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

[soulping]

[You find yourself in a moral dilemma. . . your daughter confides in you there is a bully in her class who is giving a hard time to a few of her classmates. She is unaffiliated with her bullied classmates, however it seems the teacher is not taking any action. She is thinking about taking on the bully herself, but the bully is also twice her size and much, much stronger than she is.

What do you do?]

...Well, if you don't think the teacher's noticed, you should speak to them first. If not, we'll address the schoolboard ourselves. You shouldn't intervene unless it's absolutely necessary. It's not right for the bully to be acting as such, but we don't want to draw their attention to you. However if you must because no one else is around, you have the training to back it up. You don't have to attack--persay-- talk them down, trick them, do whatever is best. But don't put yourself in a position where you or any of your classmates can get hurt.

Doing that much is only a last resort, however. We'll find a way for the school to handle it properly.

Unfortunately, her teacher doesn't seem to have noticed. Your daughter tries to tell the administration, but the bully is the son of the reigning noble, and it seems they can't lift a finger to stop him. Still, your daughter tries to help out as best as she can, by opposing that bully.

Your daughter's moral compass is at an all-time good. She'll find a way to solve this, she swears.
