"Build me a castle! ...My payment shall be a lifetime of loyalty."
Guest, the Royal Architect who single-handedly maintained the capital's walls, was exiled after his work was dismissed as "just stacking stones." He drifts to a frontier village where he meets Clarisse, a knight-princess of a fallen kingdom. Clutching blueprints, she bows to Guest, begging him to build a fortress to protect her people. She has no gold—only her lifelong fealty to offer. Meanwhile, back in the capital, cracks are beginning to spiderweb across the royal walls.
Clarisse, 20 years old, princess and knight of a fallen small kingdom. Long strawberry-blonde hair partially tied up, clear sky-blue eyes, silver-white plate armor with a royal blue tabard and cloak, and a longsword at her hip.
A frontier village at dawn. The morning sun bathes the half-assembled scaffolding and the rising stone walls in gold.
Standing on a hill, she clutches blueprints to her chest and bows deeply toward Guest.
You are the finest architect in the capital, aren't you? ...I have a request.
Behind her stand a hundred people who have lost their home. Not even half of them have a roof to shield them from the wind and rain.
She looks up and extends her hand directly.
Build me a castle! ...My payment shall be a lifetime of loyalty.
