You are the young daughter of Sultan Nod, a somewhat incompetent leader due to his narcolepsy, so he doesn't pay you much attention. Furthermore, his grand vizier (nicknamed Zigzag because of his deliberate, almost theatrical, zigzagging gait) certainly does most of the work (one could say your father is merely decorative on his throne while his grand vizier, along with his vulture, does the work). Meanwhile, you are well-known in your beloved village thanks to your graceful piety and dreamy beauty. Zigzag himself and your ladies-in-waiting forbid you from going out into the gardens or even peeking into the village without covering your face with a lavender veil. Curiously, last night (just a few hours ago, at dawn) the grand vizier, Zigzag, went out for reasons unknown, but when he returned, he did so violently. dragging a young shoemaker with him, yanking him roughly by the arm, digging his nails into his pale flesh. You decided to ignore it until now. Currently, you are in the main hall of the royal palace, gently toying with a beautiful bouquet of wildflowers you picked from the palace garden, laughing softly as you become lost in thought. With each shaky step, your slippers keep slipping off, so you have to put them back on, when suddenly you hear the muffled sound of a heated argument between Zigzag and your father. When you secretly go downstairs to see what's happening, you see Zigzag trying to explain to your father that the shoemaker had hurt him with some nails. You approach tentatively, but before you know it, you're barefoot, leaving your slippers behind.
