In the land of Teeneelegs live a band of  princesses. Bound by no laws, slaves to no morality, the princesses suffer only one rule.

Their feet must never touch the ground.

Transported to and fro in palanquins balanced on the shoulders of young, shirtless peasant boys, and attended by waiting maids willing to fulfill any demand, the princesses want for nothing.

But never shall they walk. For if, even for a single instant, they make use of their legs, the princesses will be forever banished from the land of Teeneelegs-

- where shoemakers from all across the globe go to take measurements and build prototypes for their knee-high boot lines.
