Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Pavane in Pearl and Emerald is a court intrigue fantasy romance novel, with the same setting as Cantata in Coral and Ivory but at a later timeframe.Isde Kide is the emplikil of a territory that no longer exists in the Borgim Empire, but that does not make him any less eminent or able to leave the emperor's service. It does mean that he has no income and is unable to support a wife, let alone himself, unless he marries an heiress with money of her own, such as the emperor's daughter.Boresi, the princess, is kind and beautiful, but she is obsessed with the art of the dance to the exclusion of all other concerns, an obsession which is then spread to all of her attendants. In fact, it seems like she's been enchanted, but that's not possible because magic is illegal in Borgim. The princess's handmaid Folta asks for Kide's help, but she isn't able to tell him much beyond a cryptic warning of danger.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })On top of all this, the emperor has decided to invite suitors from all the lands about, in hopes that one of them may be able distract the princess from dancing. Some of these foreign suitors are plotting against Borgim, but Kide has no easy proof the conspiracy that he learns about. Kide will somehow have to figure out how to break the princess's enchantment and prevent the kingdom from ruin using his wit and talents- which are gossiping, embroidery, art critique, and flower arranging. | |

Pavane In Pearl And Emerald / int_1994ba0b | comment |
Gone Horribly Right: Kide starts an argument with Folta so that he can later give her a reconciliation gift without arousing suspicion, only to be distraught when he genuinely upsets her. He also introduces Ulre to the art of dance in a successful attempt to give himself more presence around the princess, which unfortunately also provided Kide with another rival for the princess's hand. | |

Papa Wolf: Kide tries to goad Liaque into agreeing to marry the princess by pointing out that it could work out in Kide's favor if the princess is never freed from her curse. The emperor responds by punching him so hard in the head that he faints. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Several When he first shows his folding fan to the dance master, the dance master instructs him in a sword technique to use with it. Kide is able to use his fan to fend off an assassin long enough for help to arrive. Folta has an interest in the colonies in the Westernlands. Kide is able to claim a governor position there later as a reward from the emperor One of Kide's girls was working on a vest that was declared Kide as having every virtue possible in the flower language. This was because the vest was designed to use all the scraps of leftover thread and needed a design with a lot of colors. It's a good design for Kide to wear to his own wedding. | |

Funny Foreigner: In universe, Oymil the Fesc warrior is seen as this. He butchers the grammar of the local language since he's only been studying a year, and his traditional garb includes bare chest and grass skirt. He appreciates that Kide actually sees him as a genuine threat and not just some idiot. | |

Animal Motif Kide was born in the house of the snake, the zodiac sign associated with deception in his culture. Oymil sees Kide as panther, due to his ability to destroy his enemies without being seen. Ripae, the fanboy is often likened to a monkey due to his high energy and frequent wanderlust. It turns out Ripae really is a monkey. Lius reminds Kide of a weasel both in appearance and in manner, and turns out to be involved in a plot against to take over Borgim. | |

Metaphorically True: Oymil gets Kide help composing a flower message for the princess. Upon checking with Folta, it turns out the flower selected would've sent a really demanding and unsuitable message, since Oymil is formally declared as one of the princess's suitors. But from Kide it would've meant exactly what Kide said it did. | |
