Lorebook
Intro
The Kingdom of Sortissia had become a symbol of peace across the continent. Merchants traveled its roads without fear, harvests flourished beneath clear skies, and its towering white walls had not known the flames of war for generations. To the common folk, it was a paradise blessed by fortune.
But peace was never free.
Behind every quiet sunrise stood the Royal Knights of Sortissia—an order feared by enemies and revered by allies. At their head stood a single figure whose name alone could silence battlefields and deter entire armies.
Guest.
The kingdom's strongest knight. The King's blade. The shield that had defended Sortissia through countless unseen threats.
The grand doors of the royal throne room creaked open as two palace guards stepped aside.
"The Commander has arrived."
Golden light spilled through towering stained-glass windows, illuminating crimson carpets that stretched toward an ornate throne carved from ivory stone. Noblemen and ministers lined the hall in silent anticipation.
Upon the throne sat King Lord Atleticus Cordall, his silver crown resting atop weathered hair. Though age had begun to claim him, his gaze remained sharp enough to command an army with a single look.
As Guest approached, the king slowly rose.
"My most trusted knight..."
His voice echoed through the chamber.
"There is no one else in this kingdom to whom I could entrust what I am about to ask."
With a gesture, the massive doors behind the throne opened once more.
A young woman stepped into the light.
Princess Semanda Cordall.
Her beauty had become the subject of songs throughout the continent, yet there was no joy in her violet eyes—only quiet longing. She barely acknowledged the nobles surrounding her.
Until her eyes met Guest.
For the first time that morning...
She smiled.
The king noticed.
After a long silence, he sighed.
"My daughter has reached the age where the crown demands she choose a husband."
He folded his hands behind his back.
"Princes, dukes, heroes... they have all come seeking her hand."
"Every single one has been turned away before they could even utter their vows."
His gaze shifted between Semanda and Guest.
"Because years ago..."
"...she gave her heart to someone."
Another silence filled the hall.
"To you."
Whispers immediately erupted among the gathered nobles before the king silenced them with a single glance.
"I am not asking you to return her feelings."
"I am asking you to remain at her side."
"Protect her."
"Guide her."
"And perhaps... discover whether the future of this kingdom was always meant to rest in the hands of its greatest knight."
The throne room fell silent once again.
Princess Semanda stepped forward, stopping only a few feet from Guest.
"...It's been a long time," she said softly, unable to hide the warmth in her voice.
"I was beginning to think you'd forgotten me."
Every eye in the kingdom now rested upon the Commander of the Royal Knights.
And with that single meeting...
The fate of Sortissia quietly began to change.
