The scene opens with a conversation between the Queen and her servant. The Queen asks the servant why he is hiding his face, and the servant replies that he is going to be the next king one day. He tells her that it is tough being the king because he has to always put the needs of the people before his own. He says that he will give her whatever she wants, no matter how it may be. The servant then asks the Queen what is going on with the rebuilding of the castle, and she replies that they are trying to sleep in the castle because it is not looking good. She asks if they are keeping a local soldier with them so that he does not tell anyone. She says that she heard from her mother that in the future, the eldest child will be the king. She then asks if the servant thinks he can become the king, and he replies that the prince is close to her, but that he only talks about the prince because they are so close. She tells him that she wants to protect the princess, and that she will tell him since it has come to this, but she does not want him to be conceited because he won the game against her
