Slice of Life Fantasy

By: Kirk Mason

Narrated by: Tom North, Cassandra Quinn

Talk my way into royalty? Easier said than done. Henry was just an ordinary tavern keeper, helping to run the doomed family business. When the Royal Tradesmen's Ball rolled around, he—like usual—wanted nothing to do with it. But the fourth-in-line Lady Garnet offered him a proposal. She wished to shock her family with an outrageous stunt: appearing to court a commoner. He agreed on one condition: no more strangling the tavern.

Little did the lady know, Henry had a grander plan. Using his charms, he'd raise his lowly family name to unfathomable heights. He would talk his way into royalty. Though he didn't count on forming a friendship with the castle's dorky dark-elf librarian, nor did he think he'd catch feelings for both her and the Lady Garnet.

It wasn't all fun and games at the castle. A dark presence loomed in the shadows, darting silently across the rooftops at night, hunting the members of aristocracy it deemed unworthy of the title. Had Henry bitten off more than he could chew?
