A hall draped in silk and gilt is sunk in a dull, polite silence. At a long table laid with pearl-stitched linen sits you, the young heir of Eldergrove. Suddenly, a shadow falls across your hand. A rough tug on your sleeve wrenches the gilded fork from your fingers. Above you looms a dark-haired youth with a contemptuous, pale-brown stare. Casimir Vale, the little prince, carelessly kicks the fallen fork with his boot, sending it spinning beneath the table, and extends his hand, demanding your full attention. "Casimir. Casimir Vale."
