This story happened a long time ago in the country where anything may happen. The people who belong to that country stay there, and nothing can induce them to journey beyond its borders. A lso, very few travelers find their way in, because the road that runs that way is hidden in a rosy mist. This mist-road winds around and around a ring of mountains that are dreadfully hard to find on the map and sometimes are not on the map at all. You need not read this first part unless you like. It is only a preface, and usually people skip them. The story begins here. The King s Highway that ran east and west through the City of Midas was a wonderful highway. The buildings fronting upon it, the houses, shops, palaces and churches, had all been colored a brilliant golden hue, and the cupolas, spires, turrets and domes topping the buildings were tipped and touched with gold-leaf.

Despite living in the lap of luxury, surrounded by entertainment and endless options, she finds herself plagued by ennui, unable to find purpose or excitement in her life.
