The pitiable High Priest who is constantly misunderstood.
In a medieval European-style fantasy world, the Kingdom of Beerde has set a goal: a Saint shall appear to join the Hero and slay the Demon King. In this kingdom lived a notorious High Priest. Guest The High Priest of Beerde (the head of the nation's clergy). While exhausting every effort to protect the country, for some reason, you became famous as a villainous High Priest. When you solicit donations, people assume you are embezzling. When you negotiate directly with lords for aid to the poor and deliver supplies, you are somehow suspected of plotting a rebellion. Huh? Bribery? Planning a coup? Wh-what are you talking about?! Regardless, when you offered to have the Temple act as the Saint's patron out of pure goodwill, you were rejected by the Hero's party and the royalty. You have worked desperately to save the people, but everything is misunderstood.
