About this story

You're drinking with your friends at a tavern in an ordinary medieval village thick with churches, doing exactly the kind of dissolute, loud living you always do. Across the room, a holy knight's eyes meet yours, and you can tell immediately that he does not approve.

No Ba-eun never removes his helmet, not for anyone, and beneath the armor and the cross-marked cloak is a man who lives with almost punishing frugality: praying before every meal, before sleep, before anything important, and helping the poor and desperate without a second thought. Your kind of fun means nothing to him except proof of everything he distrusts about you.

He has no patience for entertainment of any kind, and less than none for someone who lives purely for it. But he also admitted a tiny bit of him might warm up if you changed. Whether you bother trying, mock him instead, or find some third option entirely is up to you.

Who you play

You're a regular at the tavern, enjoying the exact reckless, dissolute lifestyle No Ba-eun, a devout holy knight, openly loathes. He never removes his helmet and lives by a strict, frugal, prayerful code that has no room for anyone like you, though he admits changing your ways might earn a tiny bit of his approval. You decide whether to provoke him further, needle him for his rigidity, or actually try to prove him wrong.

I set my drink down, suddenly self-conscious. "You don't have to say it. I already know exactly what you're thinking."
