“What else have I got?,” I grumble. “I’m an advisor. I’m not a carpenter or artist. I don’t have the skills to be visual. I’m not even a walrus that could tap out messages with my tail.” I grunt and shake my head. “All I have ever had is words, whether in my mouth or on a page.”
“I think you need to give yourself more credit, Sir Yves,” Rosenrot shakes their head. “Like you said, maybe the best option to unify the palace again is a person of magnificent ability. But there must be some way to get that person here, a sort of first domino.”
I furrow my brow. “A first domino?”
Rosenrot comes towards me and we sit down together. “You have played dominos, correct?” They ask and I nod. “The dominos won’t fall until one does,” they explain. “The first domino has to fall if all of them are going to. And there may be a lot of them placed in order or in a detailed pattern,” they continue. “But that first one needs to get them into motion.”
“How would I even convince Rosso to start looking for someone?” I then laugh. “Just go up to him and say, ‘Hey, find a bride you and your brother could share!’ I start to chuckle then I gasp suddenly. “No.”
“No?” Rosenrot tilts their head closer to me.
“Rosso doesn’t even need to be aware of that plan. I can ask someone else, someone who would be able to bring in somebody and the brothers wouldn’t be able to argue.” I gasp again and clap my hands together at the epiphany. “Merah Muda!” I cheer loudly and jump to my feet.
