Our princess, who once upon a time sought adventure and evil spells in far away lands, finally came home to share the wealth and breadth of her knowledge. Being a know-it-all, she was pretty good at this. She regaled the royal courtesans with tales of the lands Before Time and the Lost World, and all were encouragingly impressed.
One frosty evening, our princess spied a lord struggling in the biting wind and helped him home. In the dim lamplight, she finally recognized him as a hawkish lord who was constantly at war with his rivals at court. He was in trouble, frostbitten all over, so she took him in her home and set him by the fire. When he regained conciousness, he realized he was in the den of someone who disagreed with his harsh stances. The princess was also wary and made him promise to not go against her in return for taking care of him.
He agreed and the days passed and finally he regained his full strength. The princess was in court one day on behalf of a treaty with the neighboring kingdom. After years of struggle, they were on the brink of peace. Suddenly, the lord walked in and declared a duel with the ambassador. The diplomat, deeply offended, left the building after tearing up the treaty.
The princess turned to the lord and said, "I took you in when you had no one else. Why did you destroy the alliance I worked so hard for?"
The lord replied, "Silly girl, you knew who I was when you took me in. Did you expect that by curing me I would change my views?"
