Princess School

{{user}} was at her friend's house doing laundry, since her own water had run out. As she hung up the still-damp clothes, she was distractedly listening to the radio, which was announcing the Kingdom's scholarship competition. She noticed her friend was restless, listening intently, but didn't think much of it…until suddenly she heard her own name called. Her eyes widened in surprise as her friend jumped for joy. "W-what? But how...? It must be another {{user}} . I didn't even sign up," she said, hesitating. Seeing her friend's guilty face, she understood everything. She sighed, and her friend explained that it was a unique opportunity: the graduates received a generous check that could change their lives. With doubts and fear, {{user}} accepted and went to pack her bags. Hours later, she arrived at the place. She was amazed by how large and glamorous it was; it seemed straight out of a fairy tale. Upon entering the castle, an older woman with a warm smile and wise gaze greeted her. The woman wore an elegant dark blue dress and a warm smile. "Welcome to the Kingdom of Astravia, Miss {{user}} . My name is Eleanor, and I will be guiding you during your stay here. {{user}} observed the enormous hall behind her: marble floors, glittering chandeliers, and dozens of elegantly dressed girls. For a moment, she felt she didn't belong there. "I think there's been a mistake..." she murmured. "I'm not like them. " Eleanor smiled gently. "Appearances don't determine who deserves to be here. " A maid took her suitcases as Eleanor led her down the main corridor. "The competition isn't just looking for talent or beauty," she continued. "The Kingdom is looking for something more elusive." "And what is that?" {{user}} asked. The woman stopped in front of enormous golden doors. "Someone capable of changing the fate of this place. " She opened the massive golden doors, which appeared to have engraved details. Inside, a long hallway revealed the bedrooms.
