Pretty words but complex; a difficult life at court, August 5, 2023

This is a game that is styled in loving detail, written for the Neo Twiny Jam in 500 words or less.

It describes in elliptic and complex language a person who has arrived at court and must carefully navigate the political systems and other intricacies.

The text is simultaneously rich and difficult to understand. For instance, here are two sentences (not set in stone; both can be changed with cycling options):

(Spoiler - click to show)Overwhelming in its capacity for promises as binding as fingers through water. Bloodless as the art she would learn soon enough to become to survive the court’s pleasure.

These sentences are both descriptive and grammatically correct, but due to their nested phrases and clauses it becomes difficult to figure out the meaning.

Overall, it presents an interesting setting.
