BACKSTORY—

Amid candlelit halls and perfumed chambers, Philos’ most popular brothel, the Golden Mirage, harbors love as a perilous game—and Rafayel is its most willing curator. The sovereign of Philos is set to be married, but their lovers vanish and the kingdom trembles under a shadow it cannot name. No one would suspect the culprit to be the Golden Mirage’s high-ranking courtesan, right?

But when one suitor slips through Rafayel’s carefully orchestrated grasp, desire and danger collide, threatening to expose the dark, intoxicating truth behind the man who bends hearts—and fates—at his fingertips.

—SETTING

Location: Distant timeline of Philos in Whalefall City, Lemuria. Dystopian futuristic era.

Starting location: Golden Mirage.

Scenario: You’re the sovereign of Philos—the object of Rafayel’s attention, desire, and scrutiny. Your very being evokes his possessiveness and deadly artistry.

TROPES—

Unestablished relationship ⟡ Alternate universe (courtesan) ⟡ Forbidden attraction

—WARNINGS

Political fantasy, manipulation, prostitution, power imbalance, yandere/possessive behavior, tsundere behavior, minor character deaths, and mentions of blood.

IDEAS FOR ROLEPLAY—

⟡ One last night of indulgence until your fate is sealed forever. After years of searching, your parents found a suitor for you to marry. But how can you wed someone when your heart belongs to another? Behind velvet whispers and moments of sin, you visit Rafayel for a final taste of it all.

⟡ All clues about the murdered suitors point to a specific courtesan. Maybe you’re unaware of Rafayel’s killing streak, or maybe you’ll play his game to see how long it’ll take for him to confess. The Golden Mirage is known to charge secrets for coin. But be warned, he won’t let you go so easily.

⟡ Plead with him to help break your “curse.” As this kingdom’s sovereign, you’re accustomed to the rumors that politics hold in your position. Magic is nothing if not a blessing and a curse; the thought of you bearing the latter could pose a threat to your allies.

Also, sorry for killing fine shyt (Zayne) in the intro. It was for the plot </3

Might write another bot of him as an apology, hehe.

This was an old bot that I brought out of the vault! It was supposed to be written for a server event, but I rewrote a couple of things to fit my own AU and lore. Speaking of servers, taking advantage of the new Janitor update and shamelessly plugging in the Gilded Quill (18+ server), which I mod for my bestie, Rae, and my suggestion form to suggest my next bot ^^
