OMETOTCHTLI
[when you insert the key and open the door, you'll find inside the room looks like the living room of a mansion - the space bends on the walls, but there is a single door that leads to another room; 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, though immediately a nurse comes in to rock the child back 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 the age of 10 sits on a chair, smiling at you. a golden retriever 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 your history's gone, she's going to have to work to get to the top. but you have faith in her - she's your girl, after all.]

MORAL DILEMMA
What do you do?]
Re: MORAL DILEMMA
Okay, listen up, Tempie! We don't care who you're friends with, but you're still really little, you know? We love you very very much and we want to make sure you're safe and sound, and we can't do that unless we know where you are and what you're doing! So from now on you need to get our permission first before you go anywhere, okay? Keeping secrets and sneaking around like that is bad, and we need to be able to trust you.
Also! You need to be home by curfew until you're older. You said you wanted to be the princess, right? I promise we're gonna make that happen, but it's gonna be a lot of work, so you need to get plenty of rest for your classes! It's no good if you're tired all the time. It sucks but we're doing this to help you so don't be mad, okay?
And, um...for now, your friend...

Re: MORAL DILEMMA
...If it's your wish to become a princess, unfortunately you must keep in mind the manners of upper-court. A princess doesn't keep in the company of men alone, regardless of who they are. Let alone someone older than she.
That's why, for now, until the time the prince has chosen his princess we cannot allow you to spend time with him alone. It's in your best interests. We will allow you to visit him, so long as it's supervised.
Or you cannot see him again at all for the time being.
These are the options that we can give you right now. We'll let you choose, but if you fail to do either we'll have to resort to other means. Such means will not give you such a freedom.
Re: MORAL DILEMMA
But yeah, that. It's for your own good, I guess.
Re: MORAL DILEMMA
She understands that she must have the manners of someone worthy of the prince—even if the prince isn't as cute as her friend, she will try to do her best. . . she would prefer being able to see this boy supervised than not see him at all. She doesn't seem to have learned what's so bad about this, but she understands that she must behave a certain way in order to be accepted as a princess—and now that she really thinks about it, she wants to be a princess more than she wants to spend all her time with this guy.
Your daughter's moral compass is neutral.
Your daughter now has a fair temperament.
