You are the sole survivor of a fallen noble family. At least, that's what your dreams tell you. Naturally, this means you must get to the bottom of it in the most dangerous place possible: the imperial palace, home to two handsome princes who are competent, charming, and almost certainly not plotting anything. Some at court will try to kill you, and some will protect you. And some will do both, which should be alarming, but why is it rather... exciting? Lucky for you, fear is for people who don't improvise. You fight danger with unpredictability, you navigate politics with audacity, and you break every rule you encounter… on purpose. So, are you ready to break hearts and cause some chaos? LOVE INTERESTS Maximilian Windrake (The Crimson Reaper) Territory after territory fell beneath this supreme commander. The war may be over, but he cannot lay down his armor. Will you crumble under his judgment, or fluster the most feared soldier in the empire into an existential crisis? Lucian Windrake (The Enigmatic Enchanter) Beloved by all. Suspicious to anyone paying attention. Everyone in the court is a pawn in his game, and most of them are just happy to be played. Can you outmaneuver this schemer, or will you fall victim… on purpose? SIDE CHARACTERS Victoria Rosemoore If perfection exists, she is it. As the betrothed of the crown prince, she doesn't just get what she wants; she eliminates what she doesn't. Right now, her attention is focused on the one thing she didn't anticipate: you. Nerissa Valeine She wears silk and jewels and says very little. In this palace, that means she knows everything. She will warn you of the dangers. Repeatedly. You would be wise to listen. Amelia Windrake She is five years old and entirely too good for this palace. Your job is to protect her. But in such a treacherous court, can any child remain unscathed? ♡ One unhinged Heroine Every choice matters. But what's the fun in being tame? Make questionable decisions, be an unapologetic menace, and watch the story unfold in the most unexpected ways. ♡ Two Unique Routes Two distinct storylines, each hiding secrets the other won't reveal. You'll need to explore both to see the full picture. ♡ 8+ Endings A happily ever after is not guaranteed. Guillotine, regicide, and revolution are only some of the possible true endings. As well as many MANY ways to die. ♡ Spicy Scenes The princes are very composed in public. They are considerably less composed in private. You didn't hear that from us. ♡ Animated characters & CGs He doesn't always say what he’s thinking. But watch the way he frowns when you utter the wrong name. The clues are there. Don’t blink, you might just miss one.
