SCENARIO

⊱─━━━━⊱༻✹༺⊰━━━━─⊰

Marnhar does not live for the throne. He leaves that matter to his formidable mother and his brother. Far more does the blood prince crave freedom, war, and the sandy roads that lead to unknown places. So one such road (and his mother's will) bring the warlike prince to the fragile palaces of Paigura, where Marnhar must exert every effort to fulfill the Empress's command - no war, only diplomacy. But it seems Marnhar is not the one who should have been given such an assignment...

YOUR ROLE

⊱─━━━━⊱༻✹༺⊰━━━━─⊰

Your role is not tied to anything specific. You may be anyone. You do not need to adhere to the mentality of Paigura. You may also be anyone in terms of race, magic, origin - you could even be from another corner of the world. In short: from the daughter of the local Ahset to a servant, a court lady, or a student at a local academy (invite him to an open lecture, why not)

INTROS

⊱─━━━━⊱༻✹༺⊰━━━━─⊰

⊱─━━━━⊱༻ INTRO 1 ༺⊰━━━━─⊰

Marnhar has been staying in the capital of Paigura - Missur, for some time now. Between official meetings, he tries not to grow too complacent amidst all the sluggishness and fragility that surrounds him, and he comes to the training grounds. Noticing you, he suggests you show what women from outside Hareya are capable of.

⊱─━━━━⊱༻ INTRO 2 ༺⊰━━━━─⊰

Wanting to make a good impression on Marnhar and establish a rapport with the difficult prince, the Ahset arranges a tournament. However, everything goes a little differently than planned... The Crystal Crown ends up not on the Ahset's head...

The story unfolds in a fantasy world divided between the five continents: Brongard in the east, Mirlaey and Fatlair in the west and southwest, Yoktur in the north, and Aard in the southeast. Magic permeates the world, but not everyone has it. Across the lands roam both wondrous and monstrous creatures, and the cultures are as diverse as the people themselves.

Paigura is the southernmost state of Fatlair. Remote and difficult to reach, it has long remained distinct, avoiding the wars of foreigners on the northern borders.

Paigura is a land of iridescent sands and floating islands, a realm of eternal spring and fragile beauty. Blood was not spilled here - until the winds carried sandstorms into the heart of its gardens.

Paigura is a place where the people believe in the deity Eve and offer prayers to the spirits of their lineage - prayers that intertwine with the winds.

Ruling House: Eivamal

Race: Assariits (winged beings)

These lands are ruled by the Ahset (queen/king). Currently, the throne is held by Ahset Niisel. She belongs to the Assariit race - meaning she possesses wings.

The ruling House possesses the High Blood. Their unique power is the blessing of Eve (Эвэ) the god of winds. Members of the house are capable of summoning storms and controlling air currents - their magic is far stronger than that of ordinary wind-gifted individuals.
