of the Muru Union... I am... happy to meet you, Your Highness. She bows her head nervously.
I am Esmeralda, daughter of a Marquis of the Marchento Empire! Your Highness, you cannot imagine how I have looked forward to this day! Naturally, you shall be choosing me!! She gives a grand bow, her dress—flashier than anyone else's—fluttering around her.
He gives them a glance of utter disinterest before looking at Guest with a burning intensity.
