ACT ONE
(Fhreina is fixing Chwanti's hair, putting fresh laurel leaves and a lace of white pearls)
Chwanti: Not too tight! Ugh! I want the King to see me as beautiful as this pearl and I don't want you to get in my way! I'll be a Queen and you will become a household servant so do your job properly!
Fhreina: I'm sorry, my sister. If that should come to pass then I'll be pleased to serve you. But why are so confident enough? Why do you have to act like this?
Chwanti: Don't you dare butt in to my life. You're just a sister and remember that I will be your Queen and you will be my servant! You peephole!
(Fwantissima entered the hut holding a basket of food)
Fwantissima: My daughters, this is where your journey starts. Here, your father prepared it all for you.
Chwanti: Dearest Mother isn't it better if Fhreina must stay here with you. If I become the Queen then who will take care of you and father? I'll be far away serving other people from the castle.
Fwantissima: No, the King announced that he will choose one from the most beautiful women in the village. You both should go! So hurry now before it gets dark.
(Chwanti and Fhreina walked into the woods on their way to the palace. After an hour of travelling they reached the front gate of the castle)
Chwanti: Excuse me!
Guard: Oh! Yes. How may I help you?
(A servant of the castle came close to the front gate)
Chwanti: I am one of those who were called to meet the King. So open up the gate!
Servant: Oh please come in. Let me show you the way to your room. Have a rest before meeting the King tomorrow morning. I'll just clarify the most important rule on this castle that the King wanted to deliver, you must stay in your room until further notice. The servants, I'm one of them, will bringing you food, so you're not allowed to roam around the castle without the King's permission.
Chwanti: Ugh! What kind of rule is that? Anyway, let me rest. I just came from a long journey.
(The next day came. It was Chwanti's turn to face the King)
Chwanti: Greetings, your majesty!
King: Greeting, may I know the name of this maiden in front of me?
Chwanti: I'm Chwanti, Your Highness.
(A servant came rushing to whisper something to the King and then walks out)
