The project doesn't have a name yet, but we're going for baroque horror inspired by multiple versions of The Twelve Dancing Princesses - here's the rough pitch:
The king of a small kingdom has twelve daughters, all of them beautiful and of marriageable age. For their alleged safety, he keeps them locked up day and night in the east wing of the royal palace, because - somehow - the princesses' shoes are found ruined every morning. No one can explain it: not the princesses, or the guards, or even the poor cobblers who have to make twelve fresh pairs every day.
Handsome young suitors started coming to the kingdom to try uncovering the truth behind the mystery, but no one has succeeded, and in anger the king has had every suitor executed for their failures.
The main character (can be he/she/they, player's choice) is an assistant gardener at the palace and has a mysterious dream about the princesses. This leads to them volunteering (accidentally or intentionally, player's choice) to find out what's going on. They end up following the princesses down through a series of increasingly beautiful-but-horrific forests into an underworldly ballroom, where they spend the night dancing with strange supernatural beings and the ghosts of the fallen suitors. Over three nights, the balls get more and more sinister.
On the last day, the king calls on the main character and demands to know what they've learned.
