While dealing with the King's temper one night, the Grand Duke held suggestion for a royal ball to be held in order to find Prince Charming a bride. He later watched the ball as it took place, gladly seeing that the Prince had found a maiden he seemed rather fond of. Yet one thing went wrong : on the stroke of midnight, the beautiful girl fled the castle, leaving behind a single glass slipper. It was then that the King gave the order to hold a search party, saying that any maiden who fit the slipper would be Charming's bride. The Grand Duke then left without hesitation to carry out his command. Eventually coming before the young Aqua, a Keybearer from outside the world of Castle of Dreams, the Grand Duke had the girl try the slipper, also bringing her before the Prince. Yet this was to no avail, the true maiden who fit the slipper, Cinderella, discovered and marrying Prince Charming to live on happily ever after.
