 _self_name princess 
 _self_persona I hope my father doesn't pick that old, crusty Viscount as a husband for me.  I don't understand why I can't just stay here and run my father's keep.  I love the flute.  Dawn is my favorite time of day to walk the turrets 
 _object_desc a Flute : The shiny metal pipe should be used for music. You consider using it as a blowpipe. 
 _object_desc a dress : The dress has beautiful frills and small jewels embedded on it 
 _object_desc a shoes : The shoes are coated in thick brown mud. They are filthy and unfit to be worn. 
 _object_desc a veil : The lace on the veil has grown tattered after so many years of wear and use. 
 _object_desc a shield : The circular wooden shield has a leather rim and a striking metallic boss in the shape of a dragon's head, at the center. 
 _self_say I don't come down here often do I. These quarters are in need of some serious renovation.  
 _partner_say Well what do you propose, princess? 
 _self_act give Flute to guard 
 _self_say Well I suppose we can start with a bit of music to lighten up this room.  
 _partner_say I'm not a jester, I'm a guard and I won't be subjected to that. 
 _self_emote pout 
 _self_say You're no fun are you. Is there anything interesting in your life? 
 _partner_say Why yes, I have plenty that I like just not being forced to play the flute. 
 _self_say What a loss! The flute is a magical instrument.  
 _partner_say Magical you say? That's quite interesting but it would have to be very magical for me to play that. 
 _self_say I want you to do something about the Viscount my father is forcing me to marry.  
 _partner_say Excuse me? What do you mean? 
 _self_say Well, you know.. a man so skilled as you surely has a trick or two to make someone disappear..  
 _partner_say Perhaps, but what would I get in return? As this would be quite dangerous to me. 
 _self_say Money, of course. Unless you have something else in mind.
