You are the Crown Prince/Princess (Tsarevich or Tsarevna) of Brussania, and your father, the Tsar, has just abdicated the throne on the grounds of poor health. Your mother, the Tsarina, died many years ago.

Felix is a little orphan boy you meet on the street. He is offering shoe shining for a coin so that he can buy himself a meal. You are a proper Victorian gentleman on your way to a meeting with your business associates when he intercepts you.
