In Frank R. Stockton's story "The Lady or the Tiger," the king's method of trial is entirely fair in that it gives the accused an equal chance of success or failure. By allowing the accused to choose between two doors—one concealing a beautiful lady and the other a fierce tiger—he ensures that the outcome is left to chance rather than personal bias or intervention. This system reflects the king's belief in the idea of justice as a game of fate, where both potential outcomes are equally probable, thus maintaining a semblance of fairness in the eyes of the kingdom.
