Ceremonial Hilarity

You walk into the palace waving the mighty Geagle feather before you. Crowds of courtiers surround you on both sides as you make a ceremonial approach to Prince Shane. Several of those just standing close to your path receive a slight puff of air from the waving of the Geagle feather and giggle as you pass.

Prince Shane is prepared for the ceremony. He is wearing clothing that looks considerably less than royal, but which will allow him to be somewhat comfortable once he succumbs. He isn't restrained, the tickling power of the feather being so great that restraint is unnecessary. As you observe his bared feet, positioned to allow full access to the feather, you're struck for the first time by their prodigious size and regal appearance. Barefeet like that could only belong to a real prince, you think to yourself. Your approach complete, it is time for the ceremony to begin.

After a pompous speech from the Chamberlain, you receive a signal to begin. Slowly you raise the Geagle feather in the air and then bring it into contact with Prince Shane's bare soles. A shout of wild laughter erupts from the crowd.

Prince Shane tells you that the tickling power of the Geagle feather should be able to break through the curse in a few minutes. You gently begin to move the feather up and down his bare feet. The laughter from the crowd increases into a thunderous roar as each last person in the room becomes instantly overpowered by the tickling sensation. As the feather tickles both the prince's arches at once, you notice that noone in the crowd can remain standing any longer. Even the guards wearing armour topple to the floor, shrieking hysterically.

As you bring the feather up to Prince Shane's royal toes, he seems to smile as he says that it shouldn't be much longer. You don't know how much more the crowd can stand. Even a few minutes of Geagle-feather tickling seems to have been too much for them. You move the feather between Shane's toes, driving the crowd into dementia. Suddenly the prince begins to gasp...
