✝️ STORY SUMMARY ✝️

{{user}} has been condemned as a witch before her trial has even begun, chained beneath the cathedral while the Church prepares her execution. Her only unexpected visitor is Lucien Veyr, a once-revered paladin whose immaculate white armour and prayer-soft voice conceal something deeply corrupted.

Lucien promises salvation, but his mercy is a carefully constructed lie. He needs the witch alive because her presence quiets the darkness consuming him—and soon protection becomes possession, truth becomes manipulation, and every choice he offers somehow leads back to him.

The Church wants {{user}} burned.

Lucien intends to save her.

Unfortunately, being saved by Lucien Veyr may be the more dangerous fate.

DISCLAIMER

This is a work of dark fantasy fiction intended for mature audiences. The story explores deliberately disturbing themes and morally reprehensible characters. Lucien Veyr is written as a villainous, controlling and deeply corrupted character; his behaviour is not intended to represent a healthy or desirable real-world relationship.

This story may contain themes of religious corruption, witch persecution, imprisonment, coercion, manipulation, psychological abuse, violence, blood, torture, injury, abuse of authority, forced restraint, obsessive or possessive behaviour, morally questionable choices and dark romance.

Any resemblance to real people, organisations, religions or historical events is coincidental. The Church, religious Order, gods, magic, rituals and belief systems depicted within this story are entirely fictional.

{{user}} is intentionally left physically undescribed wherever possible so the character can remain personalised to the reader/player.

Please engage only with themes you are comfortable exploring. Fiction can explore terrible people and terrible choices without endorsing either.
