He was a young prince, handsome, elegant, and the king and queen's only child in a big and wealthy nation. He didn't approve of common everyday activities and ordinary pleasures, and didn't like to ride horses, nor hunt, nor have fun in any other way. He only liked books. He would spend many hours in his room located in the highest watchtower in one of the corners of the royal palace. When he started reading a story, nothing and no one could convince him to come out of his room until he turned the last page and read the last word. The king truly wished for his son to marry as soon as possible, because he thought that it was time for him to settle down and pick a princess who would become an excellent queen when the prince took over his nation's government. The prince, however, didn't want to think about marriage and he told his father that he was very happy and didn't want to make any changes in his life. Instead of wearing the king's crown he preferred to be a prince; and as far as the princesses, they were unpleasant and from what he had read in many books, all of them, or most of them, were foolish and vain. In his opinion, the only ones not included in this general rule, were his mother and his cousin Jacobita. What will happen with the prince and his parents' wishes that he marries soon? Will he find the ideal princess?
