You have a feeling you know why the fed-like fairy is glowing, but you keep it to yourself. Instead you say you think you've heard of the story she is talking about. The details are a little sketchy, but it has something to do with a man making a princess laugh and then marrying her.

"Correct." Zul says, looking through the dossier, and then turning it towards you. "We won't know the exact details until we get in the story, but here's the bullet pointed version from HQ's archives."

>The King declares his daughter's hands in marriage to whoever can make her laugh. If the suitor fails however, they are punished.
>Hans and his brothers each attempt to make the princess laugh, but fail and are punished.
>Han's father forbids him from going, but he sneaks out anyway.
>Hans makes the princess laugh and they marry, living happily every after.

"Oh, that's it? That seems kind of boring." Tamako says, tugging at your sleeve to make you shower her the note so she can read it as well.

"Well, these are just the points that we usually have to hit to succeed at the telling the story. The minor plot points will be up to us to solve. That is where the... 'fun' of it is." The alien explains, and then says, "According to the rest of the notes, the parts we get are usually Hans and the brothers. Anyway, I'm going to go do a little bit more research before we head out."

You bid Zul farewell and then go and take your showers. Oddly, the men's shower seems to be a bit neglected. The facilities work, but there is a lot of dust on the sinks and mirrors, and there are cobwebs in nearly every corner. You ask your daughter how the women's shower was and she says, "It's way bigger than the shower at our place, there are even multiple stalls!"

You return to your room, and as you put away your things and are about to head to the Commisary the monitor next to your door lights up reading "INCOMING CALL".

You fiddle with the buttons and knobs below the monitor, and eventually Zul appears on the screen, sitting at her desk and flipping through some papers.

"Sorry to bug you, but I can't seem to get a hold of Kamiko or Hilde. Hilde is probably sulking in her room until we go and get her, but Kamiko is probably requisitioning supplies at the warehouse. Can you grab one of them? I'll go find the other and we can meet up and eat breakfast before leaving."
