Princess Amara wants to find a husband. She has 3 criteria:

He should be of noble birth (a prince).
He ought to be intelligent and hold stimulating conversations.
He has to be brave and stand by her side.
The Duchess Beatrice sends Prince Edward, who is handsome and well-born, but lacks intelligence and finds intellectual discussions boring.

Prince Frederick is the next suitor. He's brave and a skilled fighter, but has no interest in Amara's love for astronomy and finds it unimportant.

Neither prince meets all of Amara's criteria.

Amara helps a village from bandits and meets Leo, a scholar with no royal title. However, he is intelligent, kind, and shares Amara's interests.

Princess Amara wants to find a husband. She has 3 criteria: He should be of noble birth (a prince). He ought to be intelligent and hold stimulating conversations. He has to be brave and stand by her side. Duchess Beatrice, the Royal Matchmaker, promised to find her a good match.

The Search Begins

Prince Edward, looking very fancy and handsome, is talking to Princess Amara, who looks sad.

The first suitor, Prince Edward, arrived the next day. He was handsome, with a dazzling smile and a lineage as long as the Nile. He spoke eloquently of hunting and polo, but when Amara asked about philosophy, his eyes glazed over. Disappointed, Amara politely excused herself.


The Second Suitor

Next, Duchess Beatrice introduced Prince Frederick. He was brave and a skilled fighter. However, he had no interest in Amara's love for astronomy. He found it unimportant and dull. Amara was disappointed once again.

A Heroic Encounter

Leo was not a prince, but he was intelligent and kind. He loved astronomy just like Amara. They spent hours talking and sharing ideas. Amara realized that true love didn't need a royal title. She found her perfect match in Leo.
