<<button "Increase Time">><<increasetime 1>><</button>> <<button "Skip Day">><<skipday>><</button>> Landlocked between four different nations, your kingdom has always had strenious relations with their neighbors. Recently, things have gotten worse when the large empire to the east, Kartos, has landlocked between other kingdoms and a large empire to the west. Your kingdom is in dire threat of being attacked by the big empire, the only thing that could save you is a new alliance with one of the neighboring kingdoms. Your father wrote you that marriage would be the best solution but all the neighboring kingdoms only have eligible princes, and not a princess for you to marry. With this looming threat of war you would do anything to save my kingdom but you can't simply marry a prince, that wouldn't work. You're a prince, not a princess! Soon this problem became known throughout most of the kingdom. Everyone was speaking of your failure to create an alliance. One day a witch came to your court and offered a solution. She offered a magic potion and said you should drink it. All she said is that it would change you and solve all your problems... You drank the potion and the next morning you looked in the mirror and saw that you body has changed... you voice has changed, so did your face, eyes, and so has your cock, it is even smaller than it was before, you look like a girl now. And this was just the beginning...

Before you stands several pillars with different artifacts laid out on top of them. It seems like ?Leopold has already made a selection for you to pick from. <<artifacts true>> <<decision 'Return' 'Treasury'>><</decision>>

<<img 'artifacts/chalk.jpg' 'ridge-border' '12em'>> On one of the pedestals lies a small pile of yellow colored chalk sticks. You grab one of the sticks and inspect it, you definitely feel a magic glowing from the chalk. <<leopold>>Oh the chalk has taken your interest? It's quite fascinating stuff.<</leopold>> <<player>>What does it do?<</player>> ?Leopold walks next to you and grabs another chalk stick from the pile. <<leopold>>It's quite useful actually, when used to draw two circles of specific glyphs on the floor it allows a person to teleport between the two circles.<</leopold>> <<player>>You're saying this chalk allows us to teleport ourselves? That sounds really useful!<</player>> <<leopold>>What's even better is that the chalk seems to automatically regenerate itself after usage so there's not really a fear of running out.<</leopold>> <<player>>Why aren't we using this stuff for everything?<</player>> <<leopold>>Well for one, the circles can only be bound to one person at a time so it really doesn't work for mass transportation and besides, your father never quite trusted the stuff, ordering it to stay in the vault. ?Morgana assured me there's nothing to be scared off though, it should be completely safe.<</leopold>> <<leopold>>Do you wish to take this artifact as your reward?<</leopold>> <<decision 'Pick this artifact'>> <<player>>Yes, I would love to keep this one, it seems quite interesting.<</player>> <<leopold>>Very good, ?title. Be sure to take good care of it.<</leopold>> ?Leopold leads you out of the vault again, now that you have received your reward. You hear the large metal vault door close behind you with a heavy thud. <<decision 'Leave' 'Treasury'>> <<completequest 'retrieve-artifact'>> <<addtag 'has-artifact'>> <<run $artifacts.chalk.unlocked = true>> <</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Look at the other artifacts' 'Artifacts Selection'>> <</decision>>

<<img 'artifacts/sword.jpg' 'ridge-border' '12em'>> The pedestal in the middle is holding some kind of sword. It looks quite slim and almost transparent in a way. Once you get closer it almost looks like the wind itself is merging with the blade of this sword. <<leopold>>You're looking at ?sword. A legendary blade that came into your father's possession after raiding a wealthy keep almost a decade ago.<</leopold>> <<if hasRead('duel') and hasCompletedQuest('wymerus-book')>> Wait, this is the sword that ?Wymerus was talking about! The one used by Lord Lysander in the book you found in the library! You can take the sword and bring it to ?Wymerus to learn how to use it. <<player>>This is the sword that belonged to Lord Lysander. I have read about it.<</player>> <<leopold>>Ah good, then you know of it's importance. If this artifact interests you I reckon you could take it to ?Wymerus. He is more than willing to teach you how to use it.<</leopold>> <<decision 'Pick this artifact'>> <<player>>Yes, I would love to keep this one, it seems quite interesting.<</player>> <<leopold>>Very good, ?title. Be sure to take good care of it.<</leopold>> ?Leopold leads you out of the vault again, now that you have received your reward. You hear the large metal vault door close behind you with a heavy thud. <<decision 'Leave' 'Treasury'>> <<completequest 'retrieve-artifact'>> <<addtag 'has-artifact'>> <<startquest wymerus-sword>> <<run $artifacts.sword.unlocked = true>> <</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Look at the other artifacts' 'Artifacts Selection'>> <</decision>> <<else>> You move your hand over to the hilt of the sword but before you can touch it ?Leopold stops you. <<leopold>>Careful, ?title. This is a dangerous weapon. You know how your father gets over his mythical swords. I'm willing to give the sword to you but only if you understand it's importance.<</leopold>> You look at him with a questioning look. <<leopold>>?Title, can you tell me who this sword once belonged to?<</leopold>> If ?Leopold is hinting at someone specific you must admit you have no idea who he means. <<player>>I have no clue, ?Leopold.<</player>> <<leopold>>I'm afraid I cannot give the sword to you then, your father simply wouldn't approve of it then. If you wish to learn about the history of the sword, I'm quite certain there's a book in the library that mentions it.<</leopold>> You back off the sword and focus your attention on the other artifacts again. <<decision 'Look at the other artifacts' 'Artifacts Selection'>> <</decision>> <</if>>

<<img 'artifacts/mirror.jpg' 'ridge-border' '12em'>> You walk up to the full-length mirror standing next to the other artifacts. The intricate golden frame looks beautiful in a very chaotic way. <<leopold>>That mirror has some magical capabilities. ?Morgana told me it is able to show you how your body has changed in a recent time frame.<</leopold>> You are slightly anxious about immediately staring into the mirror when ?Leopold says that so you instead just look at him as he explains what the mirror is. <<leopold>>Supposedly the mirror has stood in the personal quarters of important aristocrats who wanted to ensure they were not gaining weight.<</leopold>> <<leopold>>Not that you really need to worry about that, ?title. But perhaps it could be a good fit for your room regardless.<</leopold>> <<decision 'Pick this artifact'>> <<player>>Yes, I would love to keep this one, it seems quite interesting.<</player>> <<leopold>>Very good, ?title. I will have the mirror delivered to your room. Be sure to take good care of it.<</leopold>> ?Leopold leads you out of the vault again, now that you have received your reward. You hear the large metal vault door close behind you with a heavy thud. <<decision 'Leave' 'Treasury'>> <<completequest 'retrieve-artifact'>> <<addtag 'has-artifact'>> <<run $artifacts.mirror.unlocked = true>> <</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Look at the other artifacts' 'Artifacts Selection'>> <</decision>>

<<img 'artifacts/book.jpg' 'ridge-border' '12em'>> There is a large book lying on one of the pedestals, it's wrapped in brown leather. It seems to be missing a title on the front. <<leopold>>Ah yes, that's a magical book which belonged to ?Godric. He left it in his study and we have since moved it to the vault here. He supposedly kept his private notes in there.<</leopold>> <<player>>That seems mysterious, has anyone investigated it?<</player>> <<leopold>>Not as far as I know, I did hear from ?Morgana you took an interesting in her magics. I thought perhaps this book might be useful to you, there might be something important in there.<</leopold>> <<leopold>>All I know is that the book requires some sort of passcode for it to display certain entries, feel free to take it as your reward if you're interested.<</leopold>> It definitely seems like there's more going on with this book... <<decision 'Pick this artifact'>> <<player>>Yes, I would love to keep this one, it seems quite interesting.<</player>> <<leopold>>Very good, ?title. Be sure to take good care of it.<</leopold>> ?Leopold leads you out of the vault again, now that you have received your reward. You hear the large metal vault door close behind you with a heavy thud. <<decision 'Leave' 'Treasury'>> <<completequest 'retrieve-artifact'>> <<addtag 'has-artifact'>> <<run $artifacts.book.unlocked = true>> <</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Look at the other artifacts' 'Artifacts Selection'>> <</decision>>

<<img 'artifacts/orb.jpg' 'ridge-border' '12em'>> On top of the pedestal, a crystal orb is resting on a velvet pillow. Inside it you can see a swirling mass which almost seems to be expanding as you come closer. The swirling blue light inside of it intrigues you. <<leopold>>Beautiful, isn't it? It's called the Orb of Scrying.<</leopold>> You look at him with a puzzled expression. <<player>>Orb of Scrying... What does it do?<</player>> <<leopold>>If you hold your hand on the orb while closing your eyes and focusing your mind on a person, the orb will let you watch them through magical means.<</leopold>> <<player>>What? That is extremely useful! There must be some kind of drawback to this, it seems too good to just work like that.<</player>> <<leopold>>Well, yes, there are a few. Firstly, you can only spy on people that you personally know... And secondly...<</leopold>> ?Leopold seems to shuffle awkwardly and suddenly avoids eye contact. You look at him slightly confused getting curious about what he's going to say next. There's a short pause before he continues his explanation. <<leopold>>Uhm, well, the orb will only work if the person you are observing is currently in an <i>aroused</i> state...<</leopold>> You blush as you instantly feel slightly awkward as well. <<player>>Oh, I see... Well, I suppose it could still be useful...<</player>> <<leopold>>Perhaps, yes... It is a Royal artifact and therefor it is not my place to judge that, ?title.<</leopold>> <<player>>Right. Well, thanks for the information, ?Leopold.<</player>> It seems like the orb is really only useful for one thing. Though it's morally probably not a great idea, the thought of spying on people in private moments using a magical artifact does seem enticing... <<decision 'Pick this artifact'>> <<player>>Yes, I would love to keep this one, it seems quite interesting.<</player>> <<leopold>>Very good, ?title. Be sure to take good care of it.<</leopold>> ?Leopold leads you out of the vault again, now that you have received your reward. You hear the large metal vault door close behind you with a heavy thud. <<decision 'Leave' 'Treasury'>> <<completequest 'retrieve-artifact'>> <<addtag 'has-artifact'>> <<run $artifacts.orb.unlocked = true>> <</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Look at the other artifacts' 'Artifacts Selection'>> <</decision>>

<<img 'artifacts/book.jpg' 'ridge-border' '12em'>>

<<img 'artifacts/chalk.jpg' 'ridge-border' '12em'>> You grab the chalk and feel the magical power emitted from the powdery stick as you hold it. Like ?Leopold told you, the blue chalk can be used to draw a pair of teleportation circles on the floor, binding them together and allowing you to warp between the circles. This is the closest thing to magic you have ever done.?nl You can simply take the chalk and start drawing on the floor, the first one you draw in your bedroom and the next one can be placed at any location you want.?nl <<if $artifacts.chalk.drawing>> You are currently drawing a new teleportation circle, go to another location to draw the second circle there. <<elseif $artifacts.chalk.location>> <<decision `'Teleport to the ' + $artifacts.chalk.location`>> <<script>> Engine.play("Magic Circle"); <</script>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Draw a new teleportation circle' 'Bedroom'>> <<run $artifacts.chalk.location = null>> <<run $artifacts.chalk.drawing = true>> <<run $closedareas.pushUnique("Magic Circle")>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Remove the teleportation circle' 'Bedroom'>> <<run $artifacts.chalk.location = null>> <<run $closedareas.pushUnique("Magic Circle")>> <</decision>> <<else>> <<decision 'Draw a teleportation circle' 'Bedroom'>> <<run $artifacts.chalk.location = null>> <<run $artifacts.chalk.drawing = true>> <<run $closedareas.pushUnique("Magic Circle")>> <</decision>> <</if>> <<decision 'Go back' 'Bedroom'>> <</decision>> /* :: Magic Circle <<if not tags($artifacts.chalk.location).includes('castle')>> <<include 'Outfit Disguise'>> <</if>> <<goto $artifacts.chalk.location>> <<effect flash "rgba(250, 241, 77, 0.5)" 400>> */

<<img 'artifacts/mirror.jpg' 'ridge-border' '12em'>> You stare into the mirror and let the magic look through your body. Supposedly it can analyse the recent changes to your form and show them to you.?nl You feel the magic of the mirror wash over you. You see your own image reflected in many different ways, focusing on specific body parts in rapid succession. Even though you are wearing clothes right now, some reflections are of your naked body.?nl The mirror shows you, the young adult prince with brown hair and green eyes. The hopeful look in your eyes and finely sewn princely outfits.?nl <<if hasCompletedQuest('morgana-ointment')>> The mirror shows you that your skin has become significantly smoother now that you've used the ointment ?Morgana gave you.?nl <</if>> <<if $player.status is 'egg'>> The mirror focuses specifically on showing you changes that recently happened after you drank the potion. You hair has grown longer, your waist has grown slimmer and your ass has grown slightly. Your shoulders have slimmed and your muscle mass has moved slightly around in your body, turning a slightly more feminine form. Your lips have grown fuller and your eye lashes seem to have grown as well. Your chest has grown more profound.?nl <</if>> <<if getStat('masculinity') > 95>> The mirror shows your manly body. Your clear jawline and strong arms. It shows the lean bod you have acquired from your workout sessions. It feels good to see yourself getting the acknowledgement you deserve.?nl <</if>> <<if hasEquipmentTag('chastity') and settings.sph>> The mirror suddenly reflects your ?dick very clearly.

<<setlocation 'Dungeons'>> <<addcounter 'sybille-night' 2>> Honing your mind towards the dungeons, the orb locates ?Sybille. The white of her hair shines in stark contrast to the darkness of the dungeon. She seems to be in her room, and in the process of changing. You notice her normal black dress lies neatly folded on a chair next to her, before your gaze pans to take in the bareness of her form. Though you've always thought her complexion rather pallid, in the warm glow of her hearth you must admit she looks as radiant as an angel.?nl Her back is turned to you, giving you a marvelous view of her ass. You focus your mind futher, trying to get a closer look. ?Sybille bends over to pull her leather suit onto her legs, and you see what has allowed the orb to atune to her so readily. Though she has yet to begin her nightly interrogations, you can clearly see her wetness practically dripping down her legs. Though you were well aware of her... <i>methods</i>... she is always so professional with you and the council that it is easy to forget <i>this</i> side of her.?nl As she pulls the suit up over her hips, she turns towards a nearby table, highlighting the immaculate curvature of her breasts in the dim fire light. Given the nature of her work she is always two steps ahead, so the idea of having caught her unaware is electrifying...?nl Continuing to slide the suit over her ample chest, you could swear you see a self-satisfied smirk as she surveys the contents of the table before her. Having finished donning her dominatrix outfit, now an angel of darkness, she grabs the key and riding crop from the table. The anticipation of what she has in store for her prisoners tonight leaves you with an unshakable feeling in the pit of your stomach - maybe excitement, maybe fear, maybe jealousy, definitely arousal.?nl <<img "sybille/sybille_dominatrix_{theme}.jpg">> <<sybille>>Lets see if we can't break someone's will tonight...<</sybille>> Sybille walks deliberately out of her quarters and into the hallway towards the cells. <<sybille>>Now, which one of you wretches wants my attention most tonight?<</sybille>> You feel the orb's connection to ?Sybille begin to waver as she moves further down the hall. You can feel the anticipation of the prisoners as she passes their cells, the orb's magic distorting with the sheer concentration of their arousal. The scene is not dissimilar to watching an apex preditor toy with its meal. <<say 'Prisoner'>>Please Mistress! <em>Pick me</em>! I will tell you what I know! I will do anything for you! Just please, <i>touch me<i>, <i><strong>break me</strong></i>!<</say>> Your vision blurs sharply, the prisoner's desperation and arousal overwhelming the orb's magic. Your connection is strained to breaking, but you can still clearly hear ?Sybille's strong, confident voice echoing through the dungeon. <<sybille>>Well, well, well. It seems I have an <i>eager</i> volunteer, and one that has finally learned her place... Good little prisoner.<</sybille>> The orb can no longer maintain an image, and your body reacts by automatically heightening your other senses. With the image now faded, you now consciously notice how every muscle in your body was tightly clenched, ready to pounce - or flee? Though you can no longer make out any discernable image, you get the mental impression of ?Sybille with a wicked grin on her face as she enters the cell.?nl Your world narrows to just the echoes of the prisoner's muffled cries of pleasure and pain as she begins her work, transmitted by the last dregs of the orb's magic. A final static bolt runs down your spine, lingering for a moment until your brain regains control over your nervous system. Did you narrowly escaped the notice of a predator, or did your prey just narrowly escape your grasp? <<disable hasEquipmentTag('chastity')>> <<decision 'Masturbate, imagining yourself as a prisoner' submissiveness medium>> Using the memory of ?Sybille tormenting her prisoners, you imagine the feeling of being restrained by someone else, your own orgasm not yours to control...

<<setlocation 'Barracks'>> <<addcounter 'sergeant-night' 2>> As you focus your thoughts towards ?Sergeant, the image the orb produces is initially quite blurry. As the orb focuses in on her arousal, you can begin make out the sergeant's sparsely-furnished quarters. In the flickering torch light you recognize ?Sergeant, laying back on her bed with a soldier kneeling between her legs. /* <<img "sergeant/quarters_soldier_licking_{theme}.jpg">> */ <<first>> <<finally>> The soldiers all look alike to you, but you could swear this is a different guy than last time... <</first>> <<sergeant>>Come on, work that tongue soldier! Do you want to be the disappointment of the entire garrison? I know you've got more in you so <i>give it to me</i>, that is an order!<</sergeant>> You watch as the hapless soldier continues to lick her pussy. You hear a low, distant droning sound and focus on it more closely... Yep, he's humming the ABCs to himself as he licks through the alphabet.?nl You can't help but feel a little bad for ?Sergeant, if you didn't know better you'd say the soldier was teasing her on purpose. For her part, the sergeant seems to be losing both patience and arousal. The orb's picture momentarily dissolves into a milky kaleidoscope of multi-color clouds, before refocusing on the exhasperated, near desperate face of the sergeant. <<sergeant>>Seriously, is that the best you've got? Put in some effort!<</sergeant>> Frustrated, she grabs the hapless soldier's head and starts grinding against his mouth. You didn't know what you were expecting, but you were certainly caught off guard by how roughly she handled him, though honestly you are kind of into it.?nl You notice sweat beads beginning to form and roll off of her toned abs. She grabs his hair, man-handling him as she tries to find stimulation for her clit. As she hunts her orgasm, you find yourself entranced by the carnal rhythm of her breasts in the low torchlight.?nl Suddenly, the vibrance of that same torchlight seems to flare as the orb senses her approaching climax. The soldier was struggling to breath, but as he tries to retreat she wraps her legs around his head, holding his mouth against her sopping hole while she bites her lip and continues to grind into him. <<sergeant>>Fuck... So close...<</sergeant>> ?Sergeant bucks her hips, riding out and trying to extend an ultimately disappointing finish. She eventually releases the soldier who gratefully gasps for air. As he recovers, he seems to look expectantly at the her. <<sergeant>>You must have lost your mind if you think that performance was worthy of a reward, soldier. I've trained you better than that; you'll be on cleaning duty until that form improves. Dismissed!<</sergeant>> You watch as the soldier quickly grabs his clothing and leaves the room, head hung in defeat. As your view begins to dim, as her afterglow fades, you take this opportunity to study the sergeant's splayed form... <<include 'Artifact orb Masturbate'>>

<<setlocation 'Workshop'>> As you're holding the magical orb and focus your mind on ?Morgana, you find that the orb is struggling to produce a clear image. You can slightly make out the surroundings of her workshop. A very vague silhouette of the sorceress appears but you can't seem to see more than that. You wonder if the orb is working badly because she's not currently aroused but that theory is quickly proven wrong as you suddenly her ?Morgana moaning loudly.?nl You try to survey the area but it feels like navigating a thick fog. You get the sense that there's nobody else here... Does that mean she's masturbating alone in her workshop?... The more you try to observe of her form performing a devious activity, the more blurry the image becomes. Soon, the orb seems unable to show any visual reflection at all while you continue to hear her moaning. It looks like ?Morgana has some kind of warding magic to counteract your attempts at spying on her... <<decision 'Return' 'Artifact orb'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Grand hall'>> You decide it might be fun to spy on ?Andreas for a bit. You actually have no idea what he gets up to at night. As you focus your mind on him, the orb shows you the image of the grand hall.?nl The hearth is burning softly next to ?Andreas's desk as you see him setting there, reading through documents and writing a letter. He's still working this late at night? You take another good look around but spot nothing out of the ordinary, ?Andreas is simply spending his evening fulfilling his duties as chancellor. Although this peeping session is much less interesting than you hoped, it feels good to see ?Andreas's diligence here. You feel that you're lucky to have him as your mentor and chancellor. <<decision 'Return' 'Artifact orb'>><</decision>>

<<changeschedule leopold 'night' 'None'>> <<addcounter 'leopold-night' 2>> <<disablemusic>> <<setlocation 'Treasury'>> <<addtag 'leopold-jade-blowjob'>> Instead of trying to spy on ?Leopold again the old fashioned way, why not spy on him the magical way and finally figure out who the mysterious blowjob person is? A genius plan!?nl You focus your mind on ?Leopold and are instantly transported to the treasury. It seems like ?Leopold is quite aroused, seeing how quickly the orb was able to locate him. You look around through your glass ball and once again make out his form sitting behind the desk, except you are looking much closer this time.?nl His lustful state is not really apparent when you are observing him, it seems like he's simply working behind his desk. As you focus your attention on him it becomes apparent that the things he's writing down on a piece of parchment are completely unintelligible. Is he pretending to be working? Curiously, you now notice he's actually softly moaning and you also see his strange posture sitting behind the desk. Heh, looks like he's enjoying another late night blowjob by his mysterious benefactor.?nl Indeed, the soft wet sounds coming from under the desk now become more apparent to you. You currently can't make out anything of the person under the desk as ?Leopold is completely obscuring the view. You wonder whether doing these things while pretending to work is some kind of extra turn on for him... <<leopold>>Ah, good... Keep going just like that while I finish this paperwork...<</leopold>> Is this some kind of role-playing to him? <<leopold>>A- almost have this balance sheet done... So close now...<</leopold>> Even though you're very far from understanding all of ?Leopold's stewardship lessons, you're pretty damn sure he's not working on anything remotely related to a balance sheet. The hidden service provider seems to take the message though as the slurping sound coming from below becomes louder and louder. They're clearly speeding up now. ?Leopold seems unable to contain his feeling, letting go of his pretending role for a moment as he lets out an intense groan, clearly enjoying a strong orgasm. <<leopold>>Ahhh! Great jeweled riches, that was wonderful!<</leopold>> ?Leopold lets out a loud blissful sigh before he scoots back and looks down below his desk. <<if settings.cum>> <<leopold>>Remember, I paid extra for you to <i>keep the change</i>.<</leopold>> For some reason he's speaking with a strange emphasis and a sly smile. The meaning of his words only dawn on you the moment you hear an audible gulp coming from the darkness beneath the table. ?Leopold gives an approving nod and continues to speak in a satisfied demeanor. <</if>> <<leopold>>You are really talented, consider me a happy customer. I am definitely interested in hiring your services again in the future...<</leopold>> Hiring them? You had no idea that the person that ?Leopold invited here every time is someone who is paid to do so. This explains so much but creates a whole load of new questions. Your mind is going crazy, unintentionally thinking of new theories on who this mysterious person could be. Is it anyone you know? As you're processing the whole situation, ?Leopold suddenly sticks out a hand to help the unknown person out from under the desk. A slender arm reaches out to meet him. You feel your heart thumping as you're finally going to learn the answer to this big question... <<decision 'Watch excitedly' 'Artifact orb spy Leopold 2'>> <</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Bedroom'>> You vaguely see a form crawl out from under the desk. You're so excitedly observing what happens next that you don't even realise the vision is getting gradually darker, the usual sign that the orb will soon stop working as there's no longer any aroused energy on the other side that it requires to function.?nl The timing of this couldn't be worse as the moment that you try to focus on the person, the orb suddenly stops working. Flabbergasted, you immediately let out an annoyed shout. <<player>>What? No! You can't be serious!<</player>> You're not sure if the orb is playing with you or something but you can't believe that after all this you still have no idea who the person is that's servicing ?Leopold so often... At least you have now learned that they are actually hired by ?Leopold to do this sort of thing. That's a small step forward, you guess... You begrudgingly decide to leave it for what it is and just head to bed with an annoyed feeling. <<decision 'Sleep' 'Bedtime'>><</decision>>

<<changeschedule kathryn 'night' 'None'>> <<addcounter 'kathryn-night' 2>> <<disablemusic>> <<setlocation 'Garden'>> As you focus your attention on ?Kathryn, you get a glimpse of the gazebo out in the castle gardens. You see ?Kathryn and this nobleman make out quite passionately while sitting next to each other. The man starts to grope her through her red dress, fondling her breasts while sticking his tongue in her mouth.?nl She starts to take off the top part of her dress, freeing her ample breasts to the open garden at night. You must say the look is quite stunning. <<img "kathryn/garden_peeking_{theme}.jpg">> <<say `getNoble()`>><<name kathryn 'Lady'>>... You are so beautiful...<</say>> You're actually quite jealous of what this nobleman is doing to her. While making out, they passionately embrace each other. Their bodies are completely intertwined on this bench outside in the garden. The nobleman slowly starts to grind his groin into her, sending a very clear message. <<kathryn>>Ah... <<noble>>... Please continue...<</kathryn>> The nobleman seems to accept the invitation as he's fumbling with his belt and subsequently starts lowering his trousers, revealing his fully erect member.<<if settings.sph>> You think you finally spot the reason ?Kathryn chose this man in particular as he's presenting a very respectably sized cock, it's definitely much bigger than your ?dick.<</if>>?nl ?Kathryn lustfully raises the skirt part of her dress, opening the way for him. You get a good view of ?Kathryn's exposed private parts, it looks like she wasn't even wearing any panties under her dress, probably counting on the night leading to this exact moment.?nl Her pussy seems visibly wet as you see <<noble>> align his cock with her opening. They make intense eye contact as he slowly starts pushing into her. The moment that he enters her, ?Kathryn starts loudly moaning, not seeming to think about the fact they're outside on a gazebo bench and anyone could spot them. <<kathryn>>Ah fuck... Yes... Take me, <<noble>>... Fuck me with your big dick...<</kathryn>> The man seems to really enjoy the feeling of being inside of her, he starts pumping in and out of her faster and faster. Their intense love-making is combined with passionate kisses before the nobleman starts to speed up even more. ?Kathryn suddenly holds him with a flared-up intensity. <<kathryn>>Keep going just like that... I'm getting close... Fuck!<</kathryn>> He seems to follow her commands exactly, fucking her with the exact same intensity and letting her relish the moment. This seems to quickly bring ?Kathryn over the edge as she arches her back and lets out an intense moan. <<kathryn>>I'm cumming! <<if settings.sph>>Your big cock is<<else>>You are<</if>> making me cum, <<noble>>!<</kathryn>> <<if settings.sph>> Hearing ?Kathryn focus so much on the size of his cock is making you feel strange about your own much more modestly sized penis... You know for a fact you couldn't bring her to orgasm with your ?dick, like the nobleman is doing right now. Could you even satisfy her at all??nl <</if>> ?Kathryn is very clearly enjoying an intense orgasm. This very quickly brings <<noble>> to the edge as well. He's loudly panting as he suddenly pulls out of her and starts quickly stroking his cock, aimed at her bare breasts. Even though she's recovering from the heavy climax, she suddenly reaches over and forcibly turns the nobleman sideways, nudging him to aim his cock to the ground instead of on her. It seems like she would prefer that he doesn't stain her dress like that.?nl The man is grunting loudly, letting her take charge as she expertly uses her hand to help him reach his climax. He starts moaning as you see him reach his orgasm as well.?nl <<if settings.cum>> Even though it wasn't her intention at all, by pure happenstance in redirecting the nobleman's discharge it looks like he's now aimed directly towards you from your orb's perspective. You see his cock erupt with several vivid spurts of white strands flying directly towards your point of view. It almost feels like ?Kathryn wanted you to catch his cum for her, you imagine her guiding him to shoot it all over your face instead of the gazebo floor. For some reason you instinctively close your eyes and even open your mouth slightly...?nl You quickly snap yourself out of it, this strange event is nothing more than a coincidence. There's no way ?Kathryn knows you would be watching them, but the thought of her doing something like this for real makes you feel quite... Well...

Today's lesson is definitely one of the more boring ones. ?andreas takes you through all sorts of written agreements that are important to the kingdom, from international treaties to contracts between landowners. He tries to explain the nuances described in the texts but by the end of the lesson you can't even keep all the documents apart anymore.

Today, ?andreas talks about how to lead meetings and make sure intricate conversations stay on point. Even though normally you would be the one to lead the council meetings in your father's absence, ?andreas has been given that role because of his experience. He gives you tips on how to be a neutral leader in these discussions and giving everyone time and space to share their opinions.

For this lesson, ?andreas decided it's a good time to learn about diplomacy as he takes you with him to a meeting. There you find several diplomats from a neighboring kingdom waiting to meet with <<name andreas 'Chancellor'>>. He told you to sit in and observe while he welcomes the diplomats and converses with them. The discussions last for quite a while but you feel like you learned a lot.

