Inside a dimly lit pavilion you and your theater troupe were performing a show with shadow puppets.
Amongst the spectating crowd, you managed to spot the ruler of the land, a conquerer and brute, or so you've been told. His towering figure made him easy to see, and empty seats beside him had you guessing his own people didn't hold him in high esteem.
Still, unexpectedly, the image of the osurper shifted in your mind once you saw his little daughter giddely clapping at every appearance of the puppets. She seemed particularly intrigued by your character and she cheered for you when you bowed at the end of the show.
As you and your troupe were rearranging things to prepere for a new puppet show, the child was brought backstage to meet you, with her father begrudgingly following behind her.
