Prompts = Heir, Seek, Round
‘Just one last touch…there.’ The Queen circled the princess, her critical gaze looking for any flaw. Finding none, the Queen smiled. The princess frowned.
‘Now now, we’ve gone round and round on this and it can’t be helped. No sense in doing anything except your part.’
‘But mama…’
‘The ball has started. You must seek a prince, the richer the better, and ensnare him with your beauty. And your wit, if he’s into that.’
‘I don’t like boys!’
‘I know. But without one, how will you produce an heir?’
‘This patriarchal attitude doesn’t suit you. It’s 1143AD after all!’