You see <<name wymerus>> walking over to <<name caspar>>, who is kneeled on the floor. You can already see the massive bulge <<name wymerus>> is packing while he fumbles with his belt and unleases his big cock. You hear a smacking sound as it immediately hits <<name caspar>> in the face. <<wymerus>>Clean my big sword for me, my squire. Why don't you use your mouth again?<</wymerus>> Without hesitation, <<name caspar>> takes his cock in his mouth and starts slobering over his shaft. <<if settings.vids>> <<video "caspar/caspar_blowjob.webm">> <<else>> <<img "caspar/peeping_blowjob_{theme}.jpg">> <</if>> You notice <<name caspar>> takes out his own much smaller penis and starts masturbating while servicing the lord.

We've had quite a long training session today and I'm all sweaty now.<</wymerus>> <<name caspar>> takes the cock out of his mouth and slowly massages it while looking up at his master. <<caspar>>I'm sorry my lord, I'm your squire and of course I will do anything to make sure your sword is nice and clean.

They've completely forgotten to mind their secrecy as you can hear the lord loudly grunting while pumping his massive cock in and out of his mouth.?nl <<name caspar>> is completely relaxed as he lets his mouth be used by his knight. After a little while you notice the situation he finds himself in is turning him on too much and he starts masturbating his little dick again while being face-fucked.?nl Shortly later the lord starts pumping faster and faster, suddenly he shoves his cock in all the way to the base, holding it there. His balls slapping against <<name caspar>>'s chin as <<name wymerus>> loudly grunts and presumably deposits all his cum down his squire's throat. While his mouth and throat is completely filled with cock and cum, you can somehow still hear <<name caspar>> moan as he faps his dick faster and faster before cumming on the courtyard floor, letting out a few white strands of cum from his penis.?nl <<name wymerus>> leaves his cock in his squire's mouth for a bit before taking it out. A thick strain of cum connects the cock-head to <<name caspar>>'s lips. The young squire makes sure there is no cum left on his master's tool before giving the cock a wet kiss and looking up to him to say thanks for letting him provide service.?nl

You see <<name wymerus>> and <<name caspar>> standing next to a training dummy. You can hear a slight argument happening as they're discussing training exercises. <<caspar>>My lord, you know I would do anything for you but what I simply mean to say is- aah<</caspar>> The squire is interrupted as <<name wymerus>> suddenly grabs him, flips him around and bends him over. <<wymerus>>Enough of this back-talk, let me remind you exactly who the squire is and who the knight is.<</wymerus>> <<name caspar>> leans against the training dummy as <<name wymerus>> rips down his pants, revealing his bare ass.

Please fuck me hard, my lord!<</caspar>> <<if settings.vids>> <<video "caspar/caspar_doggy2.webm">> <</if>> The young squire is bent over, holding on to the training dummy with both hands while he is being railed from behind. The lord grunts louder and louder and you can definitely make out the sound of his balls slapping. After this goes on for a while, <<name wymerus>> speeds up and suddenly pulls out of his squire's ass. <<name caspar>> immediately turns around and kneels down, he opens his mouth and sticks out his tongue. <<wymerus>>Show me how good of a squire you are.<</wymerus>> The lord is masturbating his cock, aimed at <<name caspar>>'s face when you see thick ropes of cum flying all over the squire's face and onto his tongue. His curly red hair is covered with white cum and he holds one of his eyes closed. <<name caspar>> shows his master what landed in his mouth, proceeds to swallow it and now shows his empty mouth with a proud smile. <<if settings.vids>> <<video "caspar/caspar_facial.webm">> <</if>> <<wymerus>> Well done, boy. Now, you're not allowed to clean that up yet, I enjoy seeing you walk around while I marked my territory all over your face.<</wymerus>>

From your peeping place you can see <<name caspar>> standing over <<name wymerus>>. It looks like the lord is drunk, lying in the center of the training field. <<caspar>>My lord, please get up. I think you've had too much to drink during practise today, let's get you to bed.<</caspar>> He tries pulling on the lord's much bigger body, to no avail. <<wymerus>>No, my boy.. *hic* I am horny, squire... *hic* Take care of my shaft again while I lie here...<</wymerus>> <<caspar>>What? Right in the middle of the courtyard? What if someone walks by? We should at least hide somewhere in the corner like normally, my lord.<</caspar>> <<wymerus>>I am too tired and horny to move right now. *hic* I have given you a command, I expect you to follow it.<</wymerus>> You hear <<name caspar>> sigh loudly as he starts unbuckling his master's belt. He kneels down beside him and starts massaging his soft cock. <<if settings.sph>> Even limp, <<name wymerus>>' cock is much bigger than your ?dick. <</if>> <<name caspar>> looks slightly annoyed to be masturbating his lord in the middle of the courtyard, he keeps looking around to make sure nobody spots them, luckily he hasn't been able to see you hiding. After a little while you can clearly see that <<name wymerus>>' member is standing full mast, you can see the outline of the large cock in the dark. <<caspar>>I'm still surprised how little the alcohol affects your stamina, my lord<</caspar>> He says before lowering his head on his lord's cock and giving him a sloppy blowjob. You see <<name caspar>>'s head going up and down really quickly, it looks like he wants to get this over with as soon as possible. <<if settings.vids>> <<video "caspar/caspar_lying_blowjob.webm">> <</if>> <<wymerus>>Good, my squire. *hic* But I need more. *hic* Sit on top of it.<</wymerus>> You hear a suction plop sound as <<name caspar>> takes his master's cock out of his mouth. <<caspar>>My lord, have you gone mad? Someone will definitely spot us if I start riding you right now.<</caspar>> <<wymerus>>I have *hic* given you an order, squire. *hic* Get on top of me.<</wymerus>> You again hear a loud sigh coming from <<name caspar>>. <<name wymerus 'Lord'>> is giving commands while not moving a single inch, it looks like he expects his squire to do all the work here. His loyal squire switches position, he takes off his pants and moves ontop of him, squatting right above his large member.?nl He slowly moves down, having properly wetted the massive cock he takes his lord inside of him and immediately let out a loud moan before putting his hand over his mouth, seeming surprised by his reaction.?nl He tries to stay quiet while finding the right pace but still, everytime he moves down he lets out a soft moan. Seeing him work for his master like this so out in the open is really thrilling. <<if settings.vids>> <<video "caspar/caspar_riding.webm">> <<else>> <<img "caspar/peeping_riding_{theme}.jpg">> <</if>> Finally, <<name wymerus>> shows some real signs of life as he suddenly grabs his squire by his sides and starts pumping him up and down even faster.?nl They both start moaning very loudly as the squire lowers himself, completely enveloping his master's cock as they both cum at the same time. You suddenly hear a guard open the door to the courtyard. <<guard>>Is anyone there? Show yourself!<</guard>> Both the lord and the squire scramble to their feet and run out of here, right before the guard could spot them.

For instance, our dear prince here has such... unique interpretations of protocol.

Now leave, before I change my mind.<</kathryn>> You quickly scamper away back to the castle. <<decision 'Quickly go to your bedroom' 'Bedtime'>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<finally>> You see a small path through the bushes leading closer to the gazebo. You try to make as little noise as possible though it's not like it really matters, the loud moaning and grunting is hard to overpower.

You have a real déjà vu moment as you hear this nobleman shout out in your direction. <<if !hasEquipmentTag('chastity')>> <<say `getNoble()`>>What was that?! Reveal yourself!<</say>> Before you can even respond you hear ?Kathryn speak to the nobleman. <<kathryn>>Ugh... leave this to me, <<noble>>.

She stands in front of you with a <em>very</em> disappointed look on her face. <<kathryn>>Again? Really?! Are you really that perverted that you can't leave me alone even when I tell you to?<</kathryn>> You just gulp as you're not really sure how to respond to her. <<kathryn>>You perverted little shit...

You walk onto the gazebo with a very ashamed look on your face.?nl The nobleman looks quite confused at the situation, ?Kathryn is still half naked now with a smile on her face. <<kathryn>><<noble>>, this is the prince. He sometimes likes to play peeping tom...<</kathryn>> The nobleman nods to you, not sure what to do. <<kathryn>>I think he likes to hide in the bushes and jerk his ?dick while we are having our fun here.

It is so pathetic!<</kathryn>> The nobleman's look of confusion quickly turns into laughter as he sees your cage. <<say `getNoble()`>>That is absurd, what kind of man are you? Why can't you simply unlock the thing?<</say>> ?Kathryn deftly produces a small key from her dress and looks at the nobleman. <<kathryn>>Because I'm not letting him...<</kathryn>> <<say `getNoble()`>>Hahaha! Oh my, you are quite something, <<name kathryn 'Lady'>>.<</say>> ?Kathryn's disposition seems to have an arousing effect on the nobleman as he suddenly moves to embrace her again, completely ignoring the fact that you are here. He's kissing her neck as ?Kathryn makes eye contact with you. <<kathryn>>Now why don't you leave us to our personal time, ?titleK.<</kathryn>> You turn around with a defeated posture, instantly obeying anything ?Kathryn tells you to do. <<decision 'Leave to your bedroom' 'Bedtime'>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Run away without explanation'>> <<player>>What- No, I can't...<</player>> You're unsure what to do in this conversation so you decide to just quickly leave this place as you run back your bedroom.

Come on, let me have another look, I promise I won't laugh again!<</kathryn>> <<decision 'Slowly remove the pillow again' submissiveness medium>> You slowly lift the pillow. Her humiliation seems to have some effect on you as you feel your ?dick starting to get hard. <<kathryn>>That is so pathetic... Are you actually getting hard from me calling your dick tiny?

It's basically a clit at this point. Can you even call yourself a man, ?titleK?<</kathryn>> She walks away from you while laughing loudly still. Before she exits the room she turns to you. <<kathryn>>Well I think I've seen enough. That was the most pathetic thing I have seen my entire life. I don't think you would be able to satisfy anyone with that tiny thing. Now, don't go spying on me again or I will go tell everything what a pathetic little cocklet you have, got that?<</kathryn>> She then slams the door shut, leaving you alone in your bedroom.

While you stare out of the window thinking about the fun things you could be doing instead right now you suddenly notice ?Leopold make eye contact with you as he closes the book he was just reading from. <<leopold>>Perhaps it's more fun to put in some practical experience... Would ?title be interested in helping me sort this box for me?<</leopold>> He walks over to his cupboard and retrieves a large grey box. He puts four bowls on the table and empties the rest of the box in front of you, a large collection of coins in different colors and sizes. It looks like he expects you to help him sort his collection. <<decision 'Sort the coins' 'Minigame Coins'>><</decision>> <<if settings.skipminigames>> <<decision '(Cheat) Skip minigame' 'Leopold Coins Finish'>><</decision>> <</if>>

You listen as he explains the basics of bookkeeping and how to keep track of income and expenses. He shows you how to use a ledger to record transactions, and he gives you tips for staying organized.

<<name leopold>> shows you all the different coins used as currency in the kingdom. He tells you all about the history of the royal mint and how one day you will also be printed on a coin.

Today, <<name leopold>> takes you through the castle ledgers. He shows you all the expenses necessary for upkeep and lists the taxes that are owed from the nearby villages.

<<changeschedule leopold 'night' 'Treasury'>> While tutoring you, you notice ?leopold seems a bit different than normal. He's shifting in his seat quite a bit. At one point during the lesson, you ask him to clarify a certain part of the ledger. He stands up and moves around the desk to look at it with you. The moment he leans over your shoulder to look at the book, you suddenly see why he has been acting uncomfortable before. The massive package in his pants is very visible, mere inches from your face. <<decision "Stare at his bulge" depravity small>> <<img "leopold/tutor_bulge_{theme}.jpg">> For some reason, you can't keep your eyes off of his package. Every time you try to focus on what he's explaining, you find your eyes trailing back to his crotch. When he's standing close to you, you are really surprised at how big it is. You start wondering how big it is without the pants and find yourself getting slightly aroused. <<if settings.sph>> Your own boner could never make such a big bulge in your pants. Your ?penis is nothing comparing to the thing you see here. <</if>> After a while he sits down again across from you and smiles at you. <<leopold>>Everything alright, ?title? You seem a little distracted.<</leopold>> <<if getStat('depravity') > 25>> <</if>> <<decision "Make up an excuse and ignore it">> <<player>>Y- yes, it's nothing. I was just daydreaming!<</player>> <<leopold>>Hahaha, believe me, I understand why. This subject is definitely not as exciting as swordfighting with ?wymerus!<</leopold>> As he's laughing it off you realise you have not paid any attention to the lesson this time. Unfortunately the situation distracted you so much that you learned nothing from this. <<decision "Thank him for the lesson and leave his office" 'Hallway'>><<addcounter 'leopold' 0.5>><<increasetime 1 true>><</decision>> <</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision "Try to ignore it and continue the lesson" 'Leopold Lessons' virtue small>><</decision>>

<<changeschedule leopold 'night' 'None'>> <<addcounter 'leopold-night' 2>> <<first>> As you enter ?Leopold's office to check on him, you can hear him softly saying something but you can't quite hear what exactly. You slowly open the door and see him sitting behind his desk. It looks like he is alone in the room so who was he talking to? ?nl ?Leopold is leaning back in his chair until he sees you, he immediately sits upright, slightly startled. <<leopold>>?Title! I'm sorry, you surprised me, what are you doing here so late?<</leopold>> <<player>>I was coming to check on you, ?Leopold. I was walking through the hallway and I notices the light coming from your office. Are you still working this later?<</player>> He stammers slightly as he gives his reply. <<leopold>>Ah! Of course, yes, I was- uhm- simply finishing up a few things. I should be done soon, ?title. Thank you for your concern.<</leopold>> As he's talking you see him shift slightly awkwardly in his chair. You walk closer with an inquisitive look, there's some kind of strange wet noises you are hearing coming from his desk. Your suspicion causes him to immediately try and draw your attention. <<leopold>>Ah but ?title, you should not worry yourself about such trivial things! Please, go sleep for the night and I will be done- ah- very shortly.<</leopold>> You suspiciously look him up and down. <<leopold>>You know how it is, the financial work of the kingdom never ends.<</leopold>> <<player>>Yeah... It never ends... Well alright, I'll leave you to it, ?Leopold. Try not to make it too late.<</player>> <<leopold>>Of course, ?title.<</leopold>> <<decision "Leave his office" "Bedtime">><</decision>> <<then>> You once again notice ?Leopold is in his office at night. He was acting very suspicious last time you caught him. This time, instead of barging in, you could be quiet and see if you can hear something. He might be talking again.?nl <<decision "Spy on him" depravity small>> He's been acting too weird to not investigate this further. You decide it's best to spy on him and see what you can find out. You open the door ever so slightly and you can barely make out his figure, once again sitting behind his desk. He's leaning back and looking down towards something you can't see. Once again, you hear him softly speak but this time, because you listen attentively, you can make out what he's saying. <<leopold>>Ah, that is good... Keep going...<</leopold>> Who is he talking to right now? <<leopold>>Yeah, do you like my big cock, you slut?<</leopold>> Now even more noticeable, you hear the wet sounds coming from under his desk. Someone is giving him a blowjob under there! <<leopold>>I know you do... Look up at me while you take my big dick down your throat... Ah yeah that's good!<</leopold>> This suddenly got very exciting, who is the mystery person under the desk right now? <<leopold>>Keep going... Just like that... I'm getting closer...<</leopold>> You hear the blowjob sounds increasing in frequency. It looks like whoever is under there is trying their best to make ?Leopold reach his climax right now. <<leopold>>Ah fuck! I'm coming!... Yes... Take it all you fucking slut, let my seed slide down your throat like that.<</leopold>> ?Leopold groans loudly for quite a while, afterwards you see him relax and you can hear a gasping for air sound coming from the desk followed by some coughing. <<leopold>>That was wonderful, nicely done. Now get out of here while I clean up.<</leopold>> ?Leopold starts to stand up and close his pants. You hear the mystery person crawling out from under the desk but you can't quite see them just yet. As you're waiting to get a look at them, ?Leopold is now walking around the desk and stands perfectly in the way from you seeing this person. Damn.?nl He's now standing so close to the door that there's a high chance he will spot you soon, you need to get out of here. You can't believe you didn't manage to see who the mystery person is. <<decision "Leave before you get caught" "Bedtime">><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision "Leave him alone" "Bedtime" virtue small>><</decision>> <<finally>> <<addtag 'leopold-mystery'>> You once again notice ?Leopold is in his office at night, probably getting another blowjob. You still don't know who the mystery person is, you could try to peek on them again.?nl <<decision "Spy on them" depravity small>> You open the door ever so slightly and you can barely make out his figure, once again sitting behind his desk. He's leaning back and looking down towards the mystery person. Once again, you hear him softly speak and you can make out what he's saying. <<leopold>>Ah, that is good... Keep going...<</leopold>> <<leopold>>Yeah, do you like my big cock, you slut?<</leopold>> <<leopold>>I know you do... Look up at me while you take my big dick down your throat...

But perhaps it would capture more of your personality if you were to use more paint...

You walk into the castle library and see <<name morgana>>, the royal sorceress, sitting at a table. She looks up from her book and smiles. <<morgana>>Thank you for meeting me, ?title. I called you here to discuss the pressing matter.<</morgana>> <<player>>You mean the matter about my marriage? Why did you want to meet with just the two of us about that anyways?<</player>> It seems like she ignores the question, as she holds out her hand to you. <<morgana short>>May I?<</morgana>> Gesturing for you to let her examine your hand. <<decision "Give her your hand" 'Meet Morgana 2' submissiveness medium>><</decision>> <<decision "Tell her you want to know what this is about first" dominance medium>> <<player>>No, first tell me what this is about.<</player>> <<morgana>>It's nothing to be afraid of, ?title. I simply wish to examine your hands. I have a plan to help with the marriage issue but I need to examine you first.<</morgana>> You sigh and decide it's best to play along for now. <<decision "Give her your hand" 'Meet Morgana 2'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

You lay your hand in hers and she starts carefully examining it. She runs her fingers along the lines in the palm of your hand. <<morgana>>You have beautiful hands, ?title. Quite delicate and soft.<</morgana>> You look at her, slightly uncomfortable. She continues and palpates your fingers slowly. You feel a slight magical energy coming from her touches. <<morgana short>>Just hold still like that.<</morgana>> You feel more and more energy running from her hands. A soft purple glow starts emanating from it, it feels warm and soft but also strange. The warmth gets more and more, she's definitely casting some kind of spell on you. <<decision "Let her complete the spell" femininity medium>> <<effect charm>> <<addsin 'magic'>> You feel a strong warmth wash over you, purple light shines from your hand briefly. She looks at you, happily. <<morgana>>I didn't expect it to work that well, interesting.<</morgana>> <<changerelation morgana 10>> The warm feeling flowing through your body feels good, it fades after a short moment. You look at her, slightly concerned. <<player>>What was that spell?<</player>> <<decision "Listen to her explain the spell" 'Meet Morgana 3'>> <<effect charm off>> <</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision "Rip your hand away" virtue small>> You quickly pull your hand away before the spell could finish. <<player>>Stop, I didn't ask you to start casting spells on me!<</player>> She looks at you, concerned. <<morgana>>I'm sorry, ?title. I should've explained the spell first. It's fine, we don't have to do it.<</morgana>> You calm down and listen to her explanation. <<decision "Listen to her explain the spell" 'Meet Morgana 3'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

<<morgana>>That spell was simply to test how well my transformative magic works on you. It feels like your body responds very well to it, ?title.<</morgana>> <<player>>And why are you doing this to me now?<</player>> She looks at you with a serious face. <<morgana>>My predecessor, ?Godric, was always careful about using transformation magic. I, however, am quite a bit more adept in that field. I believe this kind of magic can be used to our benefit.<</morgana>> You look at her, puzzled. <<player>>Benefit how?<</player>> <<morgana>>Well, right now, with the marriage issue. This magic can not only help you look exactly as visually pleasing as you wish to be, but it can also alter your behaviour. It could help you adapt to courtly etiquette better.<</morgana>> You give her a slightly offended look. <<morgana>>I'm sorry, ?title. Please, by no means see the wonderful opportunity of this magic as nothing more as something to help you, it is by no means evidence of anything you are lacking but simply there to improve you even more.<</morgana>> <<player>>Very well... However, the issue with my marriage is not related to me but it lies in the fact there are no eligible princesses.<</player>> <<morgana>>Of course, it's difficult to explain, but just trust me when I say that this magic will help with that issue. See it as a way to easily impress the councillors on how good of a prince you are. You want to impress them, don't you?<</morgana>> You are a bit reluctant but decide to let her help you. <<player>>I suppose... What is it that you would need me to do?<</player>> <<morgana>>Join me in the garden in the morning, ?title. There's some ingredients for one of the spells I need to get there.<</morgana>> This whole situation confuses you slightly. But she is the court sorceress and she is here to help you, it might be interesting to help her. <<player>>Fine, I will see you in the garden.<</player>> <<decision "Leave her" 'Library'>> <<changeschedule morgana 'noon' 'Garden'>> <<completequest meet-morgana>> <<startquest morgana-ointment-garden>> <<addcounter morgana 1>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <</decision>>

As you stand in the garden with Morgana, you can feel the sun warming your back. She is pointing to a bed of flowers and telling you which ones to pick. <<morgana>>Those ones, over there. They're perfect for what I need.<</morgana>> She gestures to a row of purple flowers. You nod and begin plucking the flowers, filling your basket with them. Morgana watches you intently. <<player>>What are these for exactly?<</player>> <<morgana>>A transformative salve, the exact nature is not important, just that it's important for you.<</morgana>> She takes the basket from you and begins walking back towards the castle. You follow her, feeling a bit confused and intrigued. She leads you to your bedroom and stands at the door. <<morgana>>Would you mind waiting in here, ?title? I will be back shortly.<</morgana>> She walks off in the direction of her workshop. You wonder what she is up to, but you know that you'll find out soon enough. <<decision 'Wait for her to return' 'Morgana Ointment 2'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Bedroom'>> You wait inside your bedroom for quite a while before she finally returns. She enters your chambers with a small jar filled with pink ointment and hands it to you. <<morgana>>This is for you, ?title. It is important that you use it. Apply it to your skin before bathing in the morning.<</morgana>> <<img 'morgana/ointment.jpg' null '200px'>> You take the jar and examine it, feeling a bit skeptical. <<player>>What does it do?<</player>> <<morgana>>It will make your skin softer, which is more desirable from a young prince.<</morgana>> You're not sure if you have the desire to have softer skin, but she seems adamant that you try it. <<morgana>>Come see me once you have applied the salve three times before morning baths, the effects should be noticeable by then<</morgana>> <<player>>Very well, if I won't forget, I guess I could try it..<</player>> <<decision 'She says goodbye and leaves your bedroom' 'Bedroom'>> <<addcounter morgana 1>><<completequest morgana-ointment-garden>><<addtag ointment>> <<startquest morgana-ointment>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <</decision>>

You walk over to Morgana to talk to her. Before you say anything she takes your hand and runs her hand along your arm. <<if getStat('femininity') < -85>> <<morgana>>Hmm... You haven't used the ointment much, have you? Come back to me once it's settled in more, you'll need to used it before morning bathes several times.<</morgana>> You nod to her. <<player>>I'll suppose I'll be back later then, <<name morgana>>.<</player>> [[Leave | Hallway]] <<else>> <<completequest morgana-ointment>> <<morgana>>Wonderful! Your skin feels much smoother, looks like there's less hairs as well. This is all very important for being a good prince. It's time we look at the next steps.<</morgana>> <<player>>Next steps? What more could you want?<</player>> She laughs slightly and looks at you. <<morgana>>It's not about what <em>I</em> want, ?title. You must remember that we are doing this for you. I'm simply here to serve you. Anything for you, ?title.<</morgana>> She runs her hands along your arms. <<player>>F- fine, whatever you say, I suppose. What are the next steps of the plan then?<</player>> <<morgana>>It's quite a delicate matter, ?title. We should discuss it where nobody can bother us. It's best if we go over this somewhere private...<</morgana>> She stares at you with a strange glint in her eyes. Does she mean what you think she means...? While you ponder that question the answer becomes increasingly clear as she starts undoing the top part of her dress, giving a better view of her ample cleavage. <<morgana>>Would it be okay if I visited you in your bedroom tomorrow night? We can go over the plan on how to help you, and in turn, the kingdom.<</morgana>> You can't deny you're attracted to the beautiful mage. You have always found her looming mystique quite interesting but you would never have guessed she would come onto you like this. Totally caught off guard, you stammer out a response. <<player>>Uh- right- well- if that's what's needed to help the kingdom, of course.<</player>> She smiles at you and touches your hand one more time as she starts leaving the room, winking at you. <<morgana>>Very good. See you then, ?title.<</morgana>> <<decision 'Take your leave' 'Hallway'>> <<addcounter 'morgana' 1>> <<changeschedule morgana 'night' 'Bedroom'>> <<startquest morgana-bedroom>> <</decision>> <</if>>

You open the door to your bedroom and once again find <<name morgana>> standing there, this time during much a much later hour. She smiles at you and walks inside. You can't help but notice that she's wearing something a little more revealing: a dress that barely covers her shape. <<img "morgana/bedroom_visit_{theme}.jpg">> You look at her sheepishly while she smiles mischievously. <<morgana>>Do you approve of the outfit, ?title?<</morgana>> <<player>>Y- yes, you are looking very nice, <<name morgana>>.<</player>> She laughs, walks over to your bed and sits down, patting her hand on the mattress next to her. You follow her and sit down on the bed. She immediately scooches closer to you. It definitely feels like she's making a move on you when she reaches a hand around you. You reluctantly welcome the advances but notice too late that her hands starts glowing purple as she casts a spell on you. [[The purple light washes over you | Morgana Bedroom 2]]

<<effect charm>> You feel a rush of lust wash over you. You're pretty sure she cast some kind of aphrodisiac spell but you don't really care right now. All you care about is her beautiful body. You have never been close to a woman before, nothing like this. <<morgana>>There... I'm very happy you agreed to meet with me here, ?title. You see, for the next step to help you, I've been working on potion. There's just one ingredient I am missing.<</morgana>> You are far too distracted to attentively listen to her, you give her a nod while you keep staring at her breasts. She smiles at you as she continues. <<morgana>>I require your essence, ?title... A pure extract of your most lustful desires. I thought it would be only fair for me to help you in the extraction process...<</morgana>> You noticed after the spell was cast you immediately got a boner. <<if settings.sph>> You see her staring down at your crotch with a slightly suspicious look. <<else>> Your first instinct was to hide it but it looks like you can't even do that anymore. She seems to have taken notice as you see her smile while looking down at your crotch. <</if>> <<morgana>>?Title, I know it is forbidden for a woman to have intimate contact with you, but the royal principles say nothing about pleasing yourself while simply looking at a woman. Is this be something you want?<</morgana>> [[Yes, it is definitely something you want. | Morgana Bedroom 3]]

You lustfully nod at her as she slowly starts undoing the straps of her dress as she's sitting next to you. You stare in amazement as the top part of her dress falls off. <<img "morgana/bedroom_visit_naked_{theme}.jpg">> She smiles at you as she stares at your crotch. <<morgana>>If this sight pleases ?title, he could start pleasuring himself.<</morgana>> You are completely overtaken with lust but you are somehow still reluctant, never having done anything like this before together with someone else. <<player>><<name morgana>>... I don't know if I should...<</player>> She comes closer to your face and tries to reassure you. <<morgana>>?Title, please, we need to extract your essence in order to finish the potion. It will help you become a great leader. Please, while you pleasure yourself do not only think of my beauty but also the kingdom you will be helping by doing this.<</morgana>> <<if settings.sph>> She looks down at your crotch again and looks slightly confused. <<morgana>>?Title, I'm sorry, does my form not please you? I could try the spell again if you want? I expected it to more noticeable affect you.<</morgana>> You now realise the origin of her confusion, she probably expected you to have a more visible bulge in your pants by now. <<player>>No- uh- you are looking wonderful, it's just uh-<</player>> <<morgana>>Is something wrong, ?title? You can show me.<</morgana>> You are much too horny, she was asking you to masturbate anyways so you start taking off your pants. She looks at you with a slightly worried look, but then quickly realises why she didn't see a bulge once you take off your underpants, revealing your tiny dick. You look down at your penis, still small even though you are completely hard and look up at her face. She has a big smile as she stares at your little dick. It almost looks like she's holding back a laugh. <<morgana>>Ah, it's quite alright, ?title. Nothing to be ashamed off, it looks very cute!<</morgana>> She awkwardly laughs a bit. <<morgana>>And big, of course. Not just cute!<</morgana>> <<else>> Your first instinct was to hide it but it looks like you can't even do that anymore. She seems to have taken notice as you see her smile while looking down at your crotch, anticipatively. You pull down your pants, revealing your erect cock. <<morgana>>Very good, ?title...<</morgana>> <</if>> <<morgana>>Now, please feel free to pleasure yourself- Oh, right, let me provide visual stimulation, of course.<</morgana>> She says as she starts playing with her boobs. She looks down at them and starts moaning slightly. It would be very clear she's acting the part but in your horny state it doesn't matter much. You start masturbating your dick to her sitting next to you. <<if settings.vids>> <<if settings.sph>> <<video 'player/masturbate_sph.webm'>> <<else>> <<video 'player/masturbate.webm'>> <</if>> <</if>> You have no time to think about how surreal the situation feels to you. All you can focus on now is her perfect form. It doesn't take long before you feel yourself getting close to the climax. You don't stop to think that it might be embarrassing cumming so quickly already and start going faster and faster. <<player>>I- I'm close, <<name morgana>><</player>> <<morgana>>Oh yes! Very good, ?title, keep going!<</morgana>> She immediately takes a vial that she was holding and moves it next to your dick. You start masturbating faster and faster. You look at her as you start cumming. She suddenly grabs your ?dick and aims it right at the vial, making sure all the cum lands in it. You moan as you let her catch your entire cumshot. <<if settings.vids>> <<if settings.sph>> <<video 'player/cum_in_vial_sph.webm'>> <<else>> <<video 'player/cum_in_vial.webm'>> <</if>> <</if>> <<morgana>>Yes, very nice, ?title! That's more than enough!<</morgana>> She looks very happy as she holds up the vial of cum. She puts a tiny cork in it and puts on her dress again. <<morgana>>Thank you for this, ?title. I will start crafting the potion immediately.<</morgana>> She says as she gets up to leave the room. <<player>>Wait, you're leaving already?<</player>> You look at her, still recovering from what just happened. <<morgana>>I'm sorry, ?title, there's really not much time. The potion is most potent when distilled while fresh. I will finish the potion and come visit another night, we might have more fun like this, if ?title would want that.<</morgana>> There's nothing you would rather have than spending more time with her so you give her a nod, completely charmed. She smiles at you as she leaves the room. <<decision 'Go to sleep' 'Sleep'>> <<effect charm off>> <<addcounter morgana 3>> <<completequest morgana-bedroom>> <<addsin 'masturbation'>> <<startquest morgana-potion>> <</decision>>

