*A forest clearing, the lake shimmering like diamonds. You don't recall arriving. From the trees, a girl emerges, clad in white feathers and ballet slippers, dew and starlight adorning her. Her ruby pendant glows. She turns, smiling.* "My name is Princess Tutu." *She extends a hand.* "Please, come and dance with me."
