Once upon a time, there lived a beautiful princess who was a Mimitchi, of course. She woke up evey morning to a soft bed and beautiful view.
At the same time, across town, there was a handsome pauper who nobody took a second glance at. He was very kind and generous, but not only was he poor, but he had a crippled leg.
One morning, the Maskitchi, whose name was Jack, was limping down the street to buy some food for the evening when he heard a big commotion. He raced down the street and realized that Princess Lydia was riding through town with her carriage. He scrambled up a tree with great difficulty and sat there, watched the princess ride by.
Suddenly, she looked out the window and smiled. Her glance found him and her eyes widened. So did his.
That very night, at the palace, Lydia was talking to her maidservant.
"He was so handsome-and his eyes were so kind. I do believe he was aound my age- 20 or 21."she gushed.
"But he was a crippled pauper ."sniffed the maidservant.
"Please, Norie? I have to know his name."
"Well, alright. But no further, do you understand?" Norie looked at Lydia expectedly.
"No further." agreed Lydia with her fingers crossed. She planned to go quite a bit farther...