You open the door for her and she immediately enters the room. The revealing outfit is once again very noticeable. <<morgana>>I did it, ?title! The potion is ready!<</morgana>> She holds up a glass bottle, it has a white swirling substance inside. You look at her, quizzically. <<player>>So... What does it do exactly?<</player>> <<morgana>>Lots of things, here, let me explain.<</morgana>> She takes your hand and takes you to the bed. She sits down on the center and guides you to lay down next to her. Her black hair touches your skin as you can feel her warmth close to you. She has a mystifying and enchanting smell to her. As you lay down you see her hands glow purple again, but this time she looks at you with a questioning look. You're not sure why she feels the need to ask for permission this time, but you're used to her magical charms by now. <<decision 'Allow her to cast a spell on you again' 'Morgana Potion 2'>><</decision>>

<<effect charm>> <<addsin 'magic'>>You feel a warmth run through you again, your ?dick immediately starts swelling up even more. Even though you simply want to see her naked again, this potion sounds pretty important and you are still reluctant about it. She caresses your cheeks with her hands. <<morgana>>This potion will help guide you to become an even better prince. Do you remember that transformative spell I cast on you? It showed us how much your body accepts this kind of magic. This potion will start the process of the transformation.<</morgana>> You look at her slightly concerned. <<player>>Transformation into what exactly? And I don't mean to sound improper, but didn't you say one ingredient of this potion was my own sperm?<</player>> She smiles at you and then you feel her hand moving down your body. She's softly touching your leg as she's sitting next to you. <<morgana>>You have to believe I simply want what's best for you, ?title. I am here to serve you.<</morgana>> You've never had a woman caress you this much before and it feels heavenly. You stare at her as she starts stripping her dress again. <<img "morgana/bedroom_visit_naked_{theme}.jpg">> <<morgana>>I know the main ingredient is a little unorthodox but many a great kings have used similar magic, all in the pursuit of becoming better. The potion will help guide you and improve you. Will you trust me, ?title?<</morgana>> Even though you are completely charmed by her, you are still doubtful. She notices your reluctant expression and you are suddenly overwhelmed by the feeling of her as she lays her hand on your crotch. You feel her hand tightening around your ?dick. Even though you very much welcome the touch you try to object but she puts a finger on your mouth. <<morgana>>Shhh... It's alright, ?title. Let me take care of you...<</morgana>> She starts slowly massaging your ?dick through your pants as you let out a soft moan. <<morgana>>You trust me, right? Will you drink the potion, ?title? For me?<</morgana>> You make intense eye contact as she's masturbating you faster. You are guided almost completely by lust as you feel yourself growing closer to an orgasm. As she's caressing your ?dick you notice she's holding the potion in her other hand, opened close to your mouth. <<if settings.vids>> <<if settings.sph>> <<video 'morgana/morgana_handjob_sph.webm'>> <<else>> <<video 'morgana/morgana_handjob.webm'>> <</if>> <</if>> <<morgana>>Yes, that's it, ?title. I'm simply here to serve you, let me make you cum, ?title.<</morgana>> You moan as you wet your pants with cum. Right at that moment <<name morgana>> moves the potion vial to your mouth and starts to lift it. <span class="notice danger">This is an important decision that can only be made once in the story!</span> <<decision 'Let her pour the potion in your mouth' 'Morgana Potion Accepted' submissiveness huge>><</decision>> <<decision 'Quickly surprise her by forcing the potion in her mouth instead' 'Morgana Potion Denied' dominance huge>><</decision>>

Overcome with lust you cum as you let her pour the contents of the potion in your mouth, you can taste the bitterness as the white substance enter your mouth. <<morgana>>There, please swallow, ?title.<</morgana>> You stare at her, completely at her mercy as you do exactly what she asks. You swallow as you feel the thick liquid slide down your throat. You immediately feel this intense warmth wash over you. It kind of feels like the spells <<name morgana>> has been casting on you but much more extreme. Instead of just the lustful feeling, you get the idea this affects something deeper within you. <<morgana>>Show me.<</morgana>> She motions for you to open your mouth and you instinctively open it to show her you swallowed all of it. It almost felt like you obeyed her automatically... <<morgana>>Good boy...<</morgana>> She lies down next to you and stares at you with a big smile. <<morgana>>?Title, I am so proud of you. You are going to be wonderful, we're going to have so much fun together!<</morgana>> Her enthusiasm is slightly infecting but you also feel yourself tiring really quickly as you have trouble keeping your eyes open. <<morgana>>Oh yes, the potion can be quite energy draining when adjusting to it. Let it wash over you ?title, go to sleep. We will see each other soon, ?title.<</morgana>> Your eyes start closing right after you see her get up and leave your room. <<decision 'Go to sleep' 'Sleep'>> <<effect charm off>> <<completequest morgana-potion>> <<addsin 'cum-eating'>> <<startquest potion-transformation>> <<changeschedule morgana night 'None'>> <</decision>>

<<effect charm off>> She looks at you in shock as you take the potion and quickly pour it into her mouth. She starts objecting but you look at her intensely. <<player>>It's all right, I'm just going to need you to try out the potion for me. It's completely safe, right? You wouldn't mind showing me how it works first?<</player>> She seems very reluctant and as you're making sure that she doesn't spit it out it looks like she decided to obey you, swallowing the liquid. <<morgana>>?title... Why did you do that...<</morgana>> You would feel bad for manipulating her into drinking that were it not for the fact that she was planning to do the exact same thing to you. <<player>>I'm sorry, ?morgana. I'm not just going to drink the magic potion you give me without seeing what it does first.<</player>> She looks slightly confused and you see her cheeks flush red. <<morgana>>Well, ?title... I cannot tell you what it does but I can share that the potion is quite different when drank by another person than it was intended for...<</morgana>> You look at her with annoyed suspicion. Once again, ?morgana is withholding information from you. While mulling over what to say next you decide to just be forward and tell her you've had enough of that. <<player>>No, ?morgana. I'm done with the secrecy. You will elaborate on what the potion does and tell me about it right now!<</player>> You see her strain against something, it's almost like she suddenly gets very distracted, like her mind is not completely here. Then, when she seemingly snaps out of it she gives you a strange look that you haven't seen before. <<morgana>>Of course, ?title. I will stop hiding information from you. The potion contains strong transformative power. Seeing as it contains your 'essence', this would help your body accept magical transformations more easily and even stimulate physical changes to yourself based on your own behaviour.<</morgana>> Interesting, she seemed very intent on not telling you much until you directly ordered her to. She's never listened to you like that before, is this an effect of the potion? <<morgana>>When another person ingests the potion, I'm genuinely not entirely sure what happens... The transformative magic should inhibit them still, but in a much different way. Perhaps linking the two in some way?<</morgana>> You think you already have some idea of the effects of it as they're very visible now. ?Morgana's mysterious nature seems to not be as important to her now as she suddenly gives much more information about the potion. Which suddenly brings you to a very important question. <<player>>Why did you want me to drink this potion?<</player>> You once again see her strain against something, like she's trying to fight the effects of the potion. Once she snaps out of it, she answers you. <<morgana>>I wanted to help change you, I believed I saw a different path for you, the potion would simply let you be who you might have been on the inside... But perhaps I was wrong...<</morgana>> That's... A vague but genuine sounding answer... You sit there, thinking about the implications of this. <<morgana>>I'm sorry, ?title... The potion is draining my energy, I must rest. Perhaps we can speak another time.<</morgana>> <<player>>Of course, ?morgana. I'm feeling quite tired as well.<</player>> As she gets up from the bed she gives you a long look, she seems to be thinking something over, contemplating whether to say something but she instead just nods. <<morgana>>Good night, ?title.<</morgana>> <<player>>Good night, ?morgana.<</player>> She exits your room with a creaked closing of the door. Now alone, you feel impacted by the weight of this strange night. It's probably best to sleep on it. <<decision 'Go to sleep' 'Chapter'>> <<completequest morgana-potion>> <<startquest morgana-confront>> <<set $chapter = 'Chapter Two'>> <<set $chaptertarget = 'Sleep'>> <<set $chaptertimeskip = false>> <<changeschedule morgana night 'None'>> <</decision>>

The potion worked! ?Title, I never thought it would work so well!<</morgana>> She looks you up and down, taking in the noticeable changes to your body. <<morgana>>Such soft skin, so delicate. Wonderful!<</morgana>> You want to be mad at her, you want to shout at her to give you an explanation but before you can gather yourself to do so, something inside you doesn't want to do that. She's the one who transformed you... You feel so much better in your current body, you really can't be mad at her, can you? <<player>>I- uhm... Yes, the potion seems to have worked... I just wanted to know... Why did you make me do this?<</player>> <<morgana>>Make you? ?title, I'm sorry but I did not make you do anything. I told you why you needed to take these steps and you wisely chose to listen to my council.<</morgana>> You difficult to argue with her. Though her reasoning is far from sound, you accept her explanation like that for now. <<player>>Very well, I do admit that the transformation feels better than expected...<</player>> <<morgana>>I'm very glad to hear it, ?title. Now, before we continue to take any next steps you must allow your body to adjust.<</morgana>> <<player>>More next steps, does that mean we are still not done with these things?<</player>> <<morgana>>Of course not, ?title. You have seen the real benefit to these transformations now, wouldn't you want to keep pursuing this to make yourself an even better prince?<</morgana>> You do admit that you are quite intrigued in the process by now. <<player>>I think so, yes...<</player>> <<morgana>>I'm happy to hear that from you. Let's first give you some time to adjust and then discuss the next plan in my workshop, one week should be more than enough. Meanwhile, you can come visit me there in the evenings, I'll make sure it's open to you, ?title.<</morgana>> ?Morgana's workshop? The sorcerer's tower is the part of the castle that's completely locked off from the rest. Only the Royal Sorceress decides who goes in or out, it's quite a privilege to be allowed in there. <<player>>Thank you, ?Morgana. I will come by to visit you.<</player>> <<else>> <<addtag 'morgana-dominated'>> <<addcounter 'morgana-quest-delay' 3>> <<startquest morgana-workshop-visit>> You walk up to ?Morgana and she immediately gives you a very courteous bow. Something feels... different about her. <<morgana>>I'm at your service, ?title.<</morgana>> She has always been respectful to you but you must say she has ever acted so... servile towards you. <<player>>I'm glad to hear it, ?Morgana. I was hoping to discuss the recent events.<</player>> <<morgana>>Of course, ?title. Do you wish to know more about the effects of the potion on me?<</morgana>> <<player>>Uhm, well yes, that would be a good start.<</player>> She immediately answers you without so much as a hint of reluctancy. <<morgana>>It seems the potion has had quite a strong mental effect on me. It has changed me to become much more submissive towards you, ?title. I find it more and more difficult to not follow through on the orders you give me and now prefer to be completely transparent with you.<</morgana>> You would feel kind of bad about the whole situation but you must say it mostly intrigues you right now. <<player>>That's very interesting to hear, how long do you think the effect lasts?<</player>> <<morgana>>That is difficult to say, ?title. I first felt the effect should wear out soon but it might also have a permanent effect, I'm not sure yet.<</morgana>> A strange though suddenly pops into your mind. <<player>>And say, do you think it's possible to make more of these potions?<</player>> <<morgana>>Of course, ?title. I can get right on that. I'm busy in my workshop most evenings, I could come by to extract more of your necessary essence and then distill it in my workshop then.<</morgana>> Extracting essence... Her plain way of putting such deviant acts does make you feel turned on slightly.?nl You think to yourself: Wouldn't it be more efficient to handle the extraction process right there in her workshop? But that's likely difficult, the sorcerer's tower is the part of the castle that's completely locked off from the rest. Only the Royal Sorceress decides who goes in or out, it's quite a privilege to be allowed in there and you've not heard of ?Morgana ever inviting someone in yet. <<player>>Perhaps I could come visit you in your workshop instead?<</player>> Without skipping a beat she answers you. <<morgana>>Certainly, ?title. I will make sure you have access to my workshop. I will be there most evenings and you are welcome to visit.<</morgana>> Well... That was easy. That potion definitely is some strong stuff. <<morgana>>If you come visit in a few days I might have a plan on some next steps, ?title.<</morgana>> <<player>>Alright, uh- I suppose I'll see you there then.<</player>> She bows to you again as you leave her alone for now. <</if>> <<decision 'Leave' 'Hallway'>><<increasetime 1 true>><</decision>>

<<addcounter 'morgana-workshop' 2>> You walk into the witches' workshop and are greeted by ?Morgana, sitting at her alchemy table, surrounded by vials, books, and strange ingredients. <<if !hasTag('morgana-dominated')>> <<morgana>>Hello, ?title. It's actually great timing that you're visiting...<</morgana>> <<morgana>>You see, I was hoping to create more potions so I could use them for experiments... I was wondering... Would you be willing to provide more of your essence for me to use?<</morgana>> Is she asking to use your cum again? <<else>> <<morgana>>Hello, ?title. I'm happy you're visiting.<</morgana>> Before you can properly greet her you see her grab a vial and turn towards you. <<morgana>>Would you like to start the extraction process now?<</morgana>> That's... Very direct. <</if>> <<decision 'Accept' depravity small>> <<include 'Morgana Workshop Extraction'>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Decline' virtue small>> <<player>>Sorry, ?Morgana. I have no interest in that right now.<</player>> <<morgana>>As you wish, ?title.<</morgana>> <<decision 'Take your leave' 'Hallway'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

<<player>>Uhm, yes, of course, ?Morgana.<</player>> She immediately reaches towards your crotch, aiming to free your ?dick. Her extreme directness has you take a step back. <<player>>Perhaps you would like to undress for me again first?<</player>> <<morgana>>Ah, of course. How could I forget.<</morgana>> She efficiently gets rid of her dress for you. <<img "morgana/bedroom_visit_naked_{theme}.jpg">> The sight of this has you racing and you immediately move to free your ?dick. She moves next to you, ready to help you out. <<morgana>>Let me take care of this, ?title.<</morgana>> You moan loudly as she takes your ?dick in hand and starts stroking it. <<if settings.vids>> <<if settings.sph>> <<video 'morgana/morgana_handjob_sph.webm'>> <<else>> <<video 'morgana/morgana_handjob.webm'>> <</if>> <</if>> She whispers in your ear while she keeps jerking you faster and faster. <<morgana>>I'm here to serve you, ?title... Let me make you feel good...<</morgana>> <<if settings.sph>> <<morgana>>Don't worry about your lack of size... You don't need a big dick to feel good...<</morgana>> Her unfortunate attempt to try and make you feel less insecure does actually make you feel more turned on... Why does the humiliation always work on you... Was that actually her intention??nl <</if>> Bizarre as it is, this whole situation has you extremely aroused and you feel yourself coming closer and closer. <<player>>Ah, ?Morgana... I- I'm close...<</player>> <<morgana>>Yes... Let it all out...<</morgana>> She jerks you off so efficiently you are about to burst. She quickly takes out the vial and holds it to your ?dick. <<if settings.vids>> <<if settings.sph>> <<video 'player/cum_in_vial_sph.webm'>> <<else>> <<video 'player/cum_in_vial.webm'>> <</if>> <</if>> Your ?dick erupts in a white fountain of cum, straight into the vial. ?Morgana immediately holds it up after you are finished and starts inspecting it. <<morgana>>Yes, this is perfect! Thank you, ?title.<</morgana>> You suppose that's it then, you fix your clothes and get ready to leave her to her work. She looks to already be completely focused on that. <<player>>You're welcome, ?Morgana. Good luck with the potion.<</player>> <<decision 'Take your leave' 'Hallway'>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <</decision>>

<<completequest morgana-workshop-visit>> <<addcounter morgana 1>> ?Morgana welcomes you to her workshop and sits you down on a chair next to her desk. <<morgana>>It's time we take a little trip, we will leave the castle and go to the nearby forest to gather some ingredients.<</morgana>> <<player>>Very well, I will ask the guard captain to set up an escort-<</player>> You get cut off by her. <<morgana>>No, ?title. It's important we go together with no one else. I can't be expected to work my magic in peace while we have a whole escort, drawing attention from everyone nearby. Besides, I'll be there to protect you so you have nothing to fear. I am quite formidable, as you know.<</morgana>> <<player>>But the guards will never allow this. You know they would never let me out of the castle on my own. Once they spot me trying to leave the castle they would stop me.<</player>> <<morgana>>That's why we have to make sure they won't spot you. I'll explain later, meet me tomorrow, whenever you're ready to go to the forest.<</morgana>> <<player>>Well, okay then, I will see you tomorrow...<</player>> <<decision 'Take your leave' 'Hallway'>> <<startquest morgana-kitchen>> <</decision>>

<<morgana>>There you are, ?title! Are you ready for our little expedition into the forest? Fear not, all we need to do is gather some mushrooms in the woods. There's a nice place I want to show you out there.<</morgana>> <<first>> <<player>>Well, I'm not quite ready as you haven't shared how I'm supposed to get past the guards yet.<</player>> <<morgana>>Of course, don't worry. I have a good plan that will help you get past them. All you need is a disguise. Follow me to the kitchen.<</morgana>> [[Follow her | Morgana Kitchen 2]] <<finally>> [[Follow her to the kitchen again | Morgana Kitchen 2]] <</first>>

<<setlocation 'Kitchen'>> <<name morgana>> takes you to the kitchen, where she opens a supply closet and asks you to step inside. <<morgana>>All you need is a proper disguise, inside you will find a kitchen maid outfit, nobody will recognise you in that.<</morgana>> <<first>> You stare at her, dumbfounded. <<player>>You want me to wear a girls uniform? Why would I do that??<</player>> <<morgana>>It's the only reliable way to make sure nobody recognises you. Nobody will expect you to dress up like a girl.<</morgana>> <<player>>But why not disguise like a man? Can't I simply wear some different kind of clothes?<</player>> <<morgana>>Because you would be checked, they can't simply have any man go in or out. Kitchen girls, however, enter and leave the castle all the time. Wear the outfit and you'll have no trouble getting past the guards.<</morgana>> <</first>> Is she actually expecting you to step into the larder and change into such an outfit just like that? You can't believe you're actually considering this... You feel that her reasoning behind not being able to use a masculine disguise doesn't makes that much sense though. There's plenty of male servants in the castle, you could probably blend in if you wanted to. She does seem very convinced about the plan and you have learned that when ?Morgana is determined, she doesn't relent easily. Perhaps it might be better to just go along with her plan, she must have a reason to do it this way... <span class="notice danger">This is an important decision that can only be made once in the story!</span> <<decision "Give in and enter the supply closet" "Morgana Kitchen 3" femininity small>><</decision>> <<decision "Demand a different disguise" "Morgana Kitchen Masculine" masculinity small>><</decision>> <<decision "Decline this insane plan" virtue small>> <<player>>No, I can't do this, this goes way too far!<</player>> She takes a moment to consider your outburst before the responds calmly. <<morgana>>Very well, of course I wouldn't want to force you to do something you are uncomfortable. Unfortunately, it has to be just the two of us when we go out in the woods, I can't help you another way. Come find me when you reconsider.<</morgana>> <<decision "Take your leave" 'Hallway'>><<addcounter 'morgana' 1>><</decision>> <</decision>>

<<addtag crossdresser>> <<setlocation 'Larder'>> <<name morgana>> closes the closet door behind you and leaves you to get changed. Luckily the kitchen maid uniform is very modest, it consists of an apron over a long dress that covers you up to your ankles and a large white bonnet that covers your hair and part of your face. Wanting to get this over with as soon as possible, you start undressing. After you rifle through the different articles of clothing you will have to put on, you suddenly notices one piece you didn't see before: A white pair of girls panties. Either <<name morgana>> put this here by accident or she really expects you to wear it. There's really no reason to wear it though, it serves no purpose to the disguise. <<decision "Keep your own underwear on" virtue small>> Yeah no way you're doing <em>that</em>. You quickly change your clothes and leave the panties there. <<decision "Finish changing and leave the closet" 'Morgana Kitchen 4'>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision "Put on the girly panties" femininity small>> <<unlockequipment 'panties'>> <<equip 'panties'>> <<addsin 'wearing-panties'>> You're not exactly sure why you're doing what you're doing right now but you start taking off your own underwear and slip the white panties on. You are simply too curious. The panties feel smooth on your skin and once you get them on completely, nice and snug around your ?dick, you immediately see the effect it has on you. The tip of your ?dick is sticking out above the panties. For some reason, you feel very aroused right now. While trying to get your ?dick situated in the panties, you almost let these arousing feelings completely take over before you hear from the other side of the door. <<morgana>>Is everything alright, ?title? Do you require assistance?<</morgana>> <<player>>Yes- I mean, no, it's alright and I don't need assistance! I'll be out in a second!<</player>> <<decision "Finish changing and leave the closet" 'Morgana Kitchen 4'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

<<player>>?Morgana, I thank you for the effort you put into this plan but I won't be going along with it like this. I like the idea of sneaking out of the castle but I am not going to crossdress for it. Find me a masculine disguise and I will join you.<</player>> Her plan is absurd to you and you won't be having it like this. She doesn't seem to accept your disagreement with her plan immediately as she tries to still convince you before she stops herself. <<morgana>>I think you could perhaps-<</morgana>> As she's attempting to coerce you still, you look at her with a strong determination in your eyes. You are the prince and your preference is mandate, this is a fact you often find that needs reminding to your councillors. She meets your gaze as she's talking and very quickly cuts herself off as she looks down at the floor. <<morgana>>Uh- Of course, ?title. I believed this plan could work better with the disguise I prepared but perhaps you are right, it could just as well work with a different outfit.<</morgana>> You nod at her approvingly. You're actually quite proud of yourself of convincing ?Morgana like that. <<morgana>>Very well, I will try to find a manservant's outfit. It will get you past the guards and we can then enter the forest together. I will come find you in your room when I have everything ready.<</morgana>> <<player>>Thank you, ?Morgana. I look forward to our excursion.<</player>> <<morgana>>Me too, ?title. I will come to your room soon.<</morgana>> She smiles at you as she leaves the kitchen, leaving you alone. <<decision "Leave the kitchen" 'Hallway'>><<completequest morgana-kitchen>><<startquest morgana-forest>><<increasetime 1 true>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Kitchen'>> <<equip 'flats'>> <<equip 'kitchen_maid'>> You walk out of the closet, changed into a kitchen maid outfit while you are still fumbling with the bonnet. <<name morgana>> looks you up and down and gives you a smile. You try to avoid eye contact as to hide your embarrassment. <<morgana>>You look great, ?title. Here, let me help you with that, once we get the bonnet on nobody will recognise you.<</morgana>> She takes the bonnet off your head and starts untying the bad knot you made. Right at that moment the kitchen door suddenly opens and you see <<name rosa>> walk in with a basket full of bread. She sees both of your standing there. <<rosa>>Oh! My apologies, <<name morgana 'Lady'>>, I didn't know you were here. Who's the new-<</rosa>> She squints and looks at you a bit puzzled. <<rosa>>M'lord? What are you doing wearing-<</rosa>> <<name morgana>> immediately cuts her off. <<morgana>>Maybe it's best you leave us alone for a bit, <<name rosa>>.<</morgana>> She looks slightly confused and embarrassed about catching you here. <<rosa>>Of course! I am very sorry for interrupting!<</rosa>> She very quickly leaves the kitchen again. You immediately dash into the supply closet again and start to change back. <<player>>See? Everyone recognises me immediately! There's no way this works! I'm not doing this!<</player>> <<name morgana>> tries to calm you down while you furiously start getting out of the dress. <<morgana>>You weren't wearing the bonnet yet, ?title. It would cover you up more and ensure nobody recognises you. Don't worry, I'll have a chat with <<name rosa>>, she wont be telling anyone.<</morgana>> <<player>>We're not doing this now, <<name morgana>>. I don't know why I agreed to get changed in the kitchen in the first place!<</player>> <<morgana>>You're right, ?title. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have suggested to do this here. I think we can finish the outfit with an extra shawl, that way nobody will recognise you. How about I give you some time to consider it? When you're ready for it we can simply get you changed in your own bedroom instead.<</morgana>> You realise you want to get out of this dress as quickly as possible but the thing is still quite new to you. You step back into the larder and quietly ask her for help with the dress, almost defeatedly. <<player>>Fine, can you please just help me out of this dress now?<</player>> She looks at you like someone looks at a hurt puppy and silently follows you into the larder, closing the door behind her. <<decision 'Undress with the help of Morgana' 'Morgana Kitchen 5'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Larder'>> ?Morgana moves behind you and starts undoing the straps of your dress. She expertly guides you with raising the dress over your head. <<if hasSlotTag('underwear', 'feminine')>> In your panicked state of undressing, you completely forgot you still have the panties on. You are reminded of exactly this fact the moment you step out of the dress and stand there, panties full in view in front of ?Morgana. She looks down and you can see a mischievous smile on her face as she helps undress you. <<morgana>>The panties suit you, ?title. Perhaps you should consider to keep wearing them, nobody will notice anyways.<</morgana>> You feel very ashamed and are unsure how to respond to such a suggestion, before you say something she already cuts you off. <</if>> <<morgana>>I'll give you some privacy so you can finish getting dressed.

It's really early...<</player>> <<morgana>>Yes, it's much easier to sneak out at this time and gathering the mushrooms will take a while.<</morgana>> You could ask her to do this another time, she probably wouldn't mind, or you could get changed right now. <<decision "Get changed" "Morgana Forest 2">><</decision>> <<decision "Tell her you can't do this right now">> <<addcounter 'morgana' 2>> <<player>>I'm sorry, <<name morgana>>.

Dare I say, it suits you.<</morgana>> <<player>>Yeah right... I'm just doing this so we can get those ingredients for you or whatever...<</player>> She nods as she walks over to you. In her hands she holds a brown shawl that she starts winding over your shoulders, covering a part of your face. <<morgana>>There, now nobody will recognise you.

<<setlocation Gatehouse>> <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> You take a deep breath and step out of your bedroom. The two of you walk together through the halls, ?Morgana walks slightly in front, clearly signalling you to be a working maid. Further down the hallway lies the main gate to the castle. You see two guards standing watch, terrifying you. ?Morgana leans close to you and whispers in your ear. <<morgana>>It's going to be alright.<</morgana>> ?Morgana walks up to the gate as the guards greet her. <<guard>>Hail, <<name morgana 'Lady'>>. Are you going out for the day?<</guard>> <<morgana>>Yes, I have business in the forest. I won't be needing an escort.<</morgana>> The other guard turns to you and looks you up and down. You awkwardly nod at him in a greeting and then quickly look away. <<guard>>Very well. Is this a new maid? I don't remember seeing her before.<</guard>> It feels strange being examined up and down, looking like this. <<morgana>>Quite so, I need her to carry some items I'm gathering outside.<</morgana>> The guard stares at you for longer than feels comfortable, is he onto you? <<guard>>Well, I wish her the best of luck.

