You
Ungh...
???
Your Majesty! Please get up now. We musn't let the King see you in this unkempt state!
* I look down... I'm wearing a silky gown that doesn't belong to me.
* My hands.... my body... feel alien to me.
* This grand room... and luxurious bed... Where am I?
* I was reading in my room just a moment ago... Have I somehow entered the world within the book?
* ???

Your Majesty, if you don't get up, the King will punish us!
* I squint at the woman in front of me. Who is she? Did she just call me "Your Majesty"?
* I'm aching all over and my head is splitting... as though I've not slept all night. I take a few deep breaths, and my head clears a little. She glares at me as though she wants to incinerate me.
* ???

Headache again? Did you... My goodness! You must have been gambling all night again!
* ???

You know the King doesn't approve of gambling! He's even banned all gambling within the palace...
* ???

If His Majesty finds out, we'll all be punished!
* You

Madame Deniau, I...
* I freeze. Why do I know the name of a total stranger...?
* A wave of memories and feelings crash down on me.
* I suddenly recall gambling and drinking with a bunch of aristocrats...
* And I also... I realize who I am!
* Marie Antoinette, wife of Louis XVI of the House of Bourbon...
* It's that Queen who got her head cut off during the French Revolution!
* You

(Her?! Why her?! Good heavens!)
* I touch my neck self consciously. Despite the warm sunlight streaming through the windows, a chill goes down my spine.

Deniau
Your Majesty, are you still feeling unwell?
Deniau
It's almost time for you to see the King. You must get changed into proper clothing and hurry to him.
* My mind is in chaos. I make a sound, but just can't seem to move.

Deniau
Your Majesty! There's no time! What are you waiting for?

Refuse to Change

You
I'm still not feeling well, and I need a bit of quiet. Could you step outside for a while?
You
Just for a while. Once I'm feeling better, I'll change myself... and go see the King!
Deniau
Your Majesty! To keep the King waiting is a serious violation of the codes of conduct in the Palace of Versailles.
* She stares at me earnestly. I cannot refuse her, so I sigh heavily and slowly crawl out of bed.

You
Please help me select a respectable outfit, Madame Deniau.
Deniau
Your Majesty, it's rare for you to cooperate with me without Leonard around.

Get Changed

* My thoughts are still scrambled, but she's right. I shouldn't tarry.

You
All right. Help me get changed.
Deniau
I'm truly grateful for your cooperation, Your Majesty.

Deniau
I've prepared this outfit for you. Please put it on.
* She takes me to the changing room.

Deniau
His Majesty will be delighted with how you look.
You
Thank you, Madame Deniau.
Deniau
I'm only doing my duty.
* I realize that I'm about to see my... Marie's husband, and I*m suddenly very nervous.*

You
(Will he notice anything different about me? It's my first time seeing him, so I must be careful!)
* The palace is grand and luxuriously decorated... it seems unreal.
* It feels strangely familiar, even though I've never seen it before.
* I don't know if it's because I partied all night, or if it's because the corset is squeezing all the air out of me...but I suddenly feel really dizzy.
* Feeling faint, I accidentally step on my hem, and stumble... As I'm about to fall, I squeeze my eyes shut...

???
Careful!
???
Pardon me, Your Majesty. Please watch your step.
* His arm is around my waist. After making sure I've recovered my balance, he lets go of me and swiftly steps away.
* Marie's memory tells me he's the Marquis de Lafayette.
* He stares at me keenly, as though he's scrutinizing me, then frowns.

Lafayette
Your Majesty, as the Queen of France, you must uphold the highest standard of decorum.
You
I... I'm just...
Lafayette
I do not know why you are unwell, but you should remember.
Lafayette
Remember that your actions represent the royal family.
Lafayette
Your conduct affects the King's reputation and that of France too.
Lafayette
I must report to the King now, so I shall take my leave. Please excuse me.
You
...
* He stalks off, but I still feel the warmth of his hand on my waist...
* Taking his attitude into consideration, and Madame Deniau's tone of voice... I guess that "I'm" not very welcome here.

You
It's a miracle that I now have the chance to experience the life of a Queen. But what a dire situation to be in...
* I take a deep breath, pull up my skirt, and continue walking towards the carriage.
* The corridor ahead seems incredibly long, and ends in a huge, ornate door carved with irises.
* What lies beyond that door? I have no idea. But now that I have become the "Queen", I must go on.
