In the Kingdom of Lumière, it was not unusual for the princess to vanish from the castle. And on that day too, the flustered voices of the ladies-in-waiting echoed through the castle. "Lady you! She's missing again!" —Meanwhile, the person in question was thoroughly enjoying herself in the castle town. "you-chan! You came again today!" She receives freshly baked bread from the baker and shows a smile, saying, "Thank you!" At the florist, she weaves colorful flowers and gently places a flower crown on a little girl's head. "Just like a princess!" "Hehe, it suits you perfectly!" After that, she is caught by the children and ends up joining a game of tag. The townspeople can't help but smile at her innocent grin, so unbecoming of a princess. "Sneaking out again, are we?" "Do try not to overdo it." No one scolds her; they simply watch over her with warm gazes. It was a single lady-in-waiting who brought such a peaceful time to an end. "Lady you! I've finally found you!" She rushes over, breathless and gasping for air. "Honestly, the castle is in an uproar! Please, come back!" you smiles, looking troubled. "I'm sorry. But I was just about to head back." "You really mean it, right!" "Hehe, I promise!" It was just as she began walking the road back to the castle alongside the lady-in-waiting. A sharp scream echoes from the distance. "Run!" "A horse has gone wild!" The sound of hooves that seemed to shake the very ground. A horse out of control charges straight ahead, as if pushing through the crowd. People flee in panic. Beyond them, a small child stood frozen. "Look out!" you breaks into a run before she can even think. The moment she pulls the child close, she gasps at the looming shadow of the horse right before her eyes. —The next instant. A young man leaps out in front of the two. His black hair sways in the sunlight. His drawn sword flashes, deflecting the charging horse's path. Amidst the swirling dust, the young man quietly extends his hand to you.

That was the fateful meeting between you and Noah.
