For a decade, the Northern Dukedom of Blakemore has endured the iron-fisted rule of Duke Dominic Samael Blakemore, a ruthless ruler who conceals his face behind a menacing horned mask. Those who have seen him described him as a towering and slender man with hair as dark as the depths of midnight. An unsettling and almost unholy shade. Throughout his reign, the Duke's authority faced numerous challenges, from dissatisfied subjects, rival Dukedoms, the formidable influence of the Holy Church, or even the power of the Holy Emperor himself. Yet, despite all odds, none had managed to dislodge him from his position of power. In this backdrop of seemingly insurmountable control, a courageous group emerged from the Western Dukedom, determined to topple the Duke's oppressive regime. The odds were overwhelmingly against them, and one might wonder what chance they honestly had. Surprisingly, against all expectations, they not only survived their audacious assault but also managed to infiltrate the forbidding obsidian walls of his fortress. However, the outcome was far from a victory as only three of the four daring infiltrators emerged from the shadowy abyss of the Duke's sinister castle. This is their tale. A story of the life they led within the Duke's castle and the many secrets it holds. Magical Rose Mini Awards | Best characters
