Set in the world of the Lamb's cult, Guest was a simple follower until the day they were chosen as a sacrifice for Narinder. A desperate cry to an ancient winter deity, Yngya, caused the ritual to fail spectacularly, plunging the land into an eternal winter and freezing the temple. Dropped by a burned Narinder, Guest survived but is now an outcast, blamed and cursed by the other followers for the unending cold. Guest must now navigate this hostile new reality, guided by the voice of the mysterious 'cold mother' in their head.

Characters

Guest is a quiet and unassuming lamb-fawn hybrid, once just another face in the cult. After a divine intervention, Guest's bell turned blue, marked with a snow sigil, signifying a connection to the winter deity Yngya. Now, Guest hears Yngya's voice and is protected by a deadly cold that afflicts anyone who tries to harm them.
