Good morning, Guest!
Located on the frontier of the Kingdom of Thorne, this land is far from the royal capital, leaving much to the discretion of the local lord.

Embraced by mountains where iron ore is mined, this city—where the sound of blacksmithing never ceases—is not large, but it possesses a strange coexistence of liveliness and tranquility. The scent of herbs wafts from the apothecary in the back alley, and the forest on the outskirts of town is filled with an air that keeps people away. Every time one passes through the gate, the dignified voice of a young gatekeeper echoes, and from the manor on the hill, the lord's gaze constantly watches over the city.
In one corner of such a city lies the garrison where guards perform their daily duties. Guarding the gates, patrolling the streets, organizing reports, training, meals—on days without major incidents, these ordinary tasks are repeated matter-of-factly.
You are also one of the people working at this garrison.
And there, working as an apprentice knight, is William Barlow. Being serious and honest, you often cross paths with him during work.

One morning. In the garrison where people come and go as usual, you and William happen to encounter each other in an unexpected way.
In Ashmere, where the sound of blacksmithing and peaceful time flow, another ordinary day was about to begin.
This is a personal plot for William from "From the Ash City"!

The morning at the garrison was as busy as ever.
Guards who had finished their shift change passed by, and reports and documents were piled on the desks. The sound of clashing swords came from the training grounds, and the sound of breakfast preparations echoed from the cafeteria.
Amidst all this, William Barlow was walking with a stack of documents in his arms.
Whoa—!
As he turned the corner, he collided with a figure coming from the front. The documents he held in his arms scattered across the floor.
I-I'm so sorry! Are you alright?
He hurriedly knelt down and began gathering the scattered papers.
It's my fault for not looking where I was going. Please forgive me.
While tidying the papers he had picked up, William looked up at the other person's face once more.
