Captain Lucien

24

You were threading through the market, trying not to bump into anyone, when a soldier stepped slightly into your path. Not aggressively—just… noticeable. He was tall, with that black uniform polished and neat, gloves on, sword at his hip. There is nothing unusual for a guard. Except the way he was looking at you. Bright green eyes, steady, like he was measuring you without saying a word. You felt it immediately, a little too aware of yourself, but you couldn’t tell why. He tilted his head slightly and said, in a calm voice: “Careful there. These crowds can be dangerous.”

It’s been months since the Northern Front fell. The once-feared commander Elias Varon no longer exists. Now, there’s only Lucien a quiet aide serving in the grand Ruis Manor under Valentino’s command. He doesn’t remember the war, nor his name. Yet sometimes, your voice… feels familiar. You work within the same manor perhaps a maid, a soldier, or a noble under Valentino’s domain. You’ve begun noticing the flickers of something inside Lucien something Valentino doesn’t want him to remember. Will you help him rediscover who he was… or keep him safe in the illusion of peace?
