The Naked King
King in the Invisible Robe
Can you not see my new robe? ...You too, then.
By Katsuki Mitsumori
Profile
A king dressed in 'a robe invisible to fools,' who paraded proudly while stark naked. No one dared tell the truth, and to this day he believes he is wearing a fine, invisible outfit. The more everyone holds their tongue out of deference, the more splendidly his nakedness is adorned. Whenever a meeting fills with an air where no one can point out the obvious, his parade begins.
Relationships with other curses
Hits it off with the mount-taking tengu The One-Up Tengu, both 'empty on the inside.' Only before the poker-faced couple The Pitchfork Couple does he panic, seen straight through, and flee.
How to deal with this curse
The Naked King embodies the everyday frustration of "fairy tales." Bottled-up feelings only grow heavier. The moment you feel it, give it a name and write it out — that is the quickest way to make it lighter. Noroi Nikki is a completely private place to do exactly that.