You awkwardly nod while trying to look away and not show them your face as much. <<guard>>Very well. Is this a new manservant? I don't remember seeing him before.<</guard>> It feels strange being regarded in a much different way now by the same guards who normally greet you every time you go through these gates. <<morgana>>Quite so, I need him to carry some items I'm gathering outside.<</morgana>> <<guard>>Well, I wish her the best of luck. Good luck in the woods, my lady.<</guard>> The guards move to open the gate for you. <</if>> <<decision "Leave the castle" 'Morgana Forest 4'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation Meadow>> You step outside in the sunlight and make your way down the castle hill into the meadow path leading to the forest. You feel yourself calm down much more now that you are outside. <<morgana>>See? That wasn't so hard, was it? They suspected nothing.<</morgana>> <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> <<player>>I'm not sure... That one guard was staring at me quite long...<</player>> ?Morgana looks at you with a slight smirk. <<morgana>>I don't believe that's because he was suspicious of you, ?title...<</morgana>> <<player>>What are you getting at, ?Morgana?<</player>> <<morgana>>I believe he simply liked the way you look, ?title. The guards can get a little improper with the kitchen maids and forget they aren't supposed to stare. You could see it as a compliment.<</morgana>> <<player>>He liked... How I looked? Like this?<</player>> You are really unsure whether to take it as a compliment. You are afraid to admit that hearing this does make you feel something... You spend some time trying to suppress this feeling as you walk across the meadow, getting closer to the forest. <<else>> <<player>>I suppose... It just felt weird disguising for them like that.<</player>> <<morgana>>I understand, ?title. Unfortunately, they're not going to let you through otherwise.<</morgana>> You must admit that it feels nice to get out of the castle on your own volition again. You have certainly missed walking through this meadow. You spend some time enjoying the outside air as you walk closer to the forest together with ?Morgana. <</if>> <<morgana>>We're almost here, ?title.<</morgana>> <<decision "Continue into the forest" 'Morgana Forest 5'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation Forest>> After about an hour of walking you are now in the forest. It is strangely peaceful, birds are singing in the trees as nature is now completely surrounding you. <<player>>So... Why are we here?<</player>> <<morgana>>We need ingredients. Well, not for us, but we're gathering them for a friend of mine who I will introduce you to later.<</morgana>> <<player>>Wait... That's it? Why couldn't we do that with an escort? I thought you needed privacy for a secret ritual or something.<</player>> She looks at you, slightly embarrassed <<morgana>>Yes, I'm sorry, ?title. I may have misled you slightly.<</morgana>> She pauses for her but you simply wait for her to give an explanation. <<morgana>>I mean I do prefer the privacy, I don't think we needed the escort but the reason why I asked you to wear the disguise is so you could experience this freedom again now...<</morgana>> <<morgana>>?Andreas is far too protective of you, I don't think he planned on letting you out of the castle at all anytime soon... This way, you can still get out of the castle on your own accord.<</morgana>> She looks at you with genuine concern in her eyes. Is that really why she made you do this? <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>Why she made you wear the dress? <</if>>Whatever her motivations you must agree it's nice to be able to leave the castle again... <<morgana>>For now, let's just focus on the mushrooms and if you're still mad at me later I will make it up to you somehow.<</morgana>> <<player>>Fine... What kind of mushrooms do you need?<</player>> She walks with you deeper in the forest as she explains what it is that she's looking for. <<morgana>>Yellow capped mushrooms, but not the ones with teal dots. They should smell faintly like the sea.<</morgana>> You're kind of mad at her for taking you all the way out here for such a menial task. <<player>>Okay then... Perhaps we should split up to cover more grounds more quickly...<</player>> <<morgana>>?Title, I'm not sure if that's wise-<</morgana>> She suddenly interrupts herself as she sees your annoyed look. She probably realises you just want to get away from her for a little bit. <<morgana>>Very well, ?title. How about I cover this area and you can go check over near the waterfall, there should be quite a few over there. Let's meet again here once you have enough.<</morgana>> You nod to her and walk off deeper into the forest. <<decision 'Find some mushrooms' 'Morgana Forest Bandit 1'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation Waterfall>> <<increasetime 1>> You spend quite some time looking for the specific mushrooms. It's difficult to keep the mushrooms apart, you've found a bunch of yellow mushrooms that don't smell like seawater and some that definitely do but are spotted instead... Still, you managed to find <<money mushrooms false 8>> mushrooms and put them in your basket while making your way over to the waterfall.?nl Next to the water you find a few yellow capped mushrooms with teal dots, was this the kind ?Morgana told you to avoid? What could be so bad about them??nl The sound of rushing water is pretty loud with how close you are to the waterfall. While you're crouching down to gather some mushrooms you don't even hear it when someone walks up behind you.?nl <<changemoney mushrooms 8>> <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> <<bandit>>What do we have here? A girl all on her own in the dark woods?<</bandit>> You hear the gruff voice as you quickly turn around and see a man standing, looking rugged. <<bandit>>Are you lost, woman?<</bandit>> You try to keep your voice soft and as feminine as possible. <<player>>Uh- No, I'm just out on a stroll...<</player>> You're really not sure what to do. This man definitely looks like a bandit, he's slowly walking closer to you as he speaks to you. <<bandit>>It's a dangerous place to walk around all alone... Allow me to help you find your way back.<</bandit>> You slowly walk backwards, trying to match the speed that he's inching towards you. You realise walking backwards in the woods while attempting to sound feminine is quite difficult, especially when you suddenly find yourself tripping on a branch. <<player>>Oh thank you but I'm quite alright, thank you- Ack!<</player>> You tumble down to the ground, falling backwards. You're hoping your outburst didn't break your disguise to him. As you free your dress from the thick bushes and quickly lift yourself up again, you see the bandit looking at you with an inquisitive expression. <<bandit>>Wait... Are you... Are you even a woman?<</bandit>> You look at him, feeling very embarrassed. You don't give him an answer but your awkwardness is clear enough to him. For some reason he's still staring at you, it almost feels like he's ogling you. <<bandit>>Well I suppose it doesn't really matter, you are looking pretty enough...<</bandit>> You wonder why he's acting so strange when you suddenly notice something growing in his crotch area. You have never been in a situation like this and find yourself very much unsure what to do. Getting caught crossdressing made you feel immensely embarrassed. Seeing the man actually enjoying it makes it feel even weirder. Unfortunately the result of your indecisiveness is you just standing there, mindlessly staring at him... <<bandit>>You know, I can still help find your way out of these dark woods but first I was wondering whether you could help me with a little problem...<</bandit>> Is he seriously asking you do what you think he means? Even before you can think on his question, something inside of you snaps as you feel like you need to get out of this situation. <<else>> <<bandit>>What do we have here? A boy all on his own in the dark woods?<</bandit>> You hear the gruff voice as you quickly turn around and see a man standing, looking rugged. <<bandit>>Are you lost?<</bandit>> <<player>>Uh- No, I'm just out on a stroll...<</player>> You're really not sure what to do. This man definitely looks like a bandit, he's slowly walking closer to you as he speaks to you. <<bandit>>It's a dangerous place to walk around all alone... Allow me to help you find your way back.<</bandit>> You slowly walk backwards, trying to match the speed that he's inching towards you. You realise walking backwards in the woods while attempting to keep an eye on him is quite difficult, especially when you suddenly find yourself tripping on a branch. <<player>>Oh thank you but I'm quite alright, thank you- Ack!<</player>> You almost tumble down to the ground as you fall backwards, the only thing stopping your from falling butt-first into the bushes is the outstretched arm of the bandit, holding you upright. <<bandit>>Careful there, fella, wouldn't want to see you fall down.<</bandit>> You look at him, feeling very embarrassed. He lets go of your clothes and allows you to regain your footing but your awkwardness is clear enough to him. For some reason it feels like he's staring at you, it almost feels like he's ogling you. <<bandit>>Well- uh, if you need any help, feel free to ask. I'm uh- always here to catch you if you fall!<</bandit>> He's sort of stammering as you see him stare at you. You wonder why he's acting so strange, you have never been in a situation like this and find yourself very much unsure what to do. Unfortunately the result of your indecisiveness is you just standing there, mindlessly staring at him... <<bandit>>Uhm- you know, I can still help find your way out of these dark woods but first I was wondering whether you could help me with a little problem...<</bandit>> Is he seriously asking you do what you think he means? You see him not-so-subtly put attention on his crotch area as he suddenly starts scratching. Does he currently have a boner? Even before you can think on his question, something inside of you snaps as you feel like you need to get out of this situation. <</if>> <<decision 'Lash out' 'Morgana Forest Bandit 2'>><</decision>> /* You do find yourself in quite a difficult situation, you're down on your knees and the man is now standing much more closer to you.

Looks like whoever you were shouting for isn't actually here. That means we can get back to business... Where were we...<</bandit>> He roughly turns you around and caresses you again. You're definitely in a bad spot but you won't let him try this on you. You quickly move your leg up and, in one fluid motion, give him a swift kick in the balls that instantly send him reeling. Screaming through the woods. <<bandit>>You little shit, I'll kill you for this!<</bandit>> Unsure what to do, you slowly back off as he comes at you with his dagger.

You snap out of your embarrassment and look at him with an angry face. <<player>>I'm not doing anything like that, leave me alone!<</player>> The bandit, somehow actually startled, takes a few steps back to give you space. He's holding both hands halfway in the air, trying to deescalate the situation. <<bandit>>Whoa there, I wasn't going to force you to do anything! Who do you think I am?<</bandit>> You look at him, quite surprised he is responding so well. <<player>>Well, you're a bandit, aren't you? I don't know what kind of things you get up to in these woods...<</player>> He looks at you, slightly offended and gives a retort back. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> <<bandit>>Hey you're the one who's crossdressing out in the woods on your own! I just wanted to see if you were down for some fun...<</bandit>> <<else>> <<bandit>>Hey you're the one who's wandering the woods on your own. I just wanted to see if you were down for some fun...<</bandit>> <</if>> You must say he felt much more intimidating before, which obviously is a red flag when he's casually looking for things like that in the woods but then again, he didn't actually put his hands on you. <<player>>Oh... Well... I'm not.<</player>> <<bandit>>Okay, that's fine. I'm going to leave then. Try not to get lost.<</bandit>> You stutter a response as he turns to walk away. <<player>>Right... Uhm... Thanks. Goodbye then.<</player>> The bandit casually strolls off, back from where he came. While walking away he suddenly turns his head towards you again, reluctantly shouting one last thing to you. <<bandit>>If you ever change your mind... Come find me in my camp south of here...<</bandit>> Before you can respond he's already to far off to listen to you. That's probably one of the more awkward interactions you've had in a while. You decide it's probably best to just head back to ?Morgana with the mushrooms you have found. <<decision 'Make your way back to Morgana' 'Morgana Forest 6'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Forest'>> You make your way back to the place where you split up from ?Morgana and after a little while you spot her, gathering mushrooms. She seems to have way more of the things in her basket than you managed to get. To be fair, you didn't expect to be jumped by a bandit out there... <<morgana>>Ah, ?title. You brought some mushroom, very good. How did it go?<</morgana>> <<player>>Uh- Yeah- I mean, yes, it went fine. Do you think we have enough?<</player>> She looks at you a little suspiciously but you decide not to share anything about the bandit. She inspects the baskets of mushrooms and looks at you. <<morgana>>Yes, this should be enough. Follow me, ?title.<</morgana>> <<player>>Where are we going?<</player>> <<morgana>>I want you to meet a friend of mine, they have a hut deeper in the woods.<</morgana>> Without asking to many more questions, you follow her deeper in the forest. <<decision 'Follow Morgana' 'Morgana Forest 7'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Druid Hut'>> After walking for a short while you make it to an opening in the forest, it's filled with patches of flowers. Red roses, blue lilies and daffodils are lined in flower gardens bordering the woods. In the middle of this flowery glade stands a lone hut. Once you get closer you realise the outside of the hut is lined with small decorations like dried flowers and wooden totems. <<player>>That looks cozy, who's this friend of yours that lives here?<</player>> <<morgana>>Their name is ?Hyssop. They're the local forest druid, I used to study magic together with them. Even though ?Hyssop had a real gift for it, they never shared my ambition and instead they're simply content living in the woods and working on their hobbies.<</morgana>> It's interesting hearing ?Morgana talk about an old friend like this, you kind of assumed she always just wanted to be a councillor and serve the kingdom, you never wondered about her life before that. <<player>>So why do you want me to meet this druid, is it another spell that you need their help with?<</player>> <<morgana>>Well, not at all, actually. Funnily enough it's one of their hobbies that I think could be useful to you. Let me take you inside, you'll see.<</morgana>> As you're walking towards the door of the cabin you get a closer look at all the cute decorations out here. It looks like ?Hyssop has chosen a few of their favorite flowers, ones you can't even recognise, and put them in a small flowerbed out here. You inspect the windowsill and try to peek inside but can't see much at all. Before you even get close to the door, it suddenly flies open, sending you jumping. <<decision 'Meet Hyssop' 'Morgana Forest Hyssop 1'>><</decision>>

You startle backwards as the door is blasted open with an immense gust of wind. The wooden door bangs loudly against the outside of the hut. Inside the open doorframe you see a person standing there, holding a hand forwards with magical energy evaporating from it, probably the cause of the outburst. The druid looks at both of you and very excitedly starts running towards both of you. <<hyssop>>?Morgana! You're back!<</hyssop>> ?Hyssop runs towards the overwhelmed sorceress and immediately gives her a big hug. ?Morgana seems a bit flustered but she looks like she's used to this from ?Hyssop. After the warm embrace ?Hyssop takes a moment to look her over and then proceeds to look at you. <<hyssop>>Sorry about the startle, I was just excited when I felt your energy, ?Morgana. Who's the friend you brought?<</hyssop>> <<morgana>>It's good to see you again, friend. I'm sorry for not visiting earlier, it's been too long. Allow me to introduce you to <<name 'player' 'Prince'>>. ?Title, this is my friend ?Hyssop.<</morgana>> <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> You immediately feel very awkward as ?Morgana just outed you as the prince while currently crossdressing as a kitchen maid in the woods. You actually notice ?Hyssop staring and as you're waiting for them to make a comment about that, it looks like they instead simply move in to also give you a nice hug. <<hyssop>>It's a pleasure to meet you, any friend of ?Morgana is a friend of mine. I really like your outfit, ?player!<</hyssop>> You blush slightly at her comment, the embarrassment slowly seeping away. <<else>> ?Hyssop immediately moves to give you a hug as well and you awkwardly accept it. <<hyssop>>It's a pleasure to meet you, ?player. Any friend of ?Morgana is a friend of mine!<</hyssop>> <</if>> <<hyssop>>Oh! I totally forgot to welcome you inside! Please, follow me and I'll make us some tea!<</hyssop>> <<decision 'Go inside the cabin' 'Morgana Forest Hyssop 2'>><</decision>>

You move inside the hut and are amazed at how much is able to fit in such a small house. It feels like the polar opposite to the palace that you are used to. A small room with many things instead of a huge space with few decorations. The walls are lined with knick-knacks and colorful decorations. From embroidery to beautiful flowers. Once you enter the main living space, you notice the room is filled with half-painted canvasses and, more predominantly, mannequins that hold unfinished garbs that ?Hyssop seems to be sewing. Even though there is quite a lot going on, the house doesn't feel chaotic per se. It seems like every little thing has their own space and lives in their own corner, a well managed accumulation of creativity. <<hyssop>>Have a seat, I'll put some water on! Now, tell me what I can help you with.<</hyssop>> <<morgana>>Thank you, ?Hyssop. Well to get right to it...<</morgana>> ?Morgana takes both baskets of mushrooms and puts them on the table. <<hyssop>>That's... For me? ?Morgana! You shouldn't have!<</hyssop>> ?Hyssop moves to instantly give ?Morgana another loving hug before inspecting the mushrooms. <<morgana>>Well, I kind of felt bad for not visiting in a while, I know you always need more mushrooms for your decorations and potions. And I know these are your favorite kind so we got quite a few of them.<</morgana>> ?Hyssop smiles at you as well. <<hyssop>>It almost sounds like you're trying to bribe me...<</hyssop>> <<morgana>>Well... Perhaps we are. You see, I was wondering if you could be of assistance to <<name 'player' 'the prince' none>>.<</morgana>> ?Morgana turns to you while accepting a cup of tea from ?Hyssop. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> <<morgana>>You see, ?title. ?Hyssop is an amazing tailor, probably the best I know. I realise the royal tailors normally make your outfits for you but seeing as you are now trying other kinds of clothes as well, perhaps you could go to ?Hyssop if you would want to look at some options that are too taboo to ask the royal tailors about.<</morgana>> <<player>>You mean... More girly clothes?<</player>> ?Morgana turns to ?Hyssop, trying to explain your reluctance. <<morgana>><<name player 'The prince' none>> is having some issues getting used to this expansion of his wardrobe. He's very new to crossdressing like this and I was wondering if you could perhaps help with that, ?Hyssop?<</morgana>> ?Hyssop looks a little confused, as if they only now realise that you are crossdressing. Almost as if the taboo side of what you're doing finally clicks now that it's directly mentioned. For some reason, this realization seems to be funny to ?Hyssop. <<hyssop>>Hahaha! What's with you people and all those arbitrary expectations? Just wear dresses if you want to, silly!<</hyssop>> Wow, you've never heard anyone with that particular world view. Their reaction makes you think ?Hyssop isn't concerned with gender norms at all... As you stare at them slightly flabbergasted, they seem to change their attitude slightly. <<hyssop>>But, if fitting in better while "crossdressing" is what you need help with, I'd love to help, of course! Wait, I think I have something that could fit you!<</hyssop>> You look at them reluctantly but they have already darted to another room to grab something for you. ?Morgana looks at you with a friendly smile. <<morgana>>It's only if you would want to, ?title. I just wanted you to meet ?Hyssop so you could consider going to them in the future.<</morgana>> <<player>>I suppose it's good to know of the druid's skills and they do seem very nice...<</player>> After a few movements, ?Hyssop returns holding a beautiful long wig in their hands. The brown wig has long strait hair with two thick braids running from the front to the back. <<hyssop>>This'll probably help you fit in better, much better than covering your face with that shawl! I think it should fit you well!<</hyssop>> You look at them a bit awkwardly but realise it's difficult to decline them now that they've given you a gift. <<player>>Ah thanks, ?Hyssop. I suppose I'll try it on.<</player>> <<morgana>>I didn't know you also picked up wig-making as a hobby, ?Hyssop. That looks like some really fine work!<</morgana>> <<decision 'Try on the wig' 'Morgana Forest Hyssop 3'>><</decision>> <<else>> <<morgana>>You see, ?title. ?Hyssop is an amazing tailor, probably the best I know. I realise the royal tailors normally make your outfits for you but seeing as you are now trying other kinds of clothes as well, perhaps you could go to ?Hyssop if you would want to look at some options that work better as disguises and have a less royal feel to them.<</morgana>> <<hyssop>>Oh definitely! I would gladly make some clothes for you, ?player! You can come visit me anytime.<</hyssop>> You look to ?Morgana and then to ?Hyssop. You must say that having a new tailor that could help you make more disguises does sound enticing. <<player>>Thank you, ?Hyssop. I would love to come by sometime, thank you for the invitation.<</player>> ?Morgana looks at you with a warm smile. You must admit ?Morgana's planning works out nicely for you, getting out of the castle like this was a good idea in the end. Though something has you feeling like it's probably time to head back. <<player>>We've probably been away from the castle for some time now though, perhaps we could be getting back.<</player>> <<hyssop>>Ah of course! Thank you so much for stopping by, if you ever need any help with your clothes, feel free to stop by!<</hyssop>> <<morgana>>I can't thank you enough, ?Hyssop. I promise I'll come by soon again, the council work just has be preoccupied quite a lot.<</morgana>> <<hyssop>>Don't worry about it, I'll be here!<</hyssop>> You accept another warm hug from ?Hyssop before you both leave the cabin. <<decision 'Head back to the castle' 'Morgana Forest 8'>><</decision>> <</if>>

<<equip 'wig_1'>> You let ?Hyssop lower the wig over your head and align it correctly. <<morgana>>You look really good, ?title.<</morgana>> <<hyssop>>Yes, it goes perfect with that outfit!

I have prepared a bath for you, the water is nice and warm.<</orson>> <<include 'Orson Acknowledgement'>> He stands next to you, holding a bath towel. <<else>> ?Orson is already busy making your bath. In your morning-zombie state all you can muster is to slowly walk over to the tub. Hopefully the warm water can bring some life in your still half-sleeping state. Council meetings are such a drag. <<include 'Orson Acknowledgement'>> <</if>> <<decision 'Let him help you undress.'>> <<orson>>Allow me.<</orson>> He says as he motions for you to lift your arms. He takes off your top and unknots the string that keeps your shorts up. You lower your shorts, now naked as the day you were born. It's ?Orson's utmost professionalism that lets you feel unbothered by him seeing you naked. <<if hasTag('ointment')>> You suddenly remember the jar of ointment ?Morgana gave to you earlier. You could ask ?Orson to help you apply it. <<img 'morgana/ointment.jpg' null '200px'>> <<decision 'Mention the ointment' femininity large>> <<addsin 'magic'>> <<player>>One more thing, ?Orson. ?Morgana gave me a specific ointment and told me I should apply it before taking a bath in the morning. It's supposed to help with my skin. Could you help me with this?<</player>> You hand the strange jar to ?Orson as he inspects it. <<orson>>Certainly, ?title. Let me help you, please relax while I apply the salve.<</orson>> He opens the jar and starts slathering your skin with the strange substance. It immediately seems to have an effect on you, it feels quite tingly and your skin already feels much smoother. It takes a little while for ?Orson to apply a thin layer everywhere. So far he has carefully avoided your more private area but once he covered everything else he stops and looks up at you. <<orson>>Does the salve need to go <em>everwhere</em>, ?title?<</orson>> It's quite clear he's asking whether he needs to rub it on your dick as well. ?Orson's cold professionalism about the situation continues to amaze you. <<decision 'Give confirmation'>> <<player>>Yes. If you'd please, ?Orson.<</player>> ?Orson nods, takes a bit more of the liquid from the jar and starts to softly apply this to your ?dick. <<if settings.sph>> He's using a single finger to rub it over your ?dick, there's not much area to cover but he's working it dilligently. <</if>> It doesn't take long for this treatment to jumpstart the natural response of your body. Your ?dick starts growing and after a little while of ?Orson applying the salve you are suddenly standing at full mast. This situation must have definitely caught his attention but somehow even now he remains stoically set on his mission as he continues applying the salve. He moves to your backside as he starts to rub your but cheeks. Once done he moves to part your buttcheeks to apply salve even there, it seems ?Orson take his job very seriously. <<decision 'Request of him to give you some relief' dominance small depravity 10>> <<addsin 'masturbation'>> <<player>>?Orson, could you do me a favour and provide me with some relief?<</player>> You seem to have suddenly taken his professionalism away as he's taken aback slightly. <<orson>>Uhm- Certainly, ?title.<</orson>> He looks at you, waiting for you to tell him what to do. <<player>>Kneel, ?Orson. And take off your clothes.<</player>> He follows your command to the letter as he kneels in front of you. He starts stripping his uniform as he looks up at you. You take in his lean body, a certain twink-like stature. You move your ?dick closer as you motion for him to give you a handjob. He takes your ?dick in hand and starts stroking slowly.?nl Simply commanding your loyal attendant to do something like this is turning you on quite a lot. You feel his soft hand intensely masturbating your ?dick.?nl You close your eyes as you take in his intense hand-job, even this task he takes very seriously, it seems like he's quite good at this.

I didn't know this is something ?title enjoys...<</orson>> You finally managed to break his professionalism as this seemed to have awakened something in ?Orson. You feel him slowly start to prod your hole as you let out another moan. You feel completely under his control as he bends you over slightly and starts to whisper in your ear. <<orson>>Let me take care of you, ?title...<</orson>> As you listen to his soothing voice you suddenly feel him penetrate you with a finger and you let out your loudest moan so far. The feeling of ecstacy is overwhelming you as you feel your legs shake slightly. <<player>>?Orson... Ah... So intense...<</player>> He takes the cue as he now starts slowing fingering you while you're standing there, naked in the bathroom. The feeling is overwheling you as you take your ?dick in hand and start masturbating while being finger-fucked. You turn slightly to look at his face and you see him smiling back at you. It's definitely not the smile he normally gives you, his face looks like he knows he is the one who is in control now. <<orson>>Do you want this, ?title? Why don't you ask for it? Beg me for my service.<</orson>> He starts slowing down while you want him to speed up right now. The feeling of your asshole being fingered by ?Orson feels amazing right now. <<player>>?Orson...

You made quite a mess though, are you going to clean this up?<</orson>> You must say it's quite strange to hear ?Orson asking you to clean up your own mess since he is usually the one to do that.

I will be sure to leave you alone this time.<</orson>> He's definitely referring to the time he caught you masturbating in the tub. Thought you feel slightly ashamed, it is strangely reassuring to know he won't disturb you and you can do whatever you in privacy now. <</if>> You undress yourself and get ready to enter the bath. <<if hasTag('ointment')>> You suddenly remember the jar of ointment ?Morgana gave to you earlier.

You settle into the tub and lean back, feeling your body relax. The warm water feels wonderful against your skin.

Would she actually have sex with you?

You can't deny you really long to see her naked. Perhaps it's her mysterious aura but she definitely has some effect on you. Thinking of her, what you could do with her, is driving you wild.

