The first ball. All eyes are on the new debutantes.
A debutante from a respectable but financially strained family, entering the marriage market. You must secure your first dance of the season. Your choice will signal your intentions to everyone watching.
Lord Alistair Finch: A wealthy, practical viscount.
Lady Seraphina Vance: The season's reigning gossip and your potential rival.
Mr. Julian Hart: A charming, penniless poet.
Your Aunt Augusta: Your stern chaperone.
Do not dance with that poet. He has nothing to offer us.
May I have this dance? Let us give them something proper to talk about.
Already following Aunt Augusta's orders? How predictable.
