Princess Maker 1.5: Taisho Roman Revolution

[ When you insert the key and open the door, you'll find the room inside looks like the living room of a mansion. There are several doors, but one in particular stands out to you: it is ornately decorated, the very door's wood itself carved beautifully with gold etched in to make luxurious patterns depicting what looks like the sky and the wind blowing through the grasslands. Though the door is closed, you can see through it—as if it's somewhat transparent.

The room is painted baby blue and a gold-plated cradle sits in the room. Inside, a baby cries—high pitched and noisy. That child, your charge—you're her nursemaid, so you go to her and rock her to sleep. ]

-

[ Slowly, the scene changes, fading in and out with various silent scenes—the baby sits up, trying to climb out of her cradle; a little toddler dressed prettily with expensive clothes beams pleasantly; a tantrum, thrown by the little girl who's distressed; the little girl holding a puppy, pleased as punch; then the wall becomes opaque. ]

[ In the middle of the open doorway, a young girl at the age of 11 sits on a chair, smiling at you. A long-haired, pure white cat is curled up beside her.

This is your little girl. you couldn't help spoiling her, honestly—after all, she's a noble too, and she should like to become a princess as well. She deserves it! But you also know, with how her family history has gone, she's going to have to work to get to the top. Still, you have faith in her—she's your girl, after all. Fortunately, when she goes to the Lost Continent, she won't be alone: you, as her longtime caretaker (her third parent, really, or her first, if you consider how her family's left her care entirely to you), may accompany her to her new school. You'll be her ally, her support, her greatest weapon; you'll be the one who determines her success . . . or her failure. ]

[ Of course, you're not the only one that thinks your charge deserves the world: Samira, one of the Queens of your Kingdom, hand-selected your employers' child. She could not send her own child to the Lost Continent, of course—she has her own inheritance battle to face within the Kingdom and sending her own child out is essentially forfeiting that battle—so she's selected theirs to sponsor. It's because of her that your charge will be able to go at all. That your child would catch the Queen's eye surely means the inheritance is as good as hers! ]

It is easy enough to plant things, Tsukinaga. Such a trial can be easily rigged.

Hm... I can't argue with that! But then how do we put them on trial? The words of the privileged are about as flimsy as the gold plates they eat off of.

What if we turn them against each other? If we can get even one of them to turn traitor, then their entire story crumbles right?

Such people are wolves, I am sure they are slavering to turn on their own but I will not support Ruka participating in barbarism. She should declare this beneath her, and if the other girls care about jewels, it only shows how classless they are, that a few trinkets going missing causes such a big stir.

They are wolves! That's why we should eat them first!

We should ask Ruka what she really knows, and if they're liars like we think we should expose them!

The incident with the knights has made it clear that she will be under suspicion, though I doubt she is the lone culprit.

Ratting the others out should grant her immunity right? That's how it works in the movies!
