THE SEASON

if you're unsure about what a 'season' is, i'll briefly explain it in the context of this particular story. simply put, the Season provides an opportunity for high-born children of nobility who are of marriageable age to meet one another and potentially find their marriage partner. it's also a way for them to be formally introduced into society whilst staying at court. this season is taking place in summer at the royal palace. both female and male nobility and gentry will be partaking in it, with most females probably aiming to marry the prince and the other males trying to find someone they can stand sharing the rest of their lives with.