As you're getting up, you notice an unfamiliar piece of folded paper lying on your desk. Your name is written on the front in curling letters. Could this be a note from ?Sybille? <<if hasCompletedQuest('rosa-date')>>Or perhaps a sweet note from ?Rosa?<</if>>?nl You get out of bed and open the note quickly to find...a poem? <<note>> Thine eyes glitter like emeralds,<br> Thy hair strands of amber deep,<br> Fair skin soft as pillow down,<br> Thy laugh a chime I wish to keep.?nl Thou art the subject of my dreams,<br> The scent of blooms on summer morns,<br> A whisper low of sighs in love,<br> My heart a creature caught in thorns.?nl I wish always thy face to see,<br> And, mayhaps, thy hand to hold,<br> For though thou may'st love me not,<br> Thy notice is worth more than gold.<br> <</note>> You look around the room as though the person who wrote the note might suddenly emerge from the shadows. <<if hasCompletedQuest('rosa-date')>>Could ?Rosa really have written this? She hasn't mentioned writing poetry, and you're fairly sure she knows you like her. Could this mean you have a secret admirer?<<else>>You're really not sure who this could be from. Do you have a secret admirer?<</if>> <<decision 'Put the note away for now' 'Bedroom'>><</decision>>

As you come to consciousness, you feel yourself being poked in the neck by something. You sit up and feel under your pillow, finding another note with your name on it. <<note>> Shall I compare thee to a winter's day?<br> Thou art more warm and more full of sunlight:<br> Rough winds make bare December branches sway,<br> And autumn's yellows soon submit to white;?nl Sometime too long does heaven's bright eye close,<br> And often is his grey complexion dim;<br> And every snow from snow is oft unfroze,<br> By chance or winter's ever-changing whim;?nl But thine eternal brilliance shall not fade,<br> Nor lose possession of the heart thou ow'st;<br> Nor shall enternal cold make thee unmade,<br> When my sun-bright affection for thee grow'st:?nl So long as my lungs breathe, or mine eyes see,<br> So long lives love, and this I give to thee. <</note>> Wow, whoever is writing these seems to be putting a lot of effort into their poems. You're not sure what all the lines mean, but it definitely seems like the author has a crush on you. Unfortunately the poems don't really give away much. Maybe if you wait for more poems, the writer will reveal some hints as to their identity... <<decision 'Put the note away for now' 'Bedroom'>><</decision>>

You almost don't see it, but as you are getting out of bed a small piece of crumpled paper catches your eye in the waste paper basket under your desk. Could this be a discarded note from your secret admirer? You retrieve the paper and smooth it out. You see another poem, shorter this time. <<note>> There once was a prince of such beauty,<br> That working for him was no duty.<br> The castle staff swooned,<br> While verses they crooned,<br> Their dreams filled with that royal booty. <</note>> You put down the note slowly. It strikes you that this poem is much less...refined than the previous ones, which is probably why the author threw it away.?nl It feels a bit strange that some anonymous person is apparently dreaming about your ass. Still, perhaps this poem provides you some clues as to their identity. It seems like they work at the castle, though that leaves several possibilities. You could talk to someone who would know more about the castle staff... Or maybe it would be better to just forget about this and pretend you never saw the notes... <<decision 'Resolve to discover who the writer is'>> <<startquest 'find-poet'>> <br>You're not sure how, but you're going to figure out who this poet is. It seems like a good place to start would be to talk to someone who knows a lot of the staff. Perhaps ?Rosa could help? <<decision 'Slip the note into your pocket for now' 'Bedroom'>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Ignore the mystery and get on with your day'>> <br>It would be too awkward to try to figure out who the author is, and in any case, it's a bit strange that they only leave you notes and haven't tried to talk to you. You crumple up the paper and throw it back in the trash can, resolving to forget about this whole situation. <<decision 'Go about your day' 'Bedroom'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

<<completequest 'find-poet'>> You approach ?Rosa in the kitchen as she is hard at work chopping a mountain of vegetables. She notices you come in and gives you a bright smile. <<rosa>>Oh, hello, ?titleR! How can I be of service?<</rosa>> You realize suddenly that asking ?Rosa about the poems is a rather awkward situation. <<if hasCompletedQuest('rosa-date')>>Will she be jealous if someone else on the kitchen staff is interested in you?<<else>>Before you can even say a word, you feel your cheeks growing a bit warm.<</if>> <<player>>Uh, well, it's rather a delicate question I suppose...<</player>> ?Rosa sets down her knife and gives you an encouraging nod, inviting you to continue speaking. <<player>>I, uh, well, I received these anonymous notes...<</player>> You look at her quickly to see if there is any sign of recognition in her face, but she just looks curious. <<player>>They are of a...well...romantic nature. I believe that someone on the castle staff may be, uh, interested in me?<</player>> ?Rosa giggles, covering her mouth with her hand. <<if hasCompletedQuest('rosa-date')>> <<rosa>>So, I suppose that makes two, then? That's so sweet! What do the notes say?<</rosa>> <<else>> <<rosa>>Oh my goodness, how sweet! You have a secret admirer, ?titleR! May I ask what the notes say?<</rosa>> <</if>> It occurs to you that receiving romantic notes does indicate that you are desirable, so you're not sure why this feels so embarrassing. <<if hasCompletedQuest('rosa-date')>>At least ?Rosa doesn't seem to be upset that someone else is romantically interested in you.<</if>> <<player>>Well, that's what I wanted to ask you about. They are all in the form of poems. Do you know anyone on the staff who writes poetry?<</player>> ?Rosa considers your question for a moment, looking thoughtful. <<rosa>>No, I don't believe poetry is a common activity for everyday folk! Perhaps you might ask ?Sybille? She seems to know everything happening in this castle, and I hear she's quite good at puzzles.<</rosa>> You're not sure why you didn't think of asking ?Sybille in the first place. She'll probably take one look at a poem and know who wrote it simply based on type of paper or something. <<player>>Of course, that's a wonderful idea. Thank you, ?Rosa.<</player>> You bid farewell to ?Rosa, making a mental note to discuss this topic with ?Sybille at the next opportunity. <<decision 'Leave the kitchen' 'Hallway'>> <<startquest 'find-poet-2'>> <</decision>>

<<completequest 'find-poet-2'>> You find ?Sybille working at her desk, writing something on a piece of paper. You catch a glimpse of what looks like a set of grids with numbers in some of the boxes before she whips the paper out of sight. Was she working on some kind of puzzle? <<sybille>>How can I assist you, ?title?<</sybille>> You realize that asking ?Sybille, a council member, about this question is somehow even more awkward than asking ?Rosa. <<player>>I was, um, hoping your skill in spycraft might assist me with a...um...rather personal question...<</player>> ?Sybille raises a single eyebrow at you. <<sybille>>A personal question? Of what nature?<</sybille>> You figure you may as well just show ?Sybille one of the notes. You pull the most recent one out of your pocket and hand it to her. <<player>>I have been receiving anonymous poems expressing...uh, affection for me, and I was, well, wondering if you might have any idea who- who they're from...<</player>> ?Sybille reads the poem, and you watch as a slight smirk whispers across her face. <<sybille>>I was wondering if he would ever get up the courage...<</sybille>> <<player>>What? You know who wrote this?<</player>> ?Sybille hands the paper back to you, her face once again completely neutral. <<sybille>>Indeed. This poem was written by ?Orson.<</sybille>> You feel a moment of shock as she says this. <<player>>What?! How do you know this?<</player>> <<sybille>>I have my ways. I will simply say that ?Orson enjoys hiding in dark corners in the library, writing by candlelight. This is a match for his handwriting.<</sybille>> You can't believe that these notes are from ?Orson. He has always acted so professional in your company. He even bathes you without so much as a twitch on his face. Still, ?Sybille seems very certain... <<player>>Well, thank you, ?Sybille... I will have to mull this over...<</player>> <<decision 'Leave the dungeons' 'Hallway'>><</decision>>

<<addcounter 'rosa-breakfast' 3>> Before you can get out of bed, you hear a gentle knock on the door and ?Rosa's voice calling softly from the other side. <<rosa>>M'lord, are you awake?

You hold your breath silently, waiting for ?Rosa to go away. After a few moment, you hear a small disappointed sigh and the sound of soft footsteps retreating back into the castle. <<decision 'Get up' 'Next Day'>><</decision>>

?Rosa should know better than to bring you your breakfast in such a personal way without instruction from you. You speak loudly so that she can hear you through the door. <<player>>This behavior is unbefitting of someone of your station, ?Rosa. I will take my breakfast in the dining hall as usual. Leave me, and do not do this again.<</player>> You hear a muffled sniff from the other side of the door. <<rosa>>Yes, m'lord, I apologize for my behavior.<</rosa>> After a moment, you hear hurried footsteps as ?Rosa retreats back into the castle. <<decision 'Get up' 'Next Day'>><</decision>>

<<addtag rosa-bouquet>> At your invitation, ?Rosa opens the door carefully, balancing a tray on one hand. She closes the door again and approaches you, setting the tray down in your lap with a smile. <<rosa>>Good morning, m'lord! I made you a special breakfast today. I hope you enjoy it.<</rosa>> On the tray, you see a feast. There are warm pastries and bread, a crock of creamy yellow butter, eggs, fresh fruits, a variety of cheeses and meats, porridge, and herbed potatoes. A single flower in a tiny vase decorates the tray.?nl This breakfast is extravagant, even for a royal standard. You wonder at how ?Rosa even managed to fit it all on the tray. <<player>>It would be hard not to enjoy such an assortment, ?Rosa. But why have you brought me this?<</player>> You swear you see a slight blush on ?Rosa's cheeks as she looks down, averting your gaze. <<rosa>>No reason, m'lord, I just thought that you would appreciate it.<</rosa>> <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> ?Rosa is obviously holding something back. Is she doing this because she feels bad about seeing you in the maid outfit? She must be. Nothing else could explain this sudden change in behavior. <<else>> ?Rosa is obviously holding something back. You think back to the past few days, trying to remember if anything happened that would warrant such behavior. Perhaps she heard of how you snuck out of the castle with ?Morgana? <</if>> <<player>>Well, I do appreciate it, very much. This looks delicious. Thank you, ?Rosa.<</player>> ?Rosa looks up and meets your gaze for just a moment. She gives you another sweet smile and looks down again quickly. <<rosa>>I must return to my work now, m'lord. As you know, I'm always in the kitchen, if you need me.<</rosa>> ?Rosa makes her way back out of the room. As she's leaving, you catch sight of her face one last time and see that her cheeks are definitely rosy now.?nl You devour the breakfast. It is indeed delicious, and a pleasant change of pace to enjoy in the privacy of your own room before tackling the duties of the day. As you set down the tray, the flower ?Rosa placed there catches your eye.?nl Perhaps you could return the favor by bringing her flowers from the garden. <<decision 'Get up' 'Next Day'>><</decision>>

While strolling through the garden, you notice how many fragrant, colorful flowers are growing here. The beauty of the flowers reminds you of ?Rosa and how she so thoughtfully brought you breakfast. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> Even if she only brought you the food because she felt bad for seeing you in the maid outfit, it was still a sweet gesture. <</if>> Perhaps you could pick her a bouquet to show your appreciation. <<decision 'Make your best bouquet and take them to Rosa' 'Rosa Make Bouquet'>><</decision>> <<decision 'Do this another time' 'Garden'>><</decision>> /* :: Rosa Rejected <<removetag rosa-bouquet>> Giving ?Rosa a bouquet is a nice idea, but you don't want her to get the wrong impression about your relationship. After all, she is a kitchen maid and you are a prince. Giving her such a gift would be improper. <<decision 'Continue your walk through the garden' 'Garden'>><</decision>> */

You start to pick some flowers, realizing quickly that creating a bouquet is more difficult than you expected. There seems to be some secret combination of colors, shapes, and heights that florists must know, because the bundle of flowers you're making looks nothing like those you see at royal events.?nl Still, the flowers in soft shades of pink and blue remind you of ?Rosa, so you focus on collecting those into your best attempt at a bouquet. The result is rustic, but pretty and sweet-smelling. <<decision 'Bring the flowers to Rosa' 'Rosa Give Flowers'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Kitchen'>> <<removetag rosa-bouquet>> When you enter the kitchen, ?Rosa is chopping vegetables while a stew bubbles in a large pot. She looks up as you enter. <<rosa>>Hello, m'lord! My, what lovely flowers you have there.<</rosa>> <<player>>These are actually for you.<</player>> ?Rosa looks surprised, but then breaks into a bright smile. <<rosa>>For me, m'lord? Goodness, how thoughtful of you!<</rosa>> She accepts the bouquet and fetches a clay jug to place them in. They look cheerful on the wooden table.?nl <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> While ?Rosa is arranging the flowers, the supply closet where you changed into the maid uniform catches your eye. You remember how ?Rosa walked in on you. She seems to be pretending that none of that happened. You don't think she would tell anyone; she's always been so nice, after all. But what if she did??nl Seeing your face, ?Rosa seems to guess what you're thinking about. <<rosa>>M'lord, I must assure you that I saw nothing! While I must say that the new maid I saw in the kitchen looked quite lovely, I have no idea who she was. I swear on it!<</rosa>> <<player>>Wait- you thought I looked nice?<</player>> ?Rosa gives a small chuckle. <<rosa>>Well, yes, of course! You looked very cute.<</rosa>> <<player>>Oh- well, thank you, I suppose.<</player>> <</if>> ?Rosa smiles at you. You realize that she is one of the few people in the castle who expects nothing from you, and yet she has always been so kind.

<<player>>I was wondering, ?Rosa, whether you might like to spend a little time together, away from the castle?<</player>> ?Rosa looks surprised, but happy at the suggestion. <<rosa>>Oh my goodness, m'lord, that would be lovely! What do you have in mind?<</rosa>> <<player>>Perhaps we could go to the forest one afternoon. I felt free there, away from expectations.<</player>> <<rosa>>That sounds wonderful. You know, there's a beautiful waterfall in the forest. We could go there. I'll pack us some sandwiches!<</rosa>> You're surprised at how smoothly this is going. ?Rosa doesn't seem to think your suggestion is strange at all. She just looks excited. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> <<rosa>>You can wear your new outfit you looked so cute in!<</rosa>> <<player>>I- well, I suppose that makes sense. Yes.<</player>> <<else>> <<rosa>>I wonder though, won't the guards stop you from going out the castle, m'lord?<</rosa>> <<player>>Yes, they would. But luckily, ?Morgana has thought of a solution to that for me, I'll be wearing a disguise to sneak out.<</player>> She looks at you with a certain kind of awe. <<rosa>>How exciting, m'lord!<</rosa>> <</if>> <<rosa>>I'll put together a nice basket for us.

<<completequest rosa-date>> When you find ?Rosa, she is finishing packing a large picnic basket. She looks pretty even in her work outfit, and seems to have changed her hair for the occasion into two long braids woven with pink and blue flowers. You realize they must be from your bouquet. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> <<rosa>>Once you change into your outfit, we'll be ready to go, m'lord!<</rosa>> <<player>>Uh, yes, of course.

<<setlocation 'Waterfall'>> <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> As you walk through the meadow and into the forest, ?Rosa throws you a quick, encouraging glance. <<rosa>>I just wanted to say, m'lord, that I think it's nice that you're doing this. Wearing the outfit, I mean.<</rosa>> You're not sure how to respond to this, but she looks like she's waiting for you to say something. <<player>>Well, thank you for saying so, ?Rosa.<</player>> <</if>> You and ?Rosa chat idly as you walk together to the waterfall. When you arrive, you lay out a blanket together and sit down, watching the water cascading from the falls. <<rosa>>I'm happy that you asked me here, m'lord.<</rosa>> <<player>>I'm happy that you came, ?Rosa. Why don't you call me by my name, since no one is watching us here?<</player>> ?Rosa laughs, her eyes crinkling adorably at the edges. <<rosa>>Of course, ?player. It feels funny, but I like saying your name.<</rosa>> She meets your eyes, a smile playing on her lips. You can't help but smile back. <<rosa>>Are you hungry after our walk?<</rosa>> She opens the picnic basket and pulls out a spread of picnic foods. There are the promised sandwiches, but also fresh fruit, salads, pastries, and a jug of wine. <<player>>?Rosa, you didn't have to bring so much food for just the two of us!<</player>> <<rosa>>I know, ?player, I just like to take care of you, is all.<</rosa>> <<decision 'Enjoy the food and drink' 'Rosa Date Forest 2'>><</decision>>

You enjoy a long, slow lunch together, chatting and laughing about any topic that comes to mind. After what must have been hours, you feel comfortably full and slightly tipsy as you lie back on the blanket. ?Rosa joins you, her cheeks pink from the wine, staring up at the canopy above. <<rosa>>I'm so happy right now, ?player. I wish I could stay here forever.<</rosa>> She twirls a finger absent-mindedly through your hair. The sudden contact surprises you, but you can't help but relax into it. For a few moments, you lie in comfortable silence. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> <<player>>Do you really believe I look good in the maid outfit, ?Rosa?<</player>> She continues to play with your hair, a soft smile on her face. <<rosa>>I really do, ?player. I would be happy if you wore it every day.<</rosa>> <<else>> <<player>>Do you really not care that I'm a prince, ?Rosa?<</player>> She continues to play with your hair, a soft smile on her face. <<rosa>>I care not for titles, ?player. I simply enjoy you and your company.<</rosa>> <</if>> You reach a hand up to cover hers, and feel her soft, warm skin beneath yours. Still smiling, her eyes meet yours. <<decision 'Lean in for a kiss' 'Rosa Kiss'>><</decision>> <<decision 'Allow the moment to pass' 'Rosa End Date'>><</decision>>

You lean in for a kiss and feel ?Rosa's soft lips meet yours, her fingers still tangled in your hair. She kisses you back slowly and deliberately, as though she is savoring every moment. When you pull away for air, she is smiling again. <<rosa>>Oh, ?player, how I've wanted to do that for so long.<</rosa>> <<player>>You- really?<</player>> <<rosa>>I think I was hiding it, even from myself. But I have.<</rosa>> You kiss her again, this time even more deeply, desire growing in your chest. She moves closer to you and the smell of her hair fills your nose. When you pull apart again, she looks a little flustered. <<rosa>>I can't believe I get to do this with you, ?player. I don't want to move too fast now that it's really happening.<</rosa>> <<player>>Let's just do this today, then?<</player>> Looking reassured, she leans back in for another kiss. You stay this way, sharing kisses, until the light starts to dim and you realize it is time to head back to the castle. You pack up the remainder of the picnic and walk back together, sharing sweet conversation. You share a final, secret kiss before ?Rosa returns to her work in the kitchen. <<decision 'Change out of your disguise and part ways with Rosa' 'Hallway'>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <<include 'Outfit Standard'>> <<addcounter 'rosa-breakfast' 3>> <</decision>>

After a moment, you remove your hand. ?Rosa looks away and withdraws her own hand from your hair. For a few moments, you both watch the leaves above gently swaying in the breeze. <<player>>It will be getting dark soon. Perhaps we should make our way back to the castle now.<</player>> ?Rosa nods, looking disappointed. <<rosa>>Yes, of course, m'lord. Allow me to pack up.<</rosa>> <<decision 'Head back to the castle'>> ?Rosa packs up the remainders of the picnic and you walk back to the castle together, the conversation more awkward than before. <<decision 'Change out of your disguise and part ways with Rosa' 'Hallway'>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <<include 'Outfit Standard'>> <<addcounter 'rosa-breakfast' 3>> <</decision>> <</decision>>

Before you can get out of bed, you hear a soft knock on the door and ?Rosa's voice from the other side. <<rosa>>Are you awake, m'lord? I've brought you your breakfast again!<</rosa>> You quickly sit upright in bed and do your best to fix your hair. <<player>>Come in, ?Rosa!<</player>> She brings a tray into the room, shutting the door behind herself, and places it carefully on your lap. You see yet again a luxurious array of breakfast foods, plus a small bouquet in a tiny pot. You notice that the crock of butter has a small image of a flower drawn in it. <<player>>This looks absolutely wonderful, ?Rosa. I am grateful for all the time you must have put into this meal.<</player>> She gives you a cheerful smile. <<rosa>>I woke up early to get started on the pastries, and to pick the flowers! Did you know that the best time to pick flowers is early in the morning, once the dew has dried?<</rosa>> You feel a flutter in your stomach as she looks at you, and you remember the feeling of her lips on yours... But you also remember her asking not to move too fast, so you try to focus on the conversation. <<player>>It seems like you have a special appreciation for flowers.<</player>> <<rosa>>Oh, I do, they're just so beautiful, aren't they? I know most of the flowers that grow in this area. As a girl I would spend hours in the forest looking for the rarest blooms...<</rosa>> She looks into the distance wistfully. This gives you an idea. Perhaps to show your appreciation to ?Rosa, you could bring her some of those rare flowers. <<player>>That sounds lovely. Which were your favorites, may I ask?<</player>> She looks thrilled to be asked about this topic. <<rosa>>Goodness, what a difficult choice!<</rosa>> She pauses, considering the question. Your eyes stray to her hair, and you remember the scent when you were close to her. <<rosa>>I adore a species of blue flower that grows by the waterfall. They glow in the dark, and if you pick them at night, they keep glowing for days. I also love the pink flowers with heart-shaped petals that grow in the south of the forest.<</rosa>> She smiles to herself, clearly thinking back to her adventures as a girl. <<rosa>>I also used to love the special purple roses that the forest druid ?Hyssop grows. They have the most wonderful smell, though I hear ?Hyssop uses them for dye.<</rosa>> <<player>>You seem to know a lot about flowers. Perhaps you could tell me more some time, away from the castle.<</player>> ?Rosa gives you a bright look. <<rosa>>You know I would love that, ?player.<</rosa>> There is a brief moment as you look at each other. Subconsciously, you lean in toward her. <<rosa>>I really must return to my work now, but I hope that you enjoy the breakfast.<</rosa>> She looks at though she is about to turn away, but then stops herself. Instead, she leans forward and plants a short but sweet kiss on your cheek. You breath in deeply, the scent of her filling your nose. She pulls away, blushing. <<rosa>>I'll see you later, then.<</rosa>> <<player>>You can count on it, ?Rosa.<</player>> She smiles at you, then turns and scurries out of the chamber. <<decision 'Get up' 'Bedroom'>> <<startquest rosa-flowers>> <</decision>>

You find ?Rosa rolling out a large amount of pie dough. She looks up as you enter. <<rosa>>Hello, there, m'lord! Can I help you with anything?<</rosa>> <<player>>Yes, actually. I was wondering if you could tell me again about your favorite flowers.<</player>> She puts down her rolling pin, looking confused. <<rosa>>Well, there are the blue flowers that grow by the waterfall. They're the ones that glow when you pick them in darkness. Then there are the pink ones with heart-shaped petals that grow in the south of the forest, and the purple roses that ?Hyssop cultivates.<</rosa>> <<player>>Thank you, that's all I needd to know...<</player>> ?Rosa narrows her eyes at you for a moment and then gives you an amused expression. <<rosa>>I'm sure there's no reason at all why you're asking.<</rosa>> <<player>>None at all!<</player>> She chuckles and continues rolling out her pie dough. <<rosa>>Well, I'll see you later then, m'lord!<</rosa>> <<decision 'Leave the kitchen' 'Hallway'>><</decision>>

<<addtag rosa-blue-flower>> <<img "rosa/blue_flower.jpg">> Though your surroundings are unfamiliar in the dark, you quickly find your way to the waterfall by following the sound of rushing water. As you approach the falls, you immediately see a patch of glowing blue flowers near the water.?nl You pick a handful of the flowers. Their soft glow illumates the space around you like a candle, making the forest seem less foreboding. You're sure ?Rosa will love these. <<decision 'Make your way back into the forest' 'Forest'>><</decision>>

<<money 'mushrooms' true>> <<player>>I heard that you grow some very special purple roses.<</player>> ?Hyssop looks at you with excitement. <<hyssop>>Ah, my Tyrian Roses?

I actually was hoping to take a few back for her, since she is such a fan.<</player>> ?Hyssop looks thrilled that anyone would be interested in their flowers. Thankfully, they also seem completely oblivious to the implications of you bringing ?Rosa flowers. <<hyssop>>I remember ?Rosa used to come by and ask for my roses! That was before I invented my system of trading my creations for mushrooms.

You sneak toward the bandit camp, doing your best to stick to the shadows. Is this really where ?Rosa was referring to when she mentioned the "south of the forest"? It seems as though she can't have been speaking about anywhere else, but it's hard to imagine someone like ?Rosa walking around here.?nl You creep close enough to hear the sounds of voices and raucous laughter.

<<player>>I was wondering, ?Rosa, whether you might enjoy spending some more time together, away from the castle?<</player>> ?Rosa's smile grows somehow even bigger. <<rosa>>I would like that very much, ?player! I really would.<</rosa>> <<player>>Now that I have my disguise, perhaps we could go to the local tavern for a drink? Like normal people do.<</player>> ?Rosa giggles at the thought of this. <<rosa>>That sounds lovely. I could go in the evening sometime, after my work is done.<</rosa>> <<player>>Consider it a date, then.<</player>> ?Rosa tucks a strand of hair behind her ear, blushing slightly. <<rosa>>I'll see you then!<</rosa>> <<decision 'Leave the kitchens' 'Hallway'>> <<startquest rosa-date-2>> <</decision>>

<<completequest rosa-date-2>> You find ?Rosa tidying the kitchen after her day's work. She neatly stacks away some pots under the counter and straightens to greet you, smiling shyly. <<rosa>>Good evening, m'lord! Are you here to go on a little <i>excursion</i>, as you called it?<</rosa>> She gives you a conspiratorial wink. You realize that she, adorably, has a little bit of flour on one cheek. <<player>>Indeed I am. Although, I can't help but notice you have something on your face...<</player>> ?Rosa looks mortified and starts rubbing at her face, but totally misses the spot. <<player>>Ah, no, there's a bit of flour, just there...<</player>> Blushing, ?Rosa takes a step closer to you. <<rosa>>I can't see it. Do you mind?<</rosa>> You feel a slight flutter in your stomach as you reach out to her, gently wiping the flour off yourself. She keeps eye contact with you the whole time. <<rosa>>Thank you so much. How embarrassing! I must have rubbed some on my face when I was baking earlier...<</rosa>> <<player>>No need to be embarrassed. Are you ready to go?<</player>> ?Rosa nods, looking around the kitchen. <<rosa>>I'll just put away the last couple things while you change.<</rosa>> <<decision 'Change into your disguise and leave the castle' 'Rosa Date 2 Walk Town'>><</decision>>

<<include 'Outfit Disguise'>> <<setlocation 'Road'>> You change into your disguise and walk out of the castle with ?Rosa. You pass by the guards without issue, and it occurs to you that they have likely started to recognize you as a regular <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>castle maid<<else>>castle manservant<</if>>.?nl On your way to the tavern, ?Rosa gives you a shy look out of the corner of her eye. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> <<rosa>>I feel lucky, you know.<</rosa>> You throw her a quick glance. <<player>>What do you mean?<</player>> <<rosa>>To be spending the evening with you, especially when you look so pretty.<</rosa>> This comment takes you aback, so you find yourself just staring at her for a moment. She smiles at you encouragingly. <<player>>Well, thank you, ?Rosa. I could say the same about you.<</player>> She blushes, still smiling at you. <<else>> <<rosa>>I feel lucky, you know.<</rosa>> You throw her a quick glance. <<player>>What do you mean?<</player>> <<rosa>>To be spending the evening with you, away from the castle, like normal folks.<</rosa>> She seems very sincere about this comment, and you have to smile. <<player>>I feel lucky, too.<</player>> <</if>> You continue walking, chatting and laughing together until you arrive at the tavern. <<decision 'Go inside and find a table' 'Rosa Date 2 Tavern'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Tavern'>> The tavern is even more bustling than usual. There are few empty seats left, so you and ?Rosa squeeze into a tiny table in a corner. The table is so small that your knees touch, not that you mind. A barmaid comes to take your orders, and after a few moments you settle in with your drinks.?nl ?Rosa takes a sip of her ale and looks at you happily. <<rosa>>So, ?player, what is it like living something like a normal life for the first time?<</rosa>> You gulp awkwardly as you only now realise you haven't yet told her your new name. You look around quickly to see if anyone is listening to your conversation. Luckily, the other patrons seem absorbed in their own affairs, as you quietly speak to her. <<player>>Uhm, ?Rosa, there's something I haven't told you yet. For this disguise to work well I've decided to take up a new name: ?newname. I know it's a little weird but could you please refer to me with that when we're outside like this?<</player>> You look at her with an awkward smile, it probably sounds like you're being paranoid but you really hope she understands. <<rosa>>Oh! I am so sorry, I hadn't even though of that! Of course I will do that, ?titleR!... I mean ?newname!<</rosa>> <<player>>Thank you for understanding. I hope you don't mind.<</player>> <<rosa>>Of course not! I will get used to it. It's a nice name.<<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>> And very pretty too, that fits you.<</if>><</rosa>> <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>> You blush and look away awkwardly. <</if>> <<rosa>>But enough about that, I still want to ask my question: What is it like for you to pretend to be a normal person like this?<</rosa>> You look around the table again to make sure nobody is watching as you lean closer to ?Rosa whisper in her ear. <<player>>Well, one of the best parts is being able to do things like this with you.<</player>> ?Rosa pulls back to look you in the eyes. Seeing your sincerity, she smiles broadly. <<rosa>>That's my favorite part, as well.<</rosa>> She lays a hand palm-up on the tiny table, and locks eyes with you, as if inviting you to place your hand on hers. You do so, and feel her warm skin beneath yours. She squeezes your hand tightly.?nl You continue chatting happily. She tells how she came to work in the castle, her love of cooking, and somehow even more information about her favorite flowers. In turn, you tell her about your experiences so far outside of the castle. You can't help but feel invigorated speaking to her, like a small fire is burning in your chest. Even more than last time, you want to be close to her. <<decision 'Continue chatting until late in the night' 'Rosa Date 2 Tavern More'>><</decision>>

<<increasetime 1 true>> Before you know it, you have talked for hours and it has grown quite late. Most of the other patrons at the tavern have gone home. ?Rosa giggles at you tipsily over her drink, looking around the room. You smile at her blurrily, your vision swimming from the alcohol. <<rosa>>Looks like it's just us left. Should we head back to the castle?<</rosa>> As she says this, a barmaid comes around to collect payment. <<if money('gold') >= 10>> You realize with relief that you have enough wages from working in this very tavern to pay your bill. You figure it's only fair that you pay, considering you technically have access to the entire castle treasury. You hand over the gold and stand up with ?Rosa to leave the tavern. <<changemoney 'gold' -10>> <<else>> You realize with embarrassment that you have no gold with you. You've never had to carry your own gold before, nor have you had to pay for goods yourself. ?Rosa identifies your look of panic and smiles at you. <<rosa>>It's no problem, ?name, I'm sure you're not used to having to pay for things like this! I can settle our bill.<</rosa>> She hands over the gold to the barmaid, who looks very confused. You stand up together and leave the tavern. <</if>> <<decision 'Walk back to the castle' 'Rosa Date 2 Walk Back'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Road'>> You walk together back to the castle, the buildings and fields around you silent as the townspeople sleep. You're finding walking in a straight line a bit difficult, but ?Rosa looks as beautiful as ever under the starlight. She clings close to you in the cold of the darkness.?nl <<decision 'Act on your desire to kiss her'>> You pass together through a small copse of trees. As you do so, you seem to both have the same idea at the same time, and you fall into an embrace against a tree. You find each other's mouths and kiss each other deeply. <<rosa>>Oh, ?player...<</rosa>> With some surprise, you feel her pushing her body against yours. While still kissing her, you run your hands across her back. She sighs into your mouth, and you get the impression she's enjoying this just as much as you. <<player>>?Rosa...<</player>> You let your hands travel further, until they are moving over the curves of her breasts. She lets out a small moan as you do so, and you feel <<if settings.sph>>your tiny dick<<else>>yourself<</if>> growing hard. ?Rosa presses herself even more into you, and you wonder whether she can feel how aroused you are. She tangles her hands in your hair, kissing you passionately.?nl In the middle of kissing you, she somehow manages to lose her balance and falls to the ground. She giggles as you help pull her back to her feet. <<rosa>>Oh, ?player, I love being with you like this, but I do believe I have had too much to drink.<</rosa>> You desperately want to continue touching her, to be as close to her as possible, but you also don't want to push too hard. In any case, your own stomach is feeling queasy from the drink. <<player>>So have I, I think.<</player>> You laugh together for a moment, exchanging more kisses. <<player>>Shall we head back to the castle, then?<</player>> ?Rosa nods, smiling at you. She tangles her fingers in yours and gives you another kiss. <<decision 'Keep walking back to the castle' 'Rosa Date 2 End'>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Keep walking back to the castle' 'Rosa Date 2 End'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Kitchen'>> <<include 'Outfit Standard'>> <<addtag 'rosa-date-2-done'>> <<addcounter 'rosa-intimacy' 1>> You return to the kitchen, where you change out of your disguise. Before parting ways, ?Rosa makes sure no one else is around before giving you a parting kiss. <<rosa>>Goodnight, ?player. I had a lovely time. I hope we can spend more time together soon.<</rosa>> <<player>>As do I, ?Rosa.<</player>> She squeezes your hand and disappears toward her chambers. You watch her go, arousal simmering inside you, before heading to bed yourself. <<decision 'Go to your bedroom' 'Bedroom'>><</decision>>

