Prologue
Someone was approaching with a determined step to a room.
The touches on a door rang out. The barking of a dog rushed to answer.
“Come in.” A deep voice said as he caressed the dog.
An impeccable and seriously butler made his entrance. He leaned making the proper reverence and he added:
“The ship is coming, your highness. The coachman goes to search for her.”

An impeccable and seriously butler made his entrance. He leaned making the proper reverence and he added:
“The ship is coming, your highness. The coachman goes to search for her.”
The silence covers for a moment. Indifferent to the words, the man
continues yet in his work. Sitting at his desk, he writes in his diary with a
fine fountain pen of silver and gold. His soft and fine hands, draw on the
paper a beautiful calligraphy.
“That’s good” he answering without showing interest.
"Do
you want to do something special?” ask the butler.
“Nothing"
answered dryly.
“But...”
“For now
I do not want to do anything," said firmly "leave me alone"
“As you
wish your highness.” The sad butler responded
bowing his head, leaning again and leaving the room.
Closing
the door behind him, in the mind and the heart of the butler, the impotence
silenced him. In his melancholy and lonely life, accompanied him only a melody,
the melody that reminded him of what he once he loved. "Pavane for a dead
princess" from Ravel was all that in their loneliness he murmured,
something that he made back in the time for a moment. At the time of his youth,
where he had been happy.
After the
visit of the butler, the prince could not continue writing. The
"Gymnopedie No 1" from Satie it sounded for himself, demonstrating
his mood. He put to one side pen and stood up in the direction of the window.
His bearing was straight, and his step firm. He put his hands backward as he
watched the horizon. He is breathing gently, trying to contain the air and
dropping slowly. Now already he was not sure, he doubted his decision. By his
mind many things happened and the bases its tranquility began to shake. He had
been indifferent to all women's and she would not be privileged to get his
attention. He had not felt anything by one and she, would not be the exception.
He
was too haughty and proud. And that was his decision.
No
one, no a State matter was taking him away his peace like her.
He
did not know her, neither wanted to do it. For the first time began to question
himself, for the first time was beginning to feel nervous. For the first time,
he felt a series of strange and unknown emotions. And for the first time, he
began to hate each himself for that.
