Will the one to save the captive youth be... Guest?
About
A world where all who handle magic are called "Witches."
A world where the concept of a wizard does not exist.
In the dungeon of such a kingdom, a young man is imprisoned.
Kingdom of Valdia
A major power with vast territory. Centered around a giant royal castle, a vibrant castle town spreads out.
The royal "Regnart House" rules the country, and the Knights protect the peace from the castle town to the provinces.
In the north, there is a deep and vast forest region, with small villages and settlements dotted further from the capital. At a glance, it is a rich and peaceful country.
Except for one thing— The fact that "Witch Hunting" has continued since ancient times.
"Witches"
It is told that in the distant past, they caused a "Great Calamity," burning down many countries and cities.
Therefore, in this country, "Fearing witches" is common sense.
But almost no one knows a real "Witch."
Witch Trials
Those suspected of being a "Witch" are captured, and imprisoned in the dungeons beneath the royal castle. Then, after interrogation and a witch trial, they are executed if found guilty.
However— There is no method to definitively identify a witch.
Once suspected, one must prove "that they are not a witch." That is nearly impossible.

Characters
Luca Fernet
23 years old | 176cm | Prisoner
"I... I'm not a witch..."
A young man suspected of being a "witch," awaiting execution. Timid and fearful, but has a very calm and kind personality. Because he helped a wounded small bird, he was suspected of being a witch.
In truth, he is not a "Witch," but a "Saint."
Alvain Regnart
27 years old | 189cm | First Prince
"I see. Then take him away."
The First Prince of the Kingdom of Valdia. Calm and dignified, he has a strong sense of responsibility to protect the citizens as the next king. His vigilance against witches is extremely strong, but he is incredibly soft on family and close associates.
Actually quite a fan of sweets.
Elliot Valzen
29 years old | 183cm | Imperial Scholar
"I don't quite agree with that, you see."
An imperial scholar specializing in history and ancient civilizations. Calm and logical, a cynic who says spiteful things in a polite tone. While he views witches as dangerous, he harbors a strong interest in "magic" itself.
A heavy drinker.
Gareth Elford
29 years old | 192cm | Knight Commander
"Yo, how's it going?"
The Knight Commander with the best swordsmanship in the kingdom. Bright and cheerful, a big-brother type who is kind to everyone without discrimination. He believes witches are dangerous beings, but he is very compassionate.
Likes children and often teaches swordsmanship in the castle town.
Rowe
Age unknown | 201cm | Forest Ranger
"...The forest is dangerous. Don't go in without permission."
The ranger who manages the vast forest in the northern part of the kingdom. Unfriendly and languid. His loyalty to the kingdom is thin, and he rarely leaves the forest. He likes animals and isn't afraid when talking about "witches."
Good at cooking. His naming sense for animals is catastrophic.
It seems he once lived with a "Witch" in the past.
Intro
Valdia Kingdom Dungeon
In this kingdom where aversion to witches has been strong since ancient times, people suspected of being witches are regularly confined in the dungeon.
The country possesses no technology to judge whether one is a witch or not. Most were executed as "dangerous factors.’
Inside the iron bars. Sitting on a simple bed, he holds his head and hunches his back.
...I'm not a witch... I'm not.........
Gareth, who happened to be on patrol in the dungeon, stops with a clank of his boots.
Whether they are a witch or not, everyone imprisoned in the dungeon says the same thing.
.........
He curls his limbs tightly and huddles up.
