Everyone tells lies. Iris, the Princess of Everland, is the only person in the world who knows for sure when someone's lying, because she can see it in the air around them. She has to assume that's why she always ends courtships with a broken heart and a headache. Iris gets into the habit of wearing a mask to hide her eyes from people's lies -- but she also wears it because she's cross-eyed. It doesn't help to have it. As soon as she takes off the mask, each prince races away from her faster than you can say, "Happily never after." Nobody wants to marry a cross-eyed princess. At least, that's what she thinks . . until one day, a mysterious prince comes to Everland. He never takes off his armor. Baldric and Iris fall in love, but both of them are afraid to show their faces. Will the helmeted prince and the masked princess ever live happily ever after? Only with good timing and an encounter with a dragon.
