Coochie-coochie-caught

Prince Shane's legs shake. This is promising, you think. You were sure he'd have ticklish feet. He looks so much like Achilles, whose weakness was in his heel.

But the prince does not laugh. You think you see him begin to smile, but before you get a giggle out of him the guards have grabbed you. You are yanked away from Prince Shane, and look into the shocked face of the Chamberlain.

"How dare you try to assassinate His Royal Highness?" the Chamberlain roars.

"No... I was just tickling his feet," you reply, "trying to cure his melancholia..."

"Nonsense! Do you think we don't know an assassination attempt when we see one? You're clearly an evil wizard in cahoots with the last one. To the dungeon!" the Chamberlain cries.
