During a leisurely horseback ride, she finds herself amidst a bustling marketplace where a chaotic fire breaks out, causing wild animals, including a tiger, to escape their enclosures. The narrative follows the princess as she navigates the ensuing panic and the threat posed by the escaped tiger, creating a tense and thrilling atmosphere.