You make sure no one is around as you head into the kitchen. ?Rosa is at the oven, checking on a huge loaf of bread that looks to be partway through baking. <<rosa>>Oh, ?titleR! Aren't you looking <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>lovely<<else>>handsome<</if>> today.<</rosa>> She smiles at you, and you feel a warmth spread through your chest. Embarrassingly, you also feel yourself blushing. She approaches you, coming just close enough be an appropriate distance if someone were to see you, but you sense that she wishes she could move closer.?nl You want to be closer to her, too. You look around the room, noticing the closed door to the larder. <<player>>Ah, could you perhaps...help me with something in the larder? I'm on the hunt for some...uh...peaches, but I'm not sure where to look.<</player>> ?Rosa catches the look on your face and gives you a conspiratorial wink. <<rosa>>Of course, ?titleR, I can certainly help you with that.<</rosa>> <<decision 'Go with Rosa into the larder' 'Rosa Handjob Larder'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Larder'>> You follow ?Rosa into the larder and close the door. The smell of fresh pastries hits your nose at the same moment that ?Rosa starts kissing you.?nl You fall together against a stack of wine barrels and you kiss her back, drinking in the smell of her hair as she moves against you. Your noses bump together awkwardly and she pulls away for a moment, chuckling. <<rosa>>You know, ?player, I've been wanting this since I last saw you.<</rosa>> You realize she is being totally sincere, and at the same moment, you realize you feel the same. Still, it feels difficult to say. <<player>>I-, uh, well, I want that too, ?Rosa.<</player>> She gives you a playful smile, a light pink color rising on her cheeks. <<rosa>>Do you think we could maybe, well, try something new?<</rosa>> You're not sure what she's referring to, but you can't imagine you would say no to whatever it is. <<player>>Um, y-yes, I would like that very much.<</player>> She runs her hand tentatively down your body, gently grazing her fingers over your crotch. You were already aroused by this situation, and now you feel <<if settings.sph>>your tiny dick<<else>>yourself<</if>> growing quite hard. <<if settings.sph>> As her hands run across your nearly non-existant bulge, she looks momentarily confused. She seems to come to terms with how small you are, however, because she quickly continues running her fingers over your crotch.?nl <</if>> You lean forward to kiss her again. She kisses you back while her hand gently massages you through your pants. Her touch already feels amazing, and you can hardly believe that you get to do something like this with ?Rosa. <<rosa>>I hope this feels good for you?<</rosa>> Good is such an understatement that you almost laugh. <<player>>It feels, uh, amazing...<</player>> As she continues to massage you, you reach your hands out and run them along her breasts. They feel warm and full in your hands, and you can't help but give them a light squeeze. ?Rosa giggles lightly while still kissing you.?nl Feeling the arousal building inside yourself, you reach a hand lower to dip under the folds of her dress. Though you aren't particularly experienced in this area, you find the space between her legs and begin to rub her gently through the fabric of her undergarment. <<rosa>>Ahhh, oh, yes, ?player, just a little to the left...<</rosa>> You move your hand a bit and continue to move your fingers on her. You are now very hard, <<if settings.sph>>not that this fact is very visible through your pants<<else>>and you're creating quite the tent in your pants<</if>>.?nl <<if settings.sph>> ?Rosa pulls away from kissing you, her face flushed. She gives you a quick look and, seeing the pleasure on your face, slowly pulls your pants down to reveal your tiny, hard cock. Not able to put her whole hand on it, she begins to massage you with a few fingers. She smiles at you playfully. <<rosa>>It's so cute!<</rosa>> You're not sure what to say to this, but her touch feels so good that you can't really focus on her comment anyway. <<else>> ?Rosa pulls away from kissing you, her face flushed. She gives you a quick look and, seeing the pleasure on your face, slowly pulls your pants down to reveal your erect penis. She wraps her hand around the shaft and begins to massage up and down. <</if>> <<player>>Oh, fuck, ?Rosa...<</player>> You can feel a wetness spreading through the fabric of her underwear now. Wanting to get closer to her, you fumble for a moment, reaching your hand inside the underwear. You feel the soft, warm wetness between her legs and continue to rub your fingers there.?nl Still kissing you, ?Rosa moans into your mouth as she moves herself against your hand. This somehow makes you even harder, watching her body move in pleasure like this. <<rosa>>That feels so good, ?player...<</rosa>> The movement of her <<if settings.sph>>fingers<<else>>hand<</if>> on your cock speeds up and you throw your head back, marvelling at how good this feels. You are both moaning together now, your breaths coming faster as the pleasure builds in your bodies.?nl Suddenly, ?Rosa gasps and closes her eyes in pleasure as a series of orgasmic waves move through her body. Just the sight of her cumming brings you to your climax as well, and you feel a euphoric release as your cum splatters over ?Rosa's hand. <<player>>Oh, ?Rosa...<</player>> There's a brief pause as you both come down from your orgasms, breathing heavily. You find yourself laughing a little bit, realizing that you just got a handjob in the castle larder. ?Rosa seems to realize why you are laughing and she laughs along with you.?nl As you're chuckling together, the smell of burning reaches your nose. <<rosa>>Oh no, the bread!<</rosa>> <<decision 'Leave the larder' 'Rosa Handjob Larder 2'>><</decision>>

?Rosa rushes to the oven and pulls out a totally blackened loaf of bread. <<player>>Oh no, I-I'm sorry about the bread, ?Rosa!<</player>> ?Rosa sets the bread down on a counter and starts to laugh again. <<rosa>>Don't worry, ?titleR, I can make more bread! It was worth it to be able to...find some peaches for you in the larder.<</rosa>> You laugh with her as well, and immediately start coughing when you breathe in the smoke. <<rosa>>Really though, I should start making more bread now, otherwise there won't be any for dinner!<</rosa>> <<player>>Of course. I'll, uh, leave you to it, but I'll be back just as soon as I am...looking for some more fruit...<</player>> She giggles and waves as you turn to leave the kitchen, the pleasure you shared with her still fresh in your mind. <<decision 'Leave the kitchen' 'Hallway'>><</decision>>

<<addcounter 'sybille-night' 2>> <<if not hasTag('sybille-peeped')>> Descending the steps toward the dungeon, you see that ?Sybille's desk is dark and empty.

You sneak further into the dungeons, staying hidden in the shadows. From the darkness, you make out a white-haired figure standing inside one of the locked dungeon cells. This must be ?Sybille, but instead of her usual black dress, she is now wearing a skin-tight black leather suit that reveals every curve of her body. Your eyes linger over her elegant shape for a moment before you realize she is standing over another figure. <<img "sybille/sybille_dominatrix_{theme}.jpg">> <<sybille>>Do you like this, prisoner? I thought I ordered you to <i>moan</i> when your mistress touches you. This transgression of yours will require punishment.<</sybille>> In the dim candlelight you can just make out that the prisoner is a dark-haired woman. She is on her hands and knees on the cold stone ground, unclothed except for a set of manacles around her wrists and a blindfold around her eyes. She is faced away from you. You can see her small asshole and the soft folds below, shiny with wetness.?nl The prisoner moans loudly in pleasure as ?Sybille whips her ass, leaving red marks behind. <<sybille>>I see how wet you are, prisoner. I know you want me to touch you. Stand up and spread your legs.<</sybille>> The prisoner stands up and ?Sybille locks her wrists to metal rings set into the dungeon cell wall. The prisoner moans as she spreads her legs submissively.?nl ?Sybille runs the end of her whip down the prisoner's body, moving over the curve of her breasts and stopping just before the space between her legs. <<sybille>>Do you want your mistress to touch you, prisoner?<</sybille>> The prisoner opens her mouth to speak, but ?Sybille immediately whips her again, this time across the breasts. <<sybille>>I told you not to speak, girl. You are only allowed to moan.<</sybille>> The prisoner lets out a load moan as the whip hits and nods forcefully.?nl ?Sybille retrieves a small set of metal clamps that had been hanging on the wall and clips them to the prisoner's erect nipples. The woman cries out in a mixture of pain and pleasure. <<sybille>>I will allow you to speak to your mistress but one time. If you want me to touch you, you must whisper into my ear all that you know about Master ?Leopold's private affairs.<</sybille>> ?Sybille leans her head expectantly toward the prisoner's mouth. You watch with amazement as the woman begins to whisper into ?Sybille's ear, her legs shaking in orgasmic anticipation. Is this how ?Sybille acquires her information??nl After a few moments, ?Sybille straightens and smiles dangerously. <<sybille>>That's a good prisoner. You deserve to be rewarded.<</sybille>> ?Sybille trails a hand down the woman's body, moving torturously slowly, until she reaches the wetness between her legs. She slowly inserts a finger into the prisoner's pussy. The prisoner moans again, barely able to remain standing on her shaky legs. ?Sybille begins to fuck the woman with her fingers, her other hand rubbing her wet clit. <<sybille>>Since you are a good little prisoner, you will cum when I tell you to. Until then, you are not allowed to cum.<</sybille>> The prisoner barely manages to nod, her body moving in waves of pleasure as ?Sybille moves between her legs. <<sybille>>Not yet, girl...<</sybille>> The woman's moans become louder as she is clearly approaching orgasm. She slides down the wall slightly, pushing herself harder onto ?Sybille's fingers as her legs lose the ability to hold her upright. <<sybille>>Not quite yet, good little prisoner...<</sybille>> ?Sybille's hands are moving furiously, and the prisoner's moans are now echoing forcefully through the dungeon. <<sybille>>Good prisoner. Cum for your mistress.<</sybille>> The woman gives a final shout as she cums, her body rippling over ?Sybille's fingers as her orgasm hits her in a series of waves. Her legs give out and she hangs from her manacles, exhausted. <<sybille>>You have pleased your mistress, prisoner. Perhaps I will return to you tomorrow, if you are lucky.<</sybille>> As ?Sybille begins to turn from the prisoner, you realize that this is your cue to leave.

<<addtag 'lumberjack-peeped'>> You sneak deeper into the dungeons until you find ?Sybille inside an unlocked dungeon cell. She is standing straddled above a man who is lying on the floor. From your position, you can see that he is large, burly, and muscled, with ruddy skin and a bushy beard. He is currently gagged and naked except for a black leather harness that attaches to a metal ring that is snug around the base of his large, hard cock. <<if settings.sph>> Before you can even imagine wearing such a ring yourself, you realize it would be impossible. Your own penis is small enough that the ring would simply fall off. <</if>>?nl Sybille is once again wearing the black dominatrix outfit. <<img "sybille/sybille_dominatrix_{theme}.jpg">> <<sybille>>That's a good boy. Your mistress enjoys seeing you become so hard.<</sybille>> ?Sybille lifts a foot and slowly presses her black leather boot onto the large man's penis. Despite the aggressiveness of the act, you're surprised at how careful ?Sybille is with her movements. She is obviously not trying to hurt the man. <<sybille>>I think you deserve a special treat this time, my little woodcutter, considering you have brought me such <i>valuable</i> information recently.<</sybille>> From the floor, the man lets out a low moan through his gag. Underneath ?Sybille's foot, his cock twitches. <<sybille>>You are a lucky boy. Today, your mistress will allow you to pleasure <i>her</i>.<</sybille>> You watch as ?Sybille, still straddling the man, undoes a series of small buttons around the crotch of her black leather suit. As the suit opens it reveals a small tuft of white hair and a glimpse of her soft, parted lips.?nl She removes the man's gag and lowers herself gracefully onto his mouth. He begins to lick and suck at her clit, eager and sloppy. ?Sybille throws her head back with a sigh of pleasure. <<sybille>>Ahh, that's my good little woodcutter. You exist to serve your mistress.<</sybille>> You watch for several minutes as ?Sybille rides the man's face, letting out soft moans. The man's cock is almost bursting out of its metal ring now, and he too is moaning into her. <<sybille>>Fuck, my good little fuck-toy...<</sybille>> The man increases his speed, his face now shining with wetness, as ?Sybille pushes herself hungrily into him. <<sybille>>Mmm, keep going, boy...<</sybille>> With a final thrust of her hips against the man's mouth, ?Sybille cries out softly as she orgasms, her back arching and her mouth open in bliss. Beneath her, the man moans low into her as his own cock explodes. Cum shoots into the air, splattering over his body.?nl After catching her breath for a few moments, ?Sybille stands up slowly and surveys the man with a smile. She drags a boot across his chest, smearing his cum over his skin. <<sybille>>I see you have made a mess of yourself. I will allow it this time, since you performed so well for your mistress, but I will not be so lenient next time.<</sybille>> As ?Sybille begins to rebutton her suit, you suspect it is again time to leave.

The sound of a woman moaning leads you deeper in the dungeons, to a familiar cell. ?Sybille is inside, dressed in her tight black leather suit. The dark-haired woman prisoner you saw before is tied to a bare wooden cot with a series of intricate knots. She is naked, in a prostrate position, her face on the cot and her ass facing upward. <<img "sybille/sybille_dominatrix_{theme}.jpg">> <<sybille>>I see how much you are enjoying this, prisoner. I am sure you want nothing more than for me to touch you right now.<</sybille>> The woman moans as ?Sybille gently moves a large white feather across her clit, teasing her. Even from the shadows, you can see the space between the woman's legs is shining wet and swollen with arousal. <<sybille>>I want to hear you beg.<</sybille>> <<say 'Prisoner'>>Please, mistress... Please touch me...<</say>> ?Sybille smiles, withdrawing the feather. The woman moans, begging louder. <<sybille>>You belong to your mistress, prisoner. I decide when you feel pleasure.<</sybille>> Breathing heavily, the woman moves within her bonds, searching desperately for stimulation. <<say 'Prisoner'>>Yes, mistress... Please touch me, please...<</say>> ?Sybille strokes the woman's clit with the feather again. The woman's moans grow louder and louder as ?Sybille teases her. Just before the moans reach a crescendo, she removes the feather once more.?nl Though her back is turned to you, you swear you hear a smile in ?Sybille's voice when she speaks. <<sybille>>This is the third time you have come to watch me at my work, ?title. Why don't you step out of the shadows and come closer?<</sybille>> You freeze, as though ?Sybille might forget you're there if you stay quiet. How did she know you were watching this whole time, and why didn't she mention it before? You could run out of the dungeons right now and pretend this never happened... On the other hand, she seems to be inviting you to join this exciting situation; perhaps you should step out of the shadows... <<decision 'Step forward and join Sybille' 'Sybille Peeping 3 Join' depravity medium>><</decision>> <<decision 'Flee out of the dungeons' 'Hallway' virtue small>><</decision>>

You step forward from the shadows as ?Sybille turns to face you. Her smile grows wider. <<sybille>>Step into the cell, then, ?title.<</sybille>> She produces a key from a small pocket in her suit and unlocks the cell door. As you step inside, still processing how ?Sybille could have known about all your little excursions to the dungeons, she looks you up and down with an exacting eye. <<sybille>>This prisoner needs punishing, ?title. She may yet tell us valuable information. Would you prefer to join in, or watch?<</sybille>> You look at the prisoner, still breathing heavily in her vulnerable state. Could you be someone so dominant, and do with her as you wish? Perhaps there is also something enticing about imagining yourself in her place, the one being dominated... <<decision 'Help punish the prisoner' 'Sybille Peeping 3 Dom' dominance medium>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Watch, imagining yourself as the prisoner' 'Sybille Peeping 3 Sub' submissiveness medium>> <</decision>>

<<player>>I will assist, ?Sybille.<</player>> A flash of something like satisfaction flits across ?Sybille's face. She pulls a black leather flogger from the wall and hands it to you. <<sybille>>Try this, ?title. Strike her on the buttocks, here. You must be firm, but gentle in your punishment. True masters know the most information is learned from prisoners who are begging for more.<</sybille>> You grasp the flogger and release it onto the woman's ass. She moans, straining against her bonds in pleasure. It's a new feeling, being so intimately in control of someone's body in this way. You can see why ?Sybille seems to like it so much. <<sybille>>Do you like this, prisoner? The prince himself is punishing you. You are a lucky girl.<</sybille>> <<say 'Prisoner'>>?Title, I am yours to do with as you wish...<</say>> You continue striking the woman with the flogger, enjoying the flush of pink spreading across her ass. She moans louder with each hit. Behind you, ?Sybille watches with a dark smile. <<sybille>>Tell your prince what you want, prisoner.<</sybille>> <<say 'Prisoner'>>Let me cum, ?title... Please, let me cum...<</say>> While you continue flogging her, ?Sybille pulls a phallic leather object from the wall and runs it slowly along the prisoner's back and across her face. <<sybille>>You want to cum, prisoner? You know what you must give me.<</sybille>> ?Sybille leans close to the prisoner's mouth. The woman is now shaking, a brief touch away from orgasm. She whispers desperately into ?Sybille's ear.?nl ?Sybille straightens and smiles at you, looking satisfied. <<sybille>>Shall we allow her to cum, ?title?<</sybille>> Is ?Sybille really letting you make this decision? It could feel powerful, denying the prisoner her peak after so much teasing and build-up. But it could also be powerful to be the one to allow her to orgasm, to watch her body move through the pleasure at your command... <<decision 'Allow the prisoner to cum' 'Sybille Peeping 3 Dom Allowed'>><</decision>> <<decision 'Do not allow the prisoner to cum' 'Sybille Peeping 3 Dom Denied'>><</decision>>

<<player>>Good prisoners should be rewarded, ?Sybille.<</player>> ?Sybille nods at you. <<sybille>>The prince is right, prisoner. You have earned your pleasure.<</sybille>> ?Sybille runs the leather dildo down the prisoner's body and slowly pushes it inside of her. The woman cries out in pleasure, her body moving in a wave of ecstasy. You are distracted for a moment as you watch the prisoner's swollen lips stretch around the thick phallus, shining with slippery wetness.?nl Shaking your head, you refocus on your task. As you continue to flog the prisoner, her moans grow louder with each impact. <<if settings.sph>> You have to admit that being in control here is turning you on, though even the hardness in your pants is not enough to create even a small bulge. <<else>> You have to admit that being in control here is turning you on, and you feel a bulge growing in your pants. <</if>> <<sybille>>Good little prisoner.<</sybille>> ?Sybille pushes the dildo into the woman rhythmically, drawing cries of pleasure each time it reaches its deepest point. With practiced, coordinated movement, her other hand rubs the woman's clit. She increases her speed and soon the woman's cries are echoing through the dungeon. <<sybille>>You may cum now.<</sybille>> With a great shudder, the woman orgasms around the dildo as a final moan escapes her lips. She collapses as much as she can while tied up, her skin still shining pink in the places where you flogged her.?nl ?Sybille turns to you and holds out a hand for the flogger. <<sybille>>Excellent work, ?title. I think that concludes your education for today. I will see to it that the prisoner is made presentable again.<</sybille>> You can hardly believe what you just took part in, but at the same time you have to admit the whole experience was intoxicating. Perhaps you might return again some time... <<decision 'Leave the dungeons' 'Hallway'>><</decision>>

<<player>>No, I do not think every little secret should be so highly rewarded, ?Sybille.<</player>> ?Sybille gives you a long look. If you didn't know better, you might think she was impressed. <<sybille>>Indeed not, ?title.<</sybille>> The prisoner struggles futilely against her bonds. <<say 'Prisoner'>>Please, ?title! Please let me cum!<</say>> You flog her again, this time a touch harder, to remind her of her place. <<if settings.sph>> You have to admit that being in control here is turning you on, though even the hardness in your pants is not enough to create even a small bulge. <<else>> You have to admit that being in control here is turning you on, and you feel a bulge growing in your pants. <</if>> <<player>>Not today, prisoner.<</player>> ?Sybille runs the leather phallus along the woman's body again, stopping just before reaching the space between her legs. The woman moans in anticipation, then in disappointment. <<sybille>>Perhaps you will be luckier tomorrow, girl.<</sybille>> ?Sybille turns to you and holds out a hand for the flogger. <<sybille>>Excellent work, ?title. I think that concludes your education for today. I will see to it that the prisoner is cleaned up.<</sybille>> You can hardly believe what you just took part in, but at the same time you have to admit the whole experience was intoxicating. Perhaps you might return again some time... <<decision 'Leave the dungeons' 'Hallway'>><</decision>>

<<player>>I would prefer to watch you as you work.<</player>> ?Sybille smiles, as though you are confirming what she already knows. She turns back to the prisoner. <<sybille>>You are lucky, prisoner. Today the prince himself is watching your punishment.<</sybille>> She retrieves a black leather flogger from the wall and begins to strike the woman's ass. The woman moans, straining against her bonds in pleasure. You imagine yourself in her place, tied with ropes, the feeling of the flogger hitting your own bare skin. <<say 'Prisoner'>>Mistress, I am yours to do with as you wish...<</say>> ?Sybille continues hitting the woman with the flogger, eliciting a flush of pink across her buttocks. The woman moans louder with each hit. You imagine your own ass burning from the impact of the flogger, the sting as it hits your flesh repeatedly.?nl <<if settings.sph>> You have to admit that imagining yourself in the prisoner's place is turning you on, though your tiny penis causes no bulge in your pants. Even ?Sybille would have no idea how your body is reacting right now. <<else>> You have to admit that imagining yourself in the prisoner's place is turning you on, and you feel a bulge growing in your pants. <</if>> <<sybille>>Tell your mistress what you want, prisoner.<</sybille>> <<say 'Prisoner'>>Let me cum, mistress... Please, let me cum...<</say>> <<sybille>>You want to cum, prisoner? You know what you must give me.<</sybille>> ?Sybille leans close to the prisoner's mouth. The woman is now shaking and sweaty with desire. She whispers fervently into ?Sybille's ear. After a moment, ?Sybille straightens, looking satisfied. <<sybille>>Since the prisoner has given me what I want, I will reward her. Do you know how, ?title?<</sybille>> ?Sybille runs the flogger gently, tantalizingly along your shoulder and down your arm. She does not strike, but simply allows you to feel its touch. You are surprised at how arousing this simple gesture of power is. <<player>>Ah- well, I can guess...<</player>> ?Sybille smiles at you, withdrawing the flogger. She hangs the flogger back on the wall and retrieves a phallic leather object. <<sybille>>What she wants is to be dominated, ?title. You might know something about that.<</sybille>> ?Sybille turns away from you. Slowly, gently, she runs the leather phallus down the prisoner's body and pushes it inside of her. The woman moans, moving against her bonds in a wave of pleasure. For a moment, you imagine someone doing the same to you. <<sybille>>Good little prisoner...<</sybille>> ?Sybille pushes the dildo into the woman rhythmically, drawing cries of ecstasy each time it reaches its deepest point. With practiced, coordinated movement, her other hand rubs the woman's clit. She increases her speed and soon the woman's cries are echoing through the dungeon. You find yourself, in some way, jealous of this prisoner. <<sybille>>You may cum now.<</sybille>> With a great shudder, the woman orgasms around the dildo as a final moan escapes her lips. She collapses as much as she can while tied up, her skin still shining pink in the places where ?Sybille flogged her.?nl ?Sybille turns to you, a smirk on her lips. <<sybille>>I hope you learned something while watching me work, ?title. I think that concludes your education for today. I will see to it that the prisoner is cleaned up.<</sybille>> You can hardly believe that you just watched this interaction, but at the same time you have to admit the whole experience was intoxicating. Perhaps you might return again some time... <<decision 'Leave the dungeons' 'Hallway'>><</decision>>

<<player>>I received the note you left me. What's with all the secrecy, ?Sybille? Did you learn anything about the assassin?<</player>> She stands infront of you clasping her hands as she looks at you with an intense expression. <<sybille>>I'm sorry, ?title. Normally I would announce this kind of news to the entire council during a meeting but the nature of my discovery has lead me to believe it to be best to share it with only you.<</sybille>> You stare at her with a puzzled look on your face as you wait for her to explain further. <<sybille>>Unfortunately, after interrogating the would-be assassin, I now have reason to believe the plan behind this failed attempt on your life did not originate from some other nation but instead was orchestrated by another member of the royal council.<</sybille>> Shocked, you take a step back as you look at her in disbelief. <<player>>?Sybille, are you certain? Why would someone betray me like that?<</player>> <<sybille>>I'm afraid I am quite certain about this, the assassin shared about a meeting with his secret benefactor, clearly describing a royal councillor. Curiously, he can't seem to give any specifications that narrow it down more than that. You can see now why I opted not to share this with the rest of the councillors now and instead wanted to discuss this only with you, ?title.<</sybille>> You're not quite sure what to say, this news troubles you deeply. <<sybille>>As for the motive behind such a heinous act, I am not quite sure why one of the councillors would want this. None of the councillors would stand to gain with your demise. Currently, since ?Andreas has ordered the entire castle on lockdown, there's no opportunity for something like this to happen again. You are - of course - under constant protection here.<</sybille>> You look away slightly concerned, the castle may be entirely secured but your new secret hobby of disguising yourself and sneaking out of the place is very likely a safety concern... As you look back at her you catch a glint in her eyes and the slightest hint of a knowing smile. <<sybille>>Is something troubling you, ?title? Something you would like to share?<</sybille>> Well... Perhaps it's best to share this with her... <<player>>Well, ?Sybille, I have actually been...<</player>> You stumble over your words as you feel like a kid that has to admit to their bad behaviour. <<sybille>>Sneaking off in a disguise together with ?Morgana?<</sybille>> <<player>>Wha... How did you know?<</player>> You have a look of utter surprise on your face as soon as she mentions this, how does she know about this? <<sybille>>It is my job to know, ?title. And fear not, your secrets are safe with me, of course. As for the safety concern, I think ?Morgana is right actually, from what I've gathered your disguise works quite well and perhaps ?Andreas is being overly protective right now.<</sybille>> You nod at her. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> You feel yourself blush at the thought that ?Sybille mentions your kitchen maid outfit like that. <</if>> <<sybille>>We cannot allow any council members to catch wind of what we know. What we need now is more information. Luckily, these little excursions of yours can prove to be useful to us right now.<</sybille>> <<player>>H- how so?<</player>> <<sybille>><<name andreas 'Chancellor'>> has a fondness for the ale at the local tavern and likes to do some of his dealings there as well. If you went undercover, working there, you could listen to the conversations. I could even tutor you in the art of spycraft.<</sybille>> <<player>>But why me? Why not use any official spy in your network? You must have someone in town, right?<</player>> <<sybille>>Yes, many. But unfortunately I cannot depend on them right now. I may be the official royal spymistress but that does not mean other councillors have their own network of information. You are one of the few people I know I can trust right now.<</sybille>> Working undercover at the tavern? That sounds extremely far outside of your comfort zone... But then again, getting out of the castle like that does sound very adventurous... You are quite conflicted and unsure what to do... <<sybille>>Take some time to think it over, ?title. I know it sounds like a dangerous idea but I believe you to be more than capable of it. I urge you to consider the importance of this mission.<</sybille>> <<player>>Very well... I will think it over... Thank you for sharing this all with me, ?Sybille.<</player>> <<sybille>>Of course, ?title. Please come find me in the morning when you are ready.<</sybille>> With that, you exit the dungeons and make your way back to the castle halls. You are quite perplexed by all this. Are you actually going to work at the tavern in order to spy on one of the councillors? <<decision 'Leave Sybille' 'Hallway'>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <<completequest sybille-note>> <<startquest sybille-tavern>> <</decision>>

<<completequest sybille-tavern>> You clear your throat as you stammer out the reason you are here. <<player>>I'm uh- r-ready for your plan ?Sybille.<</player>> Great, that was about the confidence level of a sack of potatoes. <<sybille>>Right. Well today will be simple, you'll just be giving a quick visit to the tavern to get yourself acquainted with the working environment. Don't worry, we'll have plenty of time to make you sound more self-assured later. Did you bring your disguise?<</sybille>> You nod at her as you show her your now trusted disguise. <<sybille>>Splendid. You can get changed here. I will be right back, I have some business down in the dungeon.<</sybille>> She opens the drawer of her desk and retrieves some kind of flogger as she stands up and leaves you in her office. The room is dark and the cold cobblestones keep a clear conformity to the dungeons itself, deeper down through the door ?Sybille just left through.?nl While she's gone, you suddenly get a spark of curiosity as you look over her now unguarded desk. On it, you see a letter that seems quite interesting and you quickly open it. <<note>> <<name sybille 'Lady Whispers' none>>,?nl Your wish is my command.<br> I will happily take on this important friend of yours as a new ?barworker.?nl - V <</note>> You read through the strange letter with suspicion. Is this talking about you? Before you get completely lost in thought, you quickly focus back to the task at hand. <<decision 'Change into your disguise' 'Sybille Tavern Preparation 2'>> <</decision>>

