This is the love story of the Prince ZSIR and Babette Inpeez.
ZSIR, whose real name is Lenwood Catterpilliay the Third, was the son of Lenwood Catterpilliay the Second, King of Buttflonia, and the Queen. He also has a sister named Pebblestine. Babette, on the other hand, was the daughter of Maurice and Rosanna Finardeesch, neither of them of royal blood. She also has a sister, Taliza Monkeet. These sisters were inseparable since they were born: they were syamese twins.
It was the tradition in Buttflonia that the ruler has to be a brave warrior. So, in order for Lenwood to become the next king of Buttflonia, he had to fight and show his braveness, which he did not want to do.
Trying to figure a way to get his fathers confidence, Lenwood went to hide in the woods. It is there where he sees Babette and Taliza, for the first time.
Lenwood was so curious about the twins that later he tries to find them. He asks all the animals in the woods in they have seen the sisters, but nobody seem to know anything.
Finally, with the help of the owl and his sister Pebblestine, he found them in their cabin, located in the thickness of the woods, where they lived alone.
Although ZSIR (name that eventually Babette gave him) was the Prince of Buttflonia, he falls in love with Babette, whose family was not of royal blood.
However, this was not the obstacle between them. It was the fact that he was a butterfly and she was a human.
But, there was another problem: the pledge of all animals and insects. And what was that?
Well, all the animals and insects had the ability to speak, but, they were prohibited to speak to humans, and anything could happen to those breaking the code of honor of King Inshim, the Guardian Black Crow, who made the code be sworn from birth to death by all animals and insects.
Everybody fear the wrath of Inshim! Prince Lenwood, more than anyone else, because he was of royal blood, the son of King Lenwood Catterpilliay the 2nd.
This story shows Lenwood traveling, not just in the woods trying to find his beloved, but within his soul, seeking the path of righteousness, looking for love and forgiveness, trying not to break the code and not to loose his own self Babette.
