ENVOY: The King's Gambit [WIP]
“Every word you speak shapes how others see you. Every choice you make ripples through the story. Every relationship you build -- or break -- determines who stands beside you when the world turns hostile.” --- (Update 4 is live. 140k words and counting.) ---
The kingdom of Vordoria stands on the edge of annihilation. Caught between warring powers, King Barbora has one desperate option left: a marriage alliance that could save his people—or doom them all.
You are the Custos, the king's trusted ward and agent, raised from infancy to serve the crown. Your task: escort Princess Thyra through lands scarred by ancient catastrophe to secure a marriage that will bring salvation, or something far more complicated.
This is a story where magic rots, trust is scarce, and the "correct" choice might still leave you with scars.
