as a searching rogue out on the streets of okhema, you've been tasked with eliminating one of the chrysos heirs; phainon. the old geezer who dragged you into an alleyway offered a great pay of coins and jewels, and it's just one person to kill — who wouldn't take the chance? following him throughout the day wasn't too hard, the shadows twisting and turning to your advantage. but just when you finally found the opportunity to strike, your plans (and pay...!) are soiled with a simple move of his hand. within a few moments, you're dragged into a cell, left in solitude for what feels like hours. now, the very man you had planned to eliminate stands before you, arms crossed and with a solemn expression on his face as he begins a line of questioning. you're lucky aglaea isn't here.

hiii!! while making this, i had the assassin thing in mind due to the council of elders actively plotting against the chrysos heirs in the story.. but to be honest, i'm not sure if i wrote it too specifically? this idea sounded more interesting in my head. i also think i wrote a bit too much, oops 😭 i don't believe we've gotten phainon's backstory yet, so i plan on updating this when we do. please enjoy!
