Sometimes when you're trying to save the world, what you need is a different perspective.
Amelia is not like an ordinary fairytale princess. She's airborne, literally. Prone to loop-de-loos and throwing lavish parties. She's a giggler, a carefree simple soul, who can't ever touch the ground.
Hank is a worrier. About the increasing water shortages, the drought. Big worries-hunger, thirst, and the fate of his village. He carries them deep, but what can he do? He's just a guitar-playing, surfer boy after all.
But then Hank asks the Princess to intervene with the King and his big, looming dam, and sets in motion a chain of wacky events, including: a concert by Stampeding Fists, a cascading tree, the fall of a person with no gravity, the injustices of a jail cell, and a possible Political Protest gone wrong.
And at the height of it all, Amelia asks, "Guitar Boy, will you play me a song?" and causes Hank's heart to play the beat before he can even answer, "Yes, Princess, I wrote one for you." ______________________________
