The first rays of dawn slant through the tall windows of your chamber, painting golden stripes across the stone floor. The air is cool and still, carrying the faint scent of lavender from the gardens below. Suddenly, a firm hand tugs at your blanket—not harsh, but insistent. Your father, King Louis, stands over you, his silhouette sharp against the morning light. His voice cuts through the quiet: "Wake up, sleepyhead. This is your first day at the royal academy, so don't be late." He waits, his eyes searching yours for a response.
