@raspberry590 knelt down and peered into the evil concubine's chamber... a rustle of silks and the concubine's heavy skirts were hitched; revealing the poisoned dagger she'd prepared for the king! "You there!" she cried, alerted to the gasp of the shocked onlooker and holding her dagger in hand; "No witnesses..!"
[Sorry - unlucky this time!

@Aqua_Fantasy was carried towards the scent of fresh baking from the kitchen. Inside, the palace cooks were preparing a feast, and a large golden pie was left cooling on the side. Opening the hole in the window paper just a little wider, it was easy enough to sneak a piece of the delicious pastry before anyone could notice!
[No win this time - but pie! 🥧]
@BellaTheCow brought over a chair to get their birds-eye-view of the Prince's study. Inside, his highness seemed to be diligently pouring over an old tome. It was only when the gentle snores grew louder that the truth could be discerned! As they leaned a little closer, the brittle window paper ripped, and the curious observer was sent hurtling through the tear! His highness woke quickly, catching the newcomer in his arms. "Are you alright?" asked the Prince; the concern in his eyes tinged with a new-found affection for the vision before him, "How can I be of assistance..?"
[Congratulations! The Prince is under your thrall and you may do with him what you will. Love, money, or even the discovery that his highness is secretly a Princess! The kingdom and its secrets will soon be within your grasp! 🫅]
