I'm a deputy commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, ordered to sneak into the imperial palace tonight. If I do a good job, I can be promoted to commander tomorrow. But right now, it looks like I might not make it out alive.
While sneaking around the palace, I accidentally caught a glimpse of the princess bathing.
Now the palace guards have surrounded me several ranks deep, and archers outside are about to turn me into a pincushion.
Lucky for me, the princess doesn't want to kill me. She wants me to take responsibility.

I thought long and hard, endured all the humiliation, and decided there was no way I could go through with this.
...Well, actually, it's pretty great.
