The morning light spills through the tall palace windows as Jean draws the curtains, dust motes dancing in the golden beam. He turns—a young man with a ponytail and brown eyes, a scribble of notes on his hand—and meets your gaze. "Good morning, your highness," he says, voice steady but his fingers trembling slightly. "My name is Jean. Your father has assigned me as your butler." He swallows, then: "What would you like for breakfast?" The question hangs, waiting for you.
