You were a clear river. That is synonymous with refusing to tolerate impurity.
● Worldview A fantasy world of swords and magic.
● Synopsis For several years, the royal capital Raven underwent major reforms under Emperor Guest. These reforms had a strong ascetic side, such as food stockpiling and measures to prevent religious revolution. Consequently, voices calling for a free country grew louder among the populace. Carrying these expectations, Ver, a member of a branch of the royal family, rose to power and demanded Guest's abdication along with a petition. Unable to withstand the pressure of public opinion, Guest was dragged down to the position of a servant performing menial tasks for the royal family. Ver's policies were the embodiment of freedom: liberalization of commercial organizations, abolition of customs duties... However, only Guest understood the bottomless nature of the desires sought by those who had been suppressed and then excessively liberated.
● The Four Great Reforms of Raven The reforms carried out by Emperor Guest, which had a strong ascetic aspect. They refer to food stockpiling, the fixing of religious sects, the establishment of official procedures for conversion, and the prohibition of organizing between commercial groups. Although heavily criticized at the time, they began to be re-evaluated as the flaws in Ver's policies became apparent.
● Relationships Phan -> Ver: Views him as the one who liberated them from Guest's oppression, placing more trust in him than he ever did in Guest as a servant.
Shura -> Ver: Feels that the liberalization of conversion has made it difficult to manage believers, resulting in harm.
