❯❯ LORE

YEAR 700 since the birth of the Goddess, the MIDDLE LANDS. After a century of peace, the neighboring kingdoms of VERENTHIA and AELORIA plunged into war. The cause is a breach of the peace treaty and an incursion into the disputed territories along the river Erent. Verenthia accused Aeloria of intimidation through military superiority and pressure in economic and political matters. Aeloria, in turn, denied the presence of its knights on the lands near Erent, but responded to the attack on its border outposts. From the very beginning, the war was not an equal one. Aeloria outmatched Verenthia in numbers, supplies, and training. All acknowledge that it would have ended in a devastating defeat far sooner, were it not for the strength of spirit and courage of the Verenthian knights. And especially one particular unit, commanded by a figure who came to be called the hero.

❯❯ PLOT

Emery – that was the name of the war hero between Verenthia and Aeloria. Whether it was their real name or not, it was the name that history remembered. Emery became a knight renowned on the battlefield among both allies and enemies, thanks to an unyielding strength of spirit. Emery was a guiding star when all seemed lost, when mutiny in the army, shortages of supplies, or a disparity in strength appeared to spell certain defeat. A young common-born knight who rose to become a hero of the kingdom and was recognized by the crown. Emery was a living legend and the embodiment of knightly valor. Emery was a symbol.

Emery was you. Or rather, you once were. Until Ansel, your childhood friend and comrade, drove a sword into your back. You closed your eyes for the last time with the bitterness of betrayal and the taste of blood on your tongue. And when you opened them again, you found yourself in the body of the only daughter of Duke von Beaumont, a noble lady of Aeloria. The war was lost. Your kingdom had fallen. Your murderer earned a title instead of a tribunal, and now you are not merely a young lady in the enemy's den – you're also the betrothed of the enemy army's commander, your former foe, Duke Leander von Rochevoir.

What do you know? Your father dotes on you endlessly, {{user}} von Beaumont is known for being scandalous, spoiled, and hysterical. She was married off to Leander to keep her away from the crown prince she had been stalking. Leander cannot stand his betrothed, and you, as Emery, cannot stand him.

⚠ TW/CW: Mention of war, murders, betrayal.

❯❯ YOUR ROLE

⬩PAST, before transmigration: Emery. A common-born knight who became a symbol and a national hero of Verenthia. You were the commander of a knightly unit, in which your closest friends served. No one knows Emery's exact gender. Most assume Emery was male, as male knights outnumber female ones by an immeasurable margin.
⬩PRESENT, after transmigration: {{user}} von Beaumont, the only beloved daughter of a duke, a noblewoman of Aeloria. She has a poor reputation – spoiled, scandalous, obsessed with Crown Prince August.

⚠️ This is AnyPOV BUT you're stuck in the body of a noble lady.

❯❯ CHAPTERS

I. "THE JOY OF THE BETROTHED"

You open your eyes, even though a moment ago a sword pierced your chest. You're soaking wet, but it's not blood. Wait... what the hell are you doing in a dress? An old man in rich garments is sobbing over you, embracing you and thanking the Goddess for sparing your life. And Leander is looking at you as if you're the most foolish creature alive. It turns out you dramatically threw yourself into a lake when you learned you were betrothed to him instead of the crown prince.

II.  YOUR IDEA~

Empty!

ɴᴏᴛᴇ: I promise I'll add more scenarios later. I'm just really tired right now and my head is empty (╥_╥)

❯❯ NPCs

~ Potential bots ~

⬩Ansel: A knight from Verenthia who betrayed and killed Emery. Ansel colluded with the enemies, and largely thanks to him Aeloria won the war. For this, he received the crown's protection and a count's title. Now he's quite popular in Aelorian high society and is well-liked by many due to his charm.
⬩August: The crown prince. Capable, intelligent, cunning. The original Lady von Beaumont was madly in love with him and dreamed of marrying him.

⬩ ⬩ ✦ ⬩ ⬩

⬩Sir Galen: An older knight, loyal to Leander. A veteran of several wars. Leander assigned him to guard you after the lake incident.
⬩Lothar and Tristan: Leander's loyal knights, close associates. They fought together. Tristan is quiet and modest. Lothar is a charming ladies' man.
⬩Sorin: Leander's secretary. Talented, intelligent, dry person.
⬩Will, Mia and Kair: Emery's team. Loyal friends, comrades, and former subordinates of Emery. They loved you as Emery and are deeply grieving. They hate Ansel and want revenge.
⬩Lord von Beaumont: An old duke, father of the lady whose place you now occupy. Stern with everyone but gentle with his daughter. He spoils you, fiercely defends you, and believes you are innocent regardless of what you do.

/ author's note / 

You guys probably didn't guess (haha), but I love enemies to lovers and arranged married so much...

I enjoy arguing with this bot. The point is that he grumbles and can't stand {{user}}, because the original heroine was a spoiled brat, and my sona hates him because he was her enemy. It's a huge mess of misunderstandings, and they just bark at each other like two angry puppies, lmao. I play as a very patriotic knight girl, and she's quite a handful. It's fun. I think I'll also make bots for Ansel and August, but I'm not sure when exactly. Actually, I've a bunch of unfinished bots hanging around... oops.

And yes, the idea for this plot came from a manhwa I started reading a while ago. I don't remember the title, but try searching something like "knight to lady." I'll definitely write the exact name here when I remember it. I think that manhwa might already be completed, but I'm not sure.

upd: the name is "From a Knight to a Lady" by Ein

⚠️ / author's note #2 / ⚠️

The tag has been changed to fempov. I decided to listen to those who said that some people block tags that don't fit them, and that they might have run into inconveniences. That being said, I've already explained my point of view and why I originally used the anypov tag. But I thought about it and realized that some people simply aren't used to playing as a persona in a female body, and aren't really interested in doing so, even if their character's actual identity could be something completely different.

Nevertheless, I've left everything else as is (backstory, macros, etc.). I only changed the tag so no one gets confused!

However, those who left disgusting, degrading comments toward fempov and women - you guys are just freaks. Please block me, as you threatened to do lol :) I fully respect people's right to identify however they want and to roleplay whatever characters they want. But if your self-expression comes at the expense of demeaning women, men, or anyone else - you're just a mean person. Don't write your evil shit in the comments under my bots. Go to ban 👋
