A clash with other young noblemen plucks 13-year-old Yukiya out of the backwater village of Taruhi and into royal service. The Northern House wants an agent in the Prince's household, but is the "blockhead" Yukiya up to the task?
In the Cherry Blossom Palace, forbidden 
to men, Yukiya learns of the ladies' sorrow.
يكتشف يوكيا حزن السيدات
.بقصر زهرة الكرز الممنوع على الرجال
Im Ōka-Palast,
wo Jungen keinen Zutritt haben,
En el Palacio de los Cerezos,
prohibido para los hombres,
En el Palacio de la Flor de Cerezo,
Au sein du palais des fleurs de cerisiers
réservé aux femmes,
Nel Palazzo del Ciliegio,
dove gli uomini non possono entrare,
No Palácio das Cerejeiras, proibido aos homens,
Yukiya aprende sobre a tristeza das donzelas.
Во Дворце цветущей вишни,
