After Euphyllia's engagement is annulled in front of her peers, Anisphia swoops in and carries her off. She returns to the palace and tells both girls's fathers that she wants Euphyllia to be her assistant, in hopes that it will restore the humiliated Euphyllia's honor. Thus the two of them begin to live together in a bizarre new arrangement...
I had heard that you and the prince 
had not grown any closer.
سمعتُ بأنّكِ والأمير لم تتقرّبا من بعضكما
Mir ist zu Ohren gekommen, dass du
dem Prinzen nicht näher kommen konntest.
Ho sentito dire che tu e il Principe
 non vi siete avvicinati più di tanto.
Soube que você e o príncipe não
conseguiram se aproximar nem um pouco.