<<include 'Outfit Disguise'>> You deftly put on the <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>maid dress<<else>>manservant uniform<</if>>. You're strangely enough getting quite used to these clothes now, something you'd have never expected before. As if just on cue, you hear ?Sybille knock on the door to check if you are done before entering. <<player>>All finished!<</player>> She opens the door and enters the room. She moves over and leans against her desk as she eyes you up and down. <<sybille>>My, that is quite a good disguise, ?title. It looks like my reports were correct<<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>, you look very pretty<</if>>. I highly doubt people will recognise you in this.<</sybille>> <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>You blush as she mentions this, does she really think you look pretty in the dress? <</if>>You nod at her, you feel kind of proud that she actually approves of your disguise. <<player>>So does this mean I am now officially one of your spies?<</player>> A smile draws over her face. <<sybille>>Hah, well, there is one thing we are missing, ?title. Any good undercover spy needs to have a persona. Normally we would take time to craft an entire backstory but I don't feel that's necessary for now. All we need now is a name.<</sybille>> A new name? The feeling of using a new name somehow has you quite excited for this whole thing. You look at her as she continues. <<sybille>>Give yourself a new name, ?title. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>If you were a woman, what would you want to call yourself?<<else>>Any plausible name is fine.<</if>><</sybille>> You look at her, quite overwhelmed by this sudden but important decision. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>The idea of having to pick a feminine name somehow has you feeling quite strange... A thought crosses your mind: would this actually be your name if you were a woman instead?<</if>> <<player>>Uhm... a new name, that's difficult...<</player>> You stare towards the cold cobblestone walls as you go over a list of possible names in your head. ?Sybille is patiently waiting for your response. After a while you look at her, a fresh idea in your mind. <<timed 40ms>> <<player>>How about <div id='name-picker'><<textbox "$player.newname" `hasTag('crossdresser') ? 'Alexandra' : 'James'`>></div>?<</player>> <</timed>> <<decision 'Decide on the name'>> <<replace '#name-picker' 'transition'>>?newname<</replace>> <<replace "#portrait-container">><<include 'Portrait'>><</replace>> You look at her as she judges your new name. She stares at you with an intense look, seemingly mulling over your idea very seriously. The anticipation makes you quite nervous. After a mere few seconds that feel much longer to you she has seemingly made her decision as she makes an approving nod. <<sybille>>?newname... I like it. It fits you.<</sybille>> Hearing yourself being referenced with this new name has you feeling strangely confident. You're definitely going to need to get used to refer to yourself like that when you're disguised from now on. <<sybille>>Good, that settles it. You should have everything needed for us to start this little operation. Are you ready to be a spy, ?newname?<</sybille>> <<player>>I- I think so. I'm ready.<</player>> Your reluctance is definitely noticed by ?Sybille but it seems like she accepts that this is the best she's going to get from you now. <<sybille>>Glad to hear it. I have great confidence in you, ?title. And don't fret too much, today you won't be doing anything important yet. Simply head to the tavern and my contact will explain everything to you there. The goal is simply to get yourself acquainted with the environment.<</sybille>> You're not sure if she's actually telling the truth but hearing her say that she believes in you does give you a bit of confidence regardless. <<player>>Sounds like a plan... Well here I go then... Thank you, ?Sybille.<</player>> You say farewell to her as you step out of her office, now wearing your disguise and wielding a brand new name to go along with it. <<decision 'Head outside' 'Sybille Tavern Preparation 3'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Gatehouse'>> You step into the castle halls and head toward the front gates. Even though you're quite used to the guards checking you over whenever you leave the castle like this, you still feel anxious as you head in the direction of the exit. Strangely, it looks like you won't have to deal with any of that today, there seems to be no guard in sight. Curious. You've never seen this happen before.?nl You decide not to mull on the thought for too long as slowly push open the castle gates and carefully peek outside. No guards outside either. It seems like ?Sybille set this up for you to make your exit easier. Though her methods are quite mysterious, you realise it's pretty nice to have the Royal Spymistress look out for you like this.?nl <<decision 'Exit the castle' 'Sybille Tavern Preparation 4'>> <</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Road'>> As you exit the castle, you take a breath of fresh air and head down the road towards town. Here you are, dressed like a <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>maid<<else>>servant<</if>>, on your way to work at the local tavern. It's a very strange feeling, you've never really worked a single day in your life and you never expected to work like this.?nl You walk down the dirt road, passing the mighty stone walls and leave them behind you. A heap of mixed feelings flow through you in this very moment. Are you even good enough for this whole spying thing? Is it really safe to go out on your own? <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>Why do you actually keep crossdressing like this?<<else>>Why are you pretending to be servant like this?<</if>> The overwhelming thoughts nearly get to you as you feel your breath quickening, panic setting in...?nl You stop to lean against a tree, trying to catch your breath before you actually break down. It doesn't seem to work, countless thoughts of your current situation start flooding your mind and you feel a cold sweat setting in. Your eyes quickly dart around, looking for something to focus on to try and distract yourself. In a moment of careful coincidence, something seems to find you instead.?nl Like a slow giant, peeking out over the trees, the piercing warmth of a morning sun washes over you. The rising light, both ponderous and sudden, makes you cover your eyes from it's full might. The morning cold making way for a new dawn. Your panic unexpectedly retreated, a moment of peace catches you off-guard and by force.?nl Excitement. The word somehow now dangles in your mind. It's the answer you instinctively cling to. It's why it doesn't matter whether's safe. It's why you think you'll make a somewhat decent spy. It's the <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>frightening <</if>>answer to why you disguise yourself like this. It excites you. And that is enough.?nl You take a deep breath and continue your journey down the dirt path, feeling quite different. It feels like a new chapter in your life. Prince ?player, the undercover tavern spy. Or, well, ?newname, actually... <<decision 'Set out for the tavern' 'Chapter'>> <<set $chapter = 'Chapter Three'>> <<set $chaptertarget = 'Tavern Velma Intro'>> <<set $chaptertimeskip = false>> <</decision>>

You've been working at the tavern for quite a bit now and you get the sense that you're doing quite well, it might be time to discuss the next steps with ?Velma. As soon as you enter the tavern to try to spot her. She doesn't seem to be anywhere in the main room, it seems like she must be in her office so you head in that direction.?nl You carefully knock on her door and wait patiently for a response. <<velma>>Come in.<</velma>> You head into her small office and see her writing something in a large book, it looks like the financial accounts of the place. You sit across from her as she stops with what she's doing to give you the full attention. <<velma>>Ah, ?newname. What can I do for you?<</velma>> <<player>>?MadameV, I have been working here for a bit of time now and I'm starting to feel like I'm really fitting in. I think the cover is really working and I think I'm ready for the next steps in spying on ?Andreas.<</player>> She looks at you with a serious expression. <<velma>>Hmm...

You walk into the courtyard and see <<name wymerus 'Lord Marshal'>> there, standing next to the training dummies together with his squire. He waves you over when he sees you. <<if getStatLevel('swordsmanship') < $player.levelexpectation + 1>> <<wymerus>>Young prince! Are you here to practice your skills with the sword?

Let's have at it.<</player>> ?Wymerus and ?Caspar both stand there, unmoving. <<wymerus>>I'm sorry, ?title. I fear we already went through all your forms for this week. I don't want to tire you out with any more training. Please, give your body some time to rest. Your muscles could use a breather.<</wymerus>> Slightly disappointed, you put down the sparring blade again. <<player>>Oh, well. I suppose it's good to take a rest sometimes.<</player>> <<wymerus>>Yes, please come back after the next council meeting, I think it's good to start the next lessons then.<</wymerus>> You nod at ?Wymerus and walk away from them. <<decision "Leave" 'Hallway'>><</decision>> <</if>>

<<addcounter 'wymerus' 0.5>> <<addcounter 'caspar' 0.5>> <<increasetime 1 true>> You grab a wooden sparring sword and take your place opposite to <<name caspar>>. <<include `either('Wymerus Lessons 1', 'Wymerus Lessons 2', 'Wymerus Lessons 3')`>> <<changestat swordsmanship 1>> <<decision 'Thank Caspar and Wymerus and take your leave' 'Hallway'>><</decision>>

You have an exciting sparring match while <<name wymerus>> shouts commands from the sideline. Even though you got a few good hits in, <<name caspar>> manages to connect his sword with your neck, winning him the match.

After a bit of practicing, <<name wymerus>> comes over and stands behind <<name caspar>> to give him tips on his stance. Being much larger than <<name caspar>>, he reaches over his arms and shows him how to properly hold the sword. You're not quite sure but you think you notice <<name caspar>>'s cheeks blushing.

<<name wymerus>> is especially fierce in his coaching today, he's shouting at you over and over. While you're figuring out how to take a proper defensive stance, <<name caspar>> spots an opening and managed to knock you over. While you're lying on the floor, <<name wymerus>> walks over and offers you a hand. As he lifts you, you feel how his big muscled arm easily pulls you up again.

You walk up to ?Wymerus and without even properly greeting him you show him the book you found in the library. <<player>>Look, ?Wymerus! I found an interesting book in our library, it's describing a strange fighting technique used after a heated debate.<</player>> <<wymerus>>Oh, hello, ?title. An interesting book, you say? Let me take a look at this thing.<</wymerus>> He takes the blue book from your hands and inspects it, he flips through it for a little bit and then hands it back to you. <<wymerus>>Ah yes, "The Duel of Words and Blades", I'm familiar with it.<</wymerus>> <<player>>You know of it? Great! I was actually wondering if we could perhaps practice the moves described in the book, it reads to be quite effective.<</player>> <<wymerus>>It's definitely effective, yes. Lord Lysander uses a technique that seems like it must be impossible to perform, defeating a far more skilled opponent like that. But that's just it: it's impossible.<</wymerus>> You look at him perplexed as you wait for him to continue explaining. <<wymerus>> I have studies this technique in the past and I have found Lord Lysander's secret. It's not about his skillful stance at all, well, partly I suppose. But, the effectiveness of his moves are due to one thing only: that magical sword he's carrying.<</wymerus>> <<player>>Wait, he used a special sword to win that fight?<</player>> <<wymerus>>Yes, ?sword, a mythical sword that bestows the wielder with an abundance of finesse in battle. With proper training, the sword allows you to dance around your foes, a force of wind. Lord Lysander used the sword to win the duel and then played it off like a secret technique he mastered. The story is nothing more than a fabrication...<</wymerus>> <<player>>So that means I won't be able to fight like that as well?<</player>> Only now does ?Wymerus notice your disappointment from learning you won't be able to fight like that. <<wymerus>>Well, I suppose I could teach you the technique, but it's really no use without having that sword. I actually heard your father mention it a few years ago, something about trying to find it by raiding a specific castle. But even if he did find it, you know how possessive the ?King gets about his magical swords...<</wymerus>> Even though the book is a lie, a plan hatches in your mind. If your father raided the castle holding the sword, would it be a great coincidence if the ?reliquary currently holds the blade? With this idea given form you nod to ?Wymerus. <<player>>Thank you, ?Wymerus. I'll keep an eye out for the sword!<</player>> He salutes you as you take your leave. <<wymerus>>Any time, ?title. Let me know if you somehow run into the thing, I'll be more than happy to show you how to use it.<</wymerus>> <<completequest wymerus-book>> <<decision 'Leave' 'Hallway'>> <<addcounter 'wymerus' 0.5>> <<addcounter 'caspar' 0.5>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <</decision>>

You walk up to ?Wymerus and without saying a word you brandish your new magical sword: ?sword. ?Wymerus has a look of utter disbelief on his face. <<wymerus>>That sword... Is that... ?sword? How did you find it?<</wymerus>> <<player>>The ?reliquary. I got it as a reward from ?Leopold.<</player>> Suddenly ?Wymerus starts laughing. <<wymerus>>Hahaha! You're saying this legendary sword has been here the whole time?<</wymerus>> You nod at him, surprised by his joyousness. <<wymerus>>That's hilarious. I knew your father was rather protective of his swords but I can't believe he never told me he has this...<</wymerus>> <<wymerus>>Well, that's a wonderful find, ?title. You will make a good owner to this beautiful sword. Would you like me to teach you how to use it?<</wymerus>> <<player>>Yes please, that would be wonderful!<</player>> With your permission, ?Wymerus takes the mythical sword and shows you how to hold a proper stance. You spend the next few hours going over forms on how to use the thing. Strangely enough, it's rather similar than using a normal sword, the only change is that ?Wymerus tells you to focus your energy on the sword more and help it guide you through the wind more effectively.?nl After only a few hours you already feel quite confident with it. It feels like you have spent years mastering the blade, this sword definitely has magical power in it. You show your apparent mastery by slicing up one of the training dummies right in front of ?Wymerus. <<wymerus>>Very good, ?title. Your form is good, your focus is keen and you move with the sword instead of against it. That's basically all there is to it, I wish you the best of luck with this artifact.<</wymerus>> <<player>>Thank you for teaching me, ?wymerus. I'm very happy to have you guiding me.<</player>> <<decision 'Leave' 'Hallway'>> <<completequest wymerus-sword>> <<addcounter 'wymerus' 0.5>> <<addcounter 'caspar' 0.5>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <</decision>>

<p id="location-description"> You stand in the midst of the meadow, surrounded by a kaleidoscope of wildflowers swaying in the breeze. A dirt road leads towards the edge of the forest. </p>

<p id="location-description"> The forest is a lush expanse of towering trees, their verdant canopies creating a cathedral-like atmosphere of serenity. Sunlight filters through the leaves, dappling the mossy ground with a gentle, enchanting glow. </p>

<p id="location-description"> Nestled within the shadows of towering trees, the bandit camp in the forest is a makeshift haven of secrecy and danger. Tattered tents and flickering campfires blend with the dense foliage, creating an ominous ambiance. </p>

<p id="location-description"> The square is the bustling heart of the town. It is here that they gather to celebrate festivals and ceremonies. It's close to both the local tavern and smithy. There is a beautiful fountain in the middle of the square. </p>

<p id="location-description"> The smithy is a small building, made of wood and brick, with a large chimney and a stone floor. It contains a furnace and a large anvil. It is used to make iron tools, weapons, and armor. It is owned and operated by ?Berg the blacksmith. </p>

<p id="location-description"> The local tavern, ?tavern, is located in the heart of town. Every evening the townsfolk flock to carouse and drink ale.

<p id="location-description"> The alley is a dingy place filled with garbage and rats.

<p id="location-description"> The interior of the church is bathed in the soft, colorful light filtering through the stained glass windows, casting patterns on the stone floor. The air carries the scent of incense and polished wood, a comforting aroma that always brought a sense of peace. </p>

You wander down the alley, taking in the sights and smells of refuse. It's not particularly pleasant, and you suspect this is not a place you should be spending much time. Just as you're turning to leave, however, you hear a small, muffled cry.?nl It takes some minutes, but eventually you move a rotten wooden crate aside to find a striped orange cat crouched in a pile of tattered rags. The cat looks quite skinny, except for a large, round belly. You're fairly certain this cat must be pregnant.?nl The cat arches her back and hisses at you, her eyes wide. She seems scared of people, but she also seems hungry... Perhaps you could bring her some food??nl <<decision 'Leave the cat alone'>> This alley cat's wellbeing really isn't your problem, and in any case, she doesn't seem to want your help. You carefully place the wooden crate back and realize you should probably get out of this alley. <<decision 'Leave the alley' 'Town square'>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Resolve to bring the cat some food'>> <<addtag ask-about-cat-food>> You can't just leave this hungry, pregnant cat to fend for herself. You know the castle has several cats in residence to catch mice. Perhaps ?Rosa would know where to get some appropriate food??nl You speak to the cat in soothing tones and promise to bring her something to eat. She hisses at you, her fur standing on end, but you know she's just scared. <<decision 'Put the crate back and leave the alley' 'Town square'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

You wander through the alley, wrinkling your nose at the faint whiff of urine. You notice little except for an old man who is currently slumped against the wall of the tavern, snoring loudly. As you approach, the smell of urine and stale beer grows stronger; he seems to have soiled himself in his drunken stupor.?nl There doesn't seem to be much of interest here. <<decision 'Leave the alley' 'Town square'>><</decision>>

As you start to enter the alley, you realize that there are two men already there, pushed up against the side of a building. You pull back to not be seen and listen for a moment. You're quite certain that you hear the sound of moaning, and something like a rhythmic slapping.?nl They seem far too busy to have noticed you. You could just sneak away and leave them to their business... On the other hand, you could just as easily creep forward and hide behind a pile of crates to watch... <<decision 'Creep closer to watch' 'Alley Couple Anal' depravity small >><</decision>> <<decision 'Back out of the alley' 'Town square' virtue small>><</decision>>

<<addsin 'peeping'>> You crouch and make your way silently into the alley. From a hiding place behind old crates you can see the two men better. They are wearing simple peasant clothes, but their faces are handsome and their bodies are strong from regular physical labor. One is pressed up against the wall of the building, his back arched and his blonde hair falling into his eyes. The other, a man with pale skin and dark curly hair, is moving rhymically against him.?nl You crouch there watching until your eyes adjust to the dim light and you can make out more detail. You can see the blonde man stroking his own thick member while pushing himself repeatedly backwards, moaning each time the dark-haired man thrusts deep inside him. <<say 'Dark-Haired Man'>>Fuck, your ass is good...<</say>> The blonde man throws his head back and moans even louder. The dark-haired man stuffs a hand over his mouth and lets out a low chuckle. <<say 'Dark-Haired Man'>>Not so loud, we don't want anyone to hear...<</say>> The blonde man moans through the fingers over his mouth, still pushing himself backward onto the other man's cock. The dark-haired man increases the speed of his thrusts, pounding hard into the blonde man with a look of hunger in his eyes.?nl The blonde man gives up trying to coordinate his movements and allows himself to be fucked hard against the building, still moaning through the other man's fingers. Finally, he cries out as he orgasms, his cum splattering across the side of the building. <<say 'Dark-Haired Man'>>Oh, fuck...<</say>> The dark-haired man seems to reach his orgasm as well. He pulls out of the other man for a brief moment, shooting cum onto his hole before thrusting deep inside to finish his orgasm. The blonde man leans exhaustedly against the wall, moaning softly as he is filled up.?nl As the men come down from their excitement, you realize you should probably sneak back out of the alley before they notice you... <<decision 'Quietly leave the alley' 'Town square'>><</decision>>

<<removetag ask-about-cat-food>> ?Rosa appears to be rolling out some kind of pastry dough when you enter the kitchen, and the delicious scent of warm spices fills the air. She looks up as you enter. <<rosa>>Hello, m'lord! Can I help you with something?<</rosa>> <<player>>I hope you can. You see, on one of my...well, excursions, I came across a very hungry looking cat who also appeared to be pregnant. I don't suppose you know where I could find some food I could bring her?<</player>> ?Rosa looks touched that you have come to her with such a question. <<rosa>>How kind of you, m'lord! Well, normally the mousing cats catch their own food throughout the castle. But I think I have something you could use...<</rosa>> She disappears into the larder and re-emerges a few moments later with a small cloth bundle, which she hands to you. <<rosa>>I had a bit of meat left on a chicken carcass from today's dinner. This should be enough to feed a very hungry cat.<</rosa>> <<player>>Thank you so much, ?Rosa. I'll be sure she gets this.<</player>> <<decision 'Bring the cat the food' 'Alley Cat Food 1'>><</decision>>

<<addcounter 'fed-cat' 1>> <<setlocation 'Alley'>> <<include 'Outfit Disguise'>> <<addtag feeding-cat>> You make your way out of the castle in disguise and head to the town. You duck into the alley and quickly find the cat, this time curled up asleep in her bed of rags. You open the cloth of food and place it next to her gently.?nl She wakes slowly, sniffing the air. When she sees you, she starts to recoil, but then stops when she notices the food. She immediately wolfs the food down, keeping a careful watch on you the whole time.?nl She still looks scared, but she's no longer hissing at you. Most importantly, she's got food in her belly. You resolve to bring some scraps from your next meal the next time you come to town. <<decision 'Sneak back into the castle and remove your disguise' 'Bedroom'>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <<include 'Outfit Standard'>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Stay in town for a while longer' 'Town square'>> <<increasetime 1 true>> <</decision>>

You find the cat in her usual spot. She is sleeping when you uncover her, but starts to wake as you set down a piece of meat you stashed away from your last dinner. She eats the meat, less hungrily than last time, and looks at you warily.?nl You slowly reach out a hand and let her sniff it. She doesn't shrink away this time, so you brush a hand very gently across her fur. She still seems wary, but allows you to give her some light pats before moving away again. You figure she has had enough; you can always come back another time to give her more food. <<decision 'Leave the alley' 'Town square'>><</decision>>

You find the cat awake. She's looking even more pregnant than before, and perhaps a little uncomfortable with her big belly. She accepts the scraps you saved for her from your last dinner gratefully, and seems to almost relax as you run your hand gently across her fur. You realize happily that she seems to be starting to trust you.?nl After you spend some time petting the cat, you promise her you'll be back again soon with more food. <<decision 'Leave the alley' 'Town square'>><</decision>>

Before you even get to the cat's hiding spot, you notice something is different than last time. In the quiet of the alley, you can just make out a chorus of tiny mewling voices. You pull aside the rotten crate eagerly, and see a pile of tiny kittens, their eyes not yet open. The mother cat is curled around them as they nurse, and she looks at you with trust as you approach.?nl You gently place down another offering of meat scraps and watch as the mother cat eats gratefully. When she has finished, she even allows you to pet her kittens. They are warm and soft, and so small that they could fit in the palm of your hand.?nl You realize that this cat will probably need even more help now that her kittens are born. Perhaps you could just keep bringing her food a while longer, until she can get it herself... On the other hand, perhaps you could bring the cat and her kittens to the castle... ?Rosa would probably know what to do with a litter of kittens...?nl <<decision 'Leave the cat here'>> You think better of trying to move a mother cat and all her kittens. You can keep bringing food any time you're in town, after all, and the castle probably doesn't need any more cats.

You find the cat and her kittens in their usual place. The mother cat looks at you expectantly as you hand her a pile of choice pieces from your last dinner. She eats them and happily lets you pet her and her kittens, who seem to have gotten bigger since last time. After a while you stand up and say goodbye to them. <<decision 'Leave the alley' 'Town square'>><</decision>>

You salvage a good-condition wooden crate from the alley and line it with some scraps of fabric. The mother cat watches you with concern as you start to place the kittens in the box, but then calms when you make room for her to jump in too. She seems willing to let you take her and her kittens with you. <<decision 'Bring the crate to Rosa' 'Bring Cats Rosa'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Kitchen'>> You bring the crate of kittens into the kitchen, just as ?Rosa is pulling a loaf of bread out of the stone oven.

What do you have in the box?<</rosa>> <<else>> <<rosa>>Hello there, sir! What do you have in the box?<</rosa>> <</if>> <<player>>Come, look!<</player>> ?Rosa approaches and peeks inside the box. She gasps with delight. <<rosa>>The kittens! And the mother cat! They all look so healthy, thanks to you!<</rosa>> A huge smile is on ?Rosa's face as she reaches in and gently pets one of the kittens. <<player>>I realized that the mother cat was going to need some extra help now that her kittens are born. Do you know how we could take care of them for a while?<</player>> ?Rosa looks suddenly excited. <<rosa>>I would be happy to take care of them! I've raised many a litter myself already. I have a warm spot under the counter they can stay for now, and then when they're a bit older, they can become castle mousers!<</rosa>> You're a bit relieved ?Rosa knows what to do, as you've never had to take care of such helpless creatures before.

You crouch down and find the mother cat curled around her litter. She happily allows you to pet her and her kittens, and purrs loudly as you scratch gently behind her ears.

<<decision 'Sneak up to the bandit camp' 'Bandit Encounter'>><</decision>>

<<addcounter bandit 2>> You know this is definitely the dangerous part of the woods. That bandit you met when harvesting mushrooms together with ?Morgana told you his camp was in this direction. You're not sure why you've now decided to sneak in that direction but something has you curious...?nl Even though you can't see anyone around you for a while you still find yourself crouching through the bushes. It's not the most comfortable path<<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>>, especially in this dress<</if>>. After sneaking for quite a while you finally notice the signs of the bandit camp in the distance. You can see the campfire and you can hear the rowdy laughter of drunk highwaymen over there. You make your way as close as you feel comfortable. Curiosity has made you do many things in life, but none of them quite as crazy as this. You get close enough to actually make out the bandits themselves, there's quite a number of them. They seem to be having a gathering complete with drunken feast. It's at this moment that you decide it's probably best to head back before you get caught.?nl <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>> As soon as you turn around you see a man standing right behind you. It's the same bandit that caught you gathering mushrooms near the waterfall... <<bandit>>Look at that, you actually came to the camp.<</bandit>> You can't believe you got caught so easily, even worse, by the same bandit who caught you before. You slowly back away but realise you can't really go backwards that far otherwise you'll be seen by the other bandits in camp. Nevertheless, the man standing in front of you is taking a step in your direction. <<bandit>>So what is it you came here to find? Perhaps you were hoping to get caught in the woods again...<</bandit>> You look at him quite befuddled as you stammer a response. <<player>>No- uh, I was just curious about the camp here. N- nothing more...<</player>> The bandit looks you up and down with leering eyes. <<bandit>>Is that why you came crossdressing again? Doesn't seem practical for sneaking through the woods...<</bandit>> He's got a point there. Why is it that you came out here now, looking for trouble? You're not sure how to respond to his question and the bandit takes the moment to get even closer to you. You're suddenly thinking about the large gathering of bandits behind you. What if this guy decides to take you back to his camp? You look behind you towards the bandit camp and then look back to the guy standing in front of you with a scared look. <<bandit>>Are you worried I'm going to alert the rest of the camp? Well don't be scared, I would much rather not get anyone else involved here.<</bandit>> Hearing this gives you some slight relief which is immediately replaced with worries about his intentions. <<bandit>>Maybe the proposal I made last time had you intrigued. Maybe that's why you came back... Why don't you help me out with this issue I'm having now...<</bandit>> You see the bandit not so subtly touch his crotch area which is apparently already sporting quite the bulge. You're strangely fixated on it as he slowly puts a hand on your shoulder and softly pushes downward, indicating he wants you to go down on your knees.?nl Is he seriously asking you to... Last time you met the bandit, he seemed to sort of handle your rejection pretty well. You could probably just back off from this situation if you want to. Strangely enough, something in you is actually considering his request as well... All alone in the woods... Who would know about this... <<decision 'Back off' 'Bandit Encounter Deny' virtue large>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Get down on your knees...' 'Bandit Blowjob' depravity large>> <</decision>> <<else>> You slowly start making your way back to the safer parts of the woods. Bandits are not for you to deal with right now, it's a good thing you didn't get caught. <<decision 'Return to the woods' 'Forest'>><</decision>> <</if>>

You don't budge to his attempts to get you to your knees and take a step back. <<player>>How many times do I have to tell you no?! I'm not interested!<</player>> The bandit, quickly startled, looks at you with a flabbergasted expression. <<bandit>>Well now, you came all the way over here in your dress simply to reject me again? I even told you where to find me and you came looking for me!<</bandit>> <<player>>Uhm, yeah. Just because I was curious about your camp here doesn't mean I want to do <em>that</em> with you.<</player>> He looks at you, slightly offended and gives a retort back. <<bandit>>I mean, that's all good. I'm not going to force you or anything...<</bandit>> He seems to be thinking some things over. <<bandit>>Sorry, I suppose I misread the situation...<</bandit>> <<player>>It's fine, I'm just not interested. I'm going to go now.<</player>> <<bandit>>Alright, see you around I guess.<</bandit>> The bandit walks past you in the direction of the camp, looking a bit disappointed. You decide to make your way back to the safer parts of the woods. <<decision 'Return' 'Forest'>><</decision>>

