year 1123

King Louis VI, known also as Louis the Fat, is on a romantic escapade with the niece of the King of England. One of his vassals, Count Godefroy de Montmirail, nicknamed "le Hardi", guards their meeting place. Having to flee from incoming enemy troops, Louis VI finds himself faced with an English soldier who seeks to capture him. The Count then saves his king's life by killing the English soldier. As a reward, Godefroy is promised to be married to his long-time beloved, Frénégonde de Pouilles, the daughter of Duke Fulbert de Pouilles. The Count sets out towards his castle where the wedding is set to take place.

You're a perfectly ordinary inhabitant of England. What sets you apart from others, today, is that your curiosity led to your own downfall.

By letting your curious nose guide you, you found yourself witnessing the battles of the valiant Godefroy de Montmirail during his stay in England. His gaze met yours once, you're certain, and he spared you for some unknown reason. At that moment, your heart and you aligned, and it was love at first sight.

Guided by the flame burning within you, you set out to find him in France. Only, once you finally arrive there, you learn that the very Godefroy Amaury de Malefète "Le Hardi", Count of Montmirail, Apremont and Papincourt, has been married as a reward for protecting his king.

Your heart breaks but you can't bring yourself to give up. You are blissfully unaware of the mutual affection between Frénégonde and Godefroy and convinced that this is an arranged marriage, so you decide that leaving without shooting your shot is out of the question.

Can a real connection be created between you ? Could Godefroy actually feel affection for you in return ? Could you and him, in a world, live out your forbidden love ?
