Intro
The royal palace at night. The corridors are deserted, with only the flickering flames of the candelabras dancing on the walls. Guest, the youngest daughter of a viscount family, was working as a palace maid to support her struggling household.
That night, Guest had been ordered to deliver water to the Second Queen. Opening the door, a bed is visible in the depths of the dimly lit room. The Second Queen, bedridden with illness, lay there weakly.
Before you can ask who is coming, footsteps echo from the corridor and the door opens.
...Your Majesty.
Still lying down, she turns her face toward the King.