<<disablemusic>> <<addsin 'blowjob'>> You can't believe you're actually doing this... It's almost like your body is on auto control. Something about this bandit has you worked up and you're secretly quite curious of what's about to happen... <<bandit>>There's a good girl... Now lower my trousers for me.<</bandit>> Seriously? He's going to give you commands and wants you to do everything? You think about backing out but the burning feeling inside you wants you to keep going. Your hands move forward, searching for a way to lower his pants. You stumble on a bulge right in front of your face... Is that his...??nl You slowly manage to lower his pants and the answer to your questions suddenly hits you in the face. Literally.?nl His cock is big. <<if settings.sph>>Much bigger than your ?dick.<</if>> You stare at it in disbelief. <<bandit>>Yeah you like that, don't you? Come on, why don't you give it a kiss?<</bandit>> You stare up at him slightly annoyed. You actually don't follow his command right away but instead you do find yourself taking hold of his shaft, exploring his massive cock. Somehow you are already stroking this random bandit you met in the woods right now... <<bandit>>Go on... Kiss it...<</bandit>> His tone turns slightly more demanding but it's strange to note that the actual thing convincing you are your own thoughts, wanting to continue with this. Underneath your dress, your ?dick is already rock hard. You're not sure why the situation is turning you on so much and you push the thought away as you give the penis head a wet kiss, taking in the smell and taste of his dick. It tastes... Surprisingly nice... <<bandit>>Yes... Good girl... Now take it into your mouth...<</bandit>> Perhaps it's his scent that makes you so horny or perhaps you just like being submissive to this man but you somehow instantly obey his command this time. You take the dick in your mouth, at first only the cock head as you swirl your tongue around it. It doesn't take long before you try to take it more and more. <<img 'morgana/bandit_blowjob.gif' 'ridge-border' '36em'>> <<bandit>>Ahhh... That's nice... Keep going...<</bandit>> Somehow hearing his moaning and pleased remarks makes you feel sort of... Proud... Like you're actually happy that you're providing a good blowjob to this man you never met before.?nl You eagerly take in more and more of his cock and bob your head back and forth faster and faster. His moaning continues as you do everything you can to make him feel good. <<bandit>>I knew you were a cock-slut the moment I saw you... Actually, you don't mind if I'm a little rough, right?<</bandit>> Did he just call you a cock-slut? Why does that make you feel more turned on...? Also, what does he mean with being more rough? You can hardly answer the question right now with his cock in your mouth and it seems like he won't actually be waiting for a response.?nl He suddenly grabs your head with both hands and starts pulling and pushing you over his cock. It looks like he wants total control of the situation as he starts pushing his cock deeper and deeper.?nl You feel his cock slowly starting to enter your throat as you try not to let your gag reflex kick in. <<bandit>>Just relax your jaw and throat and let me take care of it. You'll make for a good face-fuck, slut.<</bandit>> Strangely enough his advice to relax somehow works as you focus hard to accommodate more and more of his cock down your throat. Instead of moving your head up and down his shaft, he is now simply holding your head in place as he starts pumping his cock back and forth using his hips. He's actually face-fucking you.?nl The whole situation has you burning with passion, it's not really a conscious decision when you find your hand tuck itself under your dress to grab your ?dick so you can start masturbating while he's skull-fucking you.?nl Your ?dick is rock hard as you start stroking yourself while the bandit is pumping his cock in and out of your mouth. This increasingly humiliating situation has you completely turned on. <<bandit>>Ah fuck! Are you ready for my cum, you slut? I'm going to coat the inside of your throat with it.<</bandit>> You stroke your ?dick faster and faster as you feel him speeding up as well. He suddenly grunts loudly as he pushes his cock in your mouth all the way to the base. You feel a thick liquid slide down your throat, you don't even have a choice in whether you swallow this or not as he's simply dumping it in your throat. At least that saves you from having the bad taste in your mouth, at least, that's what you think until he suddenly pulls his cock out your mouth and shoots a last rope right over your tongue.?nl You don't even hesitate as you quickly swallow his cum and for some reason even look up at him to present your empty mouth to him... <<bandit>>Fuck that was great... I didn't realise you are a cumslut as well... I can cum on your face next time if you want, make you walk around with my seed presented everywhere.<</bandit>> You should be done... He already came... He took his cock out of your mouth and is finished... But for some reason you are still down on your knees. You don't know whether it's the hotness of the situation or the fact that he continues to degrade you but you can only focus on one thing right now. You're really close to climaxing so you continue stroking, looking up at him. It probably looks kind of strange, a guy on his knees in a dress, rigorously masturbating himself...?nl <<bandit>>Oh... I see... The sissy isn't done yet... Very well, I'll help you a bit. I need to clean this cock anyways.<</bandit>> The bandit suddenly grabs your head and simply shoves his slightly softening cock and forces it all the way down to the base. Your nose is stuffed in his pubes as you take a big inhale, seeping in his scent. You start masturbating faster and faster as he's simply holding you in place with his cock down your mouth. Does this bandit even know he just shot his cum down the prince's mouth? That he used your royal mouth as his personal fucktoy? The thoughts of him finding out have you even more turned on.?nl It doesn't take long for you to feel your orgasm approach. You let out a very muffled moan as your mouth is currently occupied with cock as your own ?dick spurts out the biggest orgasm you've had probably ever, completely soiling the inside of your dress. <<bandit>>Ah there we go, glad to see you had a good time too.<</bandit>> The bandit slowly starts to pull his cock out of your mouth and takes a step back, fixing his trousers. You're still down on your knees, panting as you take in what just happened. <<bandit>>You did very well, little slut.<</bandit>> /* <<bandit>>You should come visit us next time you're here though, I have some friends at my camp who would love to meet you and learn of your particular skills.<</bandit>> */ You start to rise from your knees and fix your dress. He starts to walk away from you, looking satisfied. <<bandit>>Now I must really be going. Good luck in the woods out here, try not to suck too many cocks on your way out.<</bandit>> You can't believe you actually just did that... And most of all enjoy it too... <<decision 'Make your way back' 'Forest'>><</decision>>

They were used to facing ordinary soldiers and peasants, not someone like him. <<page>> When the battle began, Edmund took out his sword and prepared for the fight. But the bandits were crafty, and they attacked from all sides.?nl He was quickly surrounded, and it looked like the end for him. <<page>> Just when it seemed like he was done for, Edmund did something unexpected. He threw his sword down and began to dance. It was a strange sight to behold, but the bandits were so shocked that they didn't know how to react.?nl Edmund danced and twirled, moving faster and faster, until he was a blur of motion.

As you reach the end of a row of shelves, you spot a book that catches your eye. It's an elegant volume, bound in fine leather, with aged letters embossed on the cover.

Intrigued, you decide to give this book a try.?nl <<book 'duel' 'duel' 'The Duel of Words and Blades'>> <<page>> Once upon a time, in a grand court filled with nobles and scholars, there were two men known for their sharp wit and eloquence. <em>Lord Lysander</em>, a master wordsmith whose tongue was as quick as a rapier, and <em>Sir Reginald</em>, a knight renowned for his strength and prowess.?nl One day, a debate was arranged between the two, to be held before the court and the king himself. <<page>> <em>Lord Lysander:</em> Oh Sir Reginald, thy words are as clumsy as thy feet. Dost thou stumble through life as thou dost through this debate??nl <em>Sir Reginald:</em> Master Lysander, thy words may dance like the wind, but it is substance, not air, that doth make a man. What use is a tongue that can prattle but cannot act??nl The court watched with bated breath as the two men exchanged barbs, each one more cutting than the last. <<page>> <em>Lord Lysander:</em> To act without thought is but folly, Sir Knight. Thy sword may be swift, but it is the mind that guides the hand. Tell me, dost thou ever think, or merely swing blindly??nl <em>Sir Reginald:</em> And to think without act is but cowardice, Lord Lysander. Thy tongue is sharp, but can it defend thee when steel is drawn? Perhaps we should test which is mightier: the pen or the sword.?nl The court gasped as Sir Reginald's challenge hung in the air. Unexpectedly, he drew his sword, the glint of steel catching the candlelight. <<page>> Taken aback, Lord Lysander nonetheless accepted the challenge, drawing a slender rapier from his side, seemingly emitting a soft white glow. The court watched in stunned silence as the duel began, their verbal sparring replaced by the clash of steel.?nl <em>Sir Reginald:</em> Prepare thyself, wordsmith. Thy wit will not save thee now.?nl <<page>> Sir Reginald lunged, his sword aiming for Lysander's heart. But Lysander, with surprising agility, parried the blow with a technique so precise and unexpected that it seemed almost magical.?nl <em>Lord Lysander:</em> Thou underestimateth me, Sir Knight. Words are not my only weapon.?nl His rapier moved with a fluid grace, his strikes aimed with such precision that Reginald struggled to keep up. The technique was a blend of quick feints and swift counters, a dance of steel that mesmerized the onlookers. <<page>> <em>Sir Reginald:</em> What sorcery is this? Thy blade moves as if it were an extension of thy very will.?nl <em>Lord Lysander:</em> 'Tis a technique learned through years of study, Sir Knight. To wield a blade as one would wield words, with precision and intent. Observe closely, for it may be thy undoing.?nl Lysander's final strike disarmed Reginald, his rapier sending the knight's sword clattering to the floor. A sly smile sprouts on the Lord's face while Sir Reginald slumps down, defeated. The court erupted in applause, astonished by the display. Who knew such a witty man of words could use his blade so elegantly. <<finished>> <<increasetime 1>> You close the book, feeling a strange sense of enlightenment.

While perusing the large shelves filled with books, you set your eyes on a very thick tome.

He lays out your finely made royal vestments, specifically meant for your Sunday visitations, on the bed.?nl As you got out of bed, ?Orson helps you dress, ensuring each piece of clothing is perfectly adjusted.

The market is a bustling hub, filled with vendors hawking fresh produce, textiles, and artisan crafts. Laughter and chatter fill the air, blending with the smells of baked goods and smoked meats.<br> As you make your way through the crowded streets, you pass by the local tavern, its doors open wide, inviting in early patrons with the promise of hearty meals and ale. Further on, you walk by ?Berg, the town's blacksmith, working at her forge.<br> There's quite a large number of people in the town square right now.

His presence commands attention, and as he begins his sermon, the congregation falls into a hushed attentiveness. <<dominic>>Welcome, everyone.

Despite his sometimes unnerving demeanor, there is an undeniable wisdom in his words that somewhat resonate with you.?nl As the sermon concludes and the final hymn was sung, the congregation begins to disperse, leaving in a quiet reflection of the morning's teachings.

The confession booth is a small, enclosed space that feels even more confining today. As you enter, the familiar sense of apprehension settles over you. Father Dominic's voice, now softened, greets you from the other side of the screen. <<dominic>>Bless you, ?titleD. What burdens do you wish to lay down today?<</dominic>> You take a deep breath, searching for the right words. Confession was always a moment of vulnerability, a time to confront your own flaws and seek guidance. <<player>>Father, I find myself struggling with doubt and the weight of my responsibilities. How can I be sure I'm making the right choices for my people?<</player>> The silence that followed feels heavy, but when Father Dominic speaks, his voice carried a comforting certainty. <<dominic>>Doubt is a sign of a thoughtful heart, my prince. It is through questioning that we find our path. Trust in your faith, in your council, and in yourself. The right choices are those made with a true heart and a mind open to wisdom.<</dominic>> His words offer a measure of solace, a reminder that even in moments of uncertainty, there is guidance to be found in faith and the support of those around you.

You make your way through the town, it's bustling with people in the marketplace but with some shouting from your bodyguard, people make way for you to pass. You can see the open tavern ready to invite people in after the church sermon is now finished. Even though you might want to get a drink, you realise the councillors would be deeply disappointed if you let yourself get in harm's way like that. <<decision 'Head back to the castle' 'Gatehouse'>><<increasetime 1 true>><<equip 'prince_outfit_1'>><</decision>> <</if>>

You make your way into the church, the bustle of the town fading into silence as you pass through the ornate doors. It seems you have entered at a rare moment when the church is totally vacant. The pews stand empty, and even ?Dominic is nowhere to be seen. You imagine he must be in his office, working on his next sermon.?nl You walk between the pews, the sound of your footsteps echoing lightly through the room. As you do so, your eyes fall on the wooden collection box at the end of the aisle. The box is normally locked, but for some reason the iron padlock is currently missing.?nl Considering how much time you're spending in disguise now, you could really use a few more coins in your pocket. It would be so easy to take a small handful. After all, how many hundreds of coins have you yourself dropped into that very box? You would simply be borrowing from your past self... <<decision 'Open the collection box' 'Church Money Box Open' depravity medium>><</decision>> <<decision 'Resist the temptation' 'Church Money Box Ignore' virtue medium>><</decision>>

Looking around one more time to ensure no one is watching, you approach the box and flip open the lid. To your dismay, the box is totally empty. You realize now that the lock must have been removed to unload the box of its contents. With disappointment, you close the lid. Perhaps this is a sign that you should not be stealing from the church... <<decision 'Leave the church' 'Town square'>><</decision>>

You ignore the temptation of the collection box and turn away to look at one of the beautiful stained glass windows lining the church walls. Just as you do so, you hear footsteps enter the room. You look over your shoulder to see ?Dominic reattaching the padlock to the collection box and locking it with a large key.?nl You feel relieved that you didn't approach the box. There would have been some very awkward questions if ?Dominic had caught you, let alone if he recognized who you were...?nl You figure you should probably leave now, before ?Dominic tries to come talk to you. <<decision 'Leave the church' 'Town square'>><</decision>>

You enter the church, feeling a sense of calm wash over you as you step into the quiet. There are several townspeople in the pews, hands clasped and heads lowered in prayer. You catch a glimpse of ?Dominic as he ducks into a confessional booth.?nl You wander around the edges of the church, admiring the way the light filters through the stained glass windows, casting colorful patterns on the floor. You stop by one window and take a closer look. You aren't sure exactly which stories are depicted in the glass, but you appreciate the bright blue in the robes of one figure, and the deep red of a bowl of apples.?nl You spend some time wandering around the church, enjoying the stained glass and the quiet, before you feel ready to leave. <<decision 'Leave the church' 'Town square'>><</decision>>

You stroll into the church. It seems to be a quiet day, with just one person praying silently in a pew. ?Dominic, who is arranging some papers by the pulpit, looks up as you enter. You accidentally make eye contact with him, and before you can do anything, he leaves the pulpit and approaches you. <<dominic>>Hello, my child. Do you seek guidance or confession this day?<</dominic>> Luckily he doesn't seem to have recognized you yet, though you're painfully aware that of anyone, he may be the most accustomed to recognizing your voice without seeing your appearance. <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>You alter your voice to sound as feminine as possible.<<else>>You alter your voice to sound lower than usual.<</if>> <<player>>Ah, no, Father, I was simply...admiring this statue.<</player>> You point to a nearby statue of a man in long robes holding a pair of shoes in one hand and a sword in the other. ?Dominic looks at the statue and back to you, a slight look of confusion breaking through his normally composed expression. <<dominic>>Saint Edmund? A venerable man, indeed. He was known as Sir Edmund in his day, and serves as a model to us all for eradicating sin through...unconventional means.<</dominic>> <<if hasRead('dancing-knight')>> You realize you've heard the name Sir Edmund before, in that ridiculous book about the dancing knight. This couldn't be the same Sir Edmund, could it? <<else>> You're not sure you've ever heard of a "Saint Edmund" before. He can't have been a very important saint. <</if>> You want to escape this conversation, but curiosity gets the better of you. <<player>>Why is he holding a pair of shoes, then?<</player>> ?Dominic looks vaguely ruffled at this question. <<dominic>>Well, that is illustrative of part of the parable. He used the medium of...dance...as a way to distract his opponents. Thus, those are his...dancing shoes.<</dominic>> You have to admit ?Dominic's discomfort at explaining this story is amusing, but you don't want to push your luck by talking to him for too long. <<player>>I must be going, but thank you, Father, for this wisdom.<</player>> ?Dominic gives you a small nod. <<dominic>>Go in peace, my child.<</dominic>> <<decision 'Leave the church' 'Town square'>><</decision>>

You once again get woken up by ?Orson with the same message as last week. <<orson>>I'm sorry to wake you, ?title. The council meeting will be starting soon and they are expecting you.<</orson>> <<player>>Ugh... Fine. Would you please prepare a bath for me, ?Orson?<</player>> You get up groggily, why must the council always meet this early? The sun is barely up. <<decision 'Have your morning bath before going to the council' 'Orson Bathroom'>><</decision>>

As you enter the grand hall you can see the councillors are already present. ?Andreas, ?Leopold, ?Morgana, ?Wymerus, ?Sybille, and ?Dominic are all seating around the large table. It seems like they were waiting for you to arrive before starting the meeting. <<andreas>>Welcome, ?title. I am glad you could join us. Please, have a seat and we can start the meeting.<</andreas>> Currently, there are two chairs vacant for you to pick from. One is an ordinary councillors chair and the other is the throne at the head of the table where your father would normally sit to preside over the council. You're not sure whether ?Andreas is actively testing you, having you make this decision in front of everyone but he is currently waiting for you to take your seat before starting the meeting. Which means all the councillors currently have their attention on you. <<decision 'Sit down in a normal councillors chair' submissiveness large>> It feels quite rash to suddenly take the place where your father would normally sit, you don't feel quite comfortable with that. Besides, you are not a king yet so it's probably against protocol. You see ?Andreas look at you for a moment before starting the meeting. <<andreas>>Very well, let us start. I hereby open the meeting of the ?king's council.<</andreas>> <<decision 'Listen to Andreas' 'Council Quests'>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Take your seat at your father\'s throne' dominance huge>> You take your time to walk up to the throne, it is sitting slightly higher than the other council chairs and it's fittingly much more extravagant. You feel all the councillors look at you as you sit down on the throne. ?Andreas looks at you with a slightly surprised look, it almost looks like he's impressed. <<andreas>>Very well, let us start. I hereby open the meeting of the ?king's council.<</andreas>> <<decision 'Listen to Andreas' 'Council Quests'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

<<if !hasCompletedQuest('assassination-attempt')>> <<name andreas 'Chancellor'>> stands up to address the rest of the council. <<andreas>>Let us get right to it. The assassination attempt on the <<name player 'prince' none>>'s life has been a devastating blow to the security of our royal court.<</andreas>> He speaks with clarity and decisiveness. Nobody can argue ?Andreas is not taking the case seriously. <<andreas>><<name sybille 'Lady'>>, where are we with the assassin? Do we have any idea who sent him?<</andreas>> <<sybille>>Unfortunately not much progress has been made, <<name andreas 'Chancellor' 'none'>>. The man is difficult to crack. Unfortunately, I cannot estimate the motive behind his stunt with any certainly. Give me more time and I can assure you the assassin will tell me what we want to know, my dungeons always get people to talk.<</sybille>> ?Wymerus stands up from his seat. <<wymerus>>It must have been one of our neighboring rulers! They have been looking to exploit us even since the ?King left!<</wymerus>> ?Andreas makes a calming motion at the <<name wymerus 'Lord Marshal' none>> <<andreas>>Careful, Lord. We cannot make assumptions without evidence. Instead, please tell about the security of the castle, what measurements have you taken?<</andreas>> <<wymerus>>Of course, <<name andreas 'Chancellor'>>. I have doubled the castle guard ever since that last Sunday. I have sent more and more patrols into town. After several sweeps of interrogations, we have found no collaborators. It looks like the assassin acted alone.<</wymerus>> The council is looking to ?Andreas again. It feels strange having all these experienced people talk about a situation that happened to you without really including you much in the conversation. <<andreas>>Hmm... I am glad the castle seems secure but we need to know why this happened. I expect answers as soon as you have them, <<name sybille 'Spymaster' none>>.<</andreas>> ?Sybille nods to ?Andreas before he continues the meeting. <<decision 'Listen to Andreas' 'Council Meeting'>> <<completequest assassination-attempt>> <</decision>> <<else>> <<include 'Council Meeting'>> <</if>>

?Andreas now turns to you as he addresses you. <<andreas>>?Title, as you know we have been charged with overseeing your education. We would like to inquire about your progress.<</andreas>> You want to give an answer but it looks like ?Andreas wasn't really looking to hear it from you as he turns to ?Leopold suddenly. You see the <<name leopold 'Tradesmaster' none>> stand up and clear his throat. <<if getStatLevel('stewardship') >= $player.levelexpectation>> <<leopold>>The prince's education in stewardship is going very well, he is picking up on vital subjects like the different currencies and bookkeeping rather well.

He is already trying more advanced fighting forms and he is a very good match to my personal squire, ?Caspar.<</wymerus>> <<else>> <<wymerus>>?Title, I know sword fighting can be difficult but it is always expected of a good king to have good experience with it. I must ask you to come spar more often, you could use more training with your forms.<</wymerus>> <</if>> ?Andreas nods to the other two councillors as he takes over again. <<if getStatLevel('statesmanship') >= $player.levelexpectation>> <<andreas>>And finally, I must say that I am impressed with the prince's keen sense of governing. He has taken more than enough time with me learning the basics of statesmanship. I feel you are ready for a more difficult challenge now. <</andreas>> <<else>> <<andreas>>And finally, I must report that the prince could use more time learning about matter of state. ?Title, I know it might be more fun to swing a sword around, but learning how to govern this kingdom is of utmost important.<</andreas>> <</if>> With all accounts over with, ?Andreas directly addresses you once again. <<if getStatLevel('stewardship') >= $player.levelexpectation and getStatLevel('swordsmanship') >= $player.levelexpectation and getStatLevel('statesmanship') >= $player.levelexpectation>> <<andreas>>I think it is clear to see that you have been surpassing our expectations, ?title. Keep up the good work and you will be ready to become a great monarch. If your father was here, he too would be proud of your progress.<</andreas>> The councillors give a small applause as they all look at you and smile. You feel good being this appreciated, it feels nice that they recognise your efforts. <<player>>Thank you, my lords. I very much value your mentorship.<</player>> You now look to ?Leopold, anxiously waiting to hear about your reward. <<leopold>>Ah, yes! As promised, ?title, I will let you into the ?reliquary and you will be able to pick out and artifact that you can use. Please come by the Treasury whenever you have time.<</leopold>> You are smiling at the prospect of getting an artifact as you enthusiastically nod at him. <<startquest retrieve-artifact>> <<set $player.levelexpectation += 1>> <<else>> <<andreas>>?Title, I am afraid we have higher expectations of you than what you have currently shown us. It is important that you grasp these subjects before you can learn what it mean to be a good ruler. I hope you will make more time for your education in the future.<</andreas>> The councillors give you a stern look as you sit there in your chair. <<leopold>>I am sorry, ?title, but this means I can't let you into the ?reliquary to pick out an artifact this week. Perhaps next week you could enter, if you study hard enough.<</leopold>> <<player>>Very well... I will see what I can do.<</player>> <</if>> <<andreas>>Next meeting we will continue to review your progress. I personally look forward to tutoring you again, ?title.<</andreas>> <<andreas>>And with that, I will close this meeting of the council.

<<setlocation 'Wardrobe'>> <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>> <<include 'Outfit Kitchen Maid'>> <<else>> <<include 'Outfit Manservant'>> <</if>> You head into your bedroom and open your wardrobe.

<<setlocation 'Gatehouse'>> <<first>> As you're making your way through the long corridors of the castle, you feel your heartbeat thumping in your chest. The closer you get to the gate, the more you start to think this is a really stupid idea. What if they recognise you? How would the guards feel about finding their Prince, trying to sneak out with a disguise like this. ?Andreas would be so disappointed...?nl You're forced to swallow your insecurities as you're walking towards the big gates of the castle. Just a few more meters... <<guard>>You! Stop right there!<</guard>> You stop dead in your tracks as you see the guard pointing towards you. <<player>>Uhm, yes, how can I help you sir?<</player>> <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>> You try to use your most feminine voice as you give him your reply. You hope you don't sound as stupid as you think you do. <<guard>>You're that new kitchen maid right? Please state the reason for leaving the castle.<</guard>> You pull up your shawl and try to avoid eye contact. You feel the guard's leering gaze pass over you as he's inspecting you. <<player>>I'm out on some errands, sir. I need to pick up some ingredients for the kitchen from town.<</player>> You feel very small standing in front of this strong guardsman. As prince, you could easily command him to stand aside but that's obviously not an option now. <<guard>>Ah, very well. Good luck at the market then, be sure not to stay away for long.<</guard>> <<player>>Thank you, sir. I'll be careful.<</player>> You hurriedly walk past him through the open gate and let out a big sigh of relief. How have they not recognised you? The idea of their prince crossdressing to get out of the castle is so ridiculous, the thought probably hasn't even crossed their minds. <<else>> You try to not let the guard see your face as much, taking to look at the floor instead. <<guard>>You're that new manservant right? Please state the reason for leaving the castle.<</guard>> You feel the guard's leering gaze pass over you as he's inspecting you. <<player>>I'm out on some errands, sir.

The idea of their prince disguising as a pauper to get out of the castle is so ridiculous, the thought probably hasn't even crossed their minds. <</if>> <<finally>> Even though it's not the first time you leave the castle like this, it still feels scary walking towards the gates. You walk by the guards, hoping that they don't stop you before you go outside. One of the guards looks you over and gives you a nod as you move towards the exit. It seems like they're used to you as a new <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>>kitchen maid<<else>>manservant<</if>> now. <</first>> <<decision 'Head to the forest' 'Meadow'>> <</decision>> <<if hasCompletedQuest('sybille-tavern')>> <<decision 'Head to town' 'Road'>> <</decision>> <</if>>

<<setlocation 'Gatehouse'>> You quickly make your way through the castle gates, hoping not to be stopped by the guards again. As you slowly walk through and look over to the guard post, it seems to be your lucky day. The guard on duty is currently leaning against a wall with his eyes closed and snoring loudly. You easily walk back inside, deciding to ignore this slightly worrying security breach and accept it as a blessing right now.?nl Very deftly, you make your way through the hallways until you reach the door to your bedroom and you quickly make your way inside. From here, it's probably smart to head to your wardrobe right away and change into one of your normal outfits. <<decision 'Sneak into your bedroom and change clothes' 'Bedroom'>> <<include 'Outfit Standard'>> <</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Gatehouse'>> You try to nonchalantly make your way through the gate, but as you could have expected, you are stopped by the guards. <<guard>>Halt- Uh, ?title, why did you come from outside? Aren't you supposed to stay in the castle? ?Andreas specifically ordered it.<</guard>> <<player>>Well, yes... I was just outside for a little bit...<</player>> You're not quite sure how to handle this situation where you obviously disobeyed the rules. <<guard>>Uhm, we'll have to report this to <<name andreas 'Chancellor'>>. He's not going to like this.<</guard>> Oh no, you definitely don't want them to do that. ?Andreas is going to be so disappointed in you... <<player>>Yes, you could do that, but then again... ?Andreas is not going to be happy with the guards who failed to protect the prince by letting him leave the castle, right? You're the ones on duty so unfortunately it is your responsibility...<</player>> You do your best to try and persuade them. <<player>>Perhaps it's best if we both just look the other way, there's no need to get ?Andreas involved in this.<</player>> The guard looks at you a little reluctantly. <<guard>>Fine... Perhaps that is for the best. But please, ?title. I must urge you not to leave the castle again without an escort. There might be more assassins about.<</guard>> <<player>>Thank you for your concern, soldier. I must be going now though.<</player>> The guard stands back and resumes their position. You nod at the guard and make your way down the hallway. <<decision 'Leave' 'Hallway'>> <</decision>>

You walk up to the castle guards, standing next to the closed gates. <<if hasTag('crossdressing')>> <<guard>>Ah, another kitchen maid.

Both guards stare at you very closely as they wait for you to pass. <<guard>>Come on, get a move on, maid!<</guard>> As you pass the guard through the gate he gives you a loud smack on your ass. You yelp out in surprise and hurriedly make your way out the castle. <<guard>>Wouldn't mind getting a piece of that!<</guard>> The guards both start laughing as you exit the gates.

As your eyes fully adjust to the dim light you can see a soldier stroking his dick.?nl His speed increases, and you hear a few barely stifled groans before his orgasm takes him.<<if settings.cum>> You watch as he shoots strand after strand of cum onto his chest. Hope he had a plan to clean that up...<</if>> Regardless of how you felt about this experience, the image of his erect cock is seared into your mind - available for later use should you find need of it... <</if>> <<else>> You eventually locate the source of the disturbance. Two beds away from you, you can see faint movement. As you focus your ears in that direction, you hear a faint whimper set over a soft, rhythmic squelching sound. Your eyes finally adjust and you can make out a female soldier, chest slowly heaving as she tries to control her heavy breathing.?nl Your heartbeat quickens as you scan her covered form and begin identifying curves and edges. Though a blanket still covers her, from its drape you can tell her legs are spread wide underneath. A tantalizing proposition, made more alluring as you hear her breath quicken, barely audible over the quiet, continual, slick squishing of her fingers in her pussy. Surely she could use someone to help her...?nl Before you accidentally expose yourself as a voyeur, you hear her breathing stop as she holds her breath. This change is accompanied by the soft rustle of the wool blanket as her legs close, her whole body tensing in erotica bliss. You can't see her face, but you can imagine the look of concentration as she struggles to remain silent while coasting into her climax. With a soft exhale, you realize she is done, and soon you see her rise and head to the bathroom. You suppose it is time to make your way out as well, before you are discovered.?nl <</if>> <<decision "Sneak back out of the barracks" 'Bedtime'>><</decision>>

You enter the barracks to find the soldiers in the middle of an intense workout session. The air is thick with the smell of sweat, and the sounds of grunts and heavy breathing fill the room. Soldiers of all ranks are engaged in various exercises: lifting weights, doing push-ups, and wrestling each other. You take a walk around the barracks, inspecting the dedicated workout session of the group. Several soldiers notice you and you feel like they're actually pushing harder after learning that you're here, perhaps looking to make a good impression on you. <<guard>>Good day, ?title! It's an honor to have you here.<</guard>> <<player>>Good day. Keep up the hard work. Your dedication is appreciated.<</player>> As you walk through the barracks, you can't help but notice the soldiers' toned and sweaty bodies. The sight leaves you feeling slightly flustered, especially when you see the lean body of the sergeant walking up to you. She is using a towel to wipe off some sweat from her forehead as she greets you. <<sergeant>>?Title, welcome to the barracks, nice of you to visit us. Perhaps you would care to join us in our workout? I know the troops would really appreciate it.<</sergeant>> <<decision 'Join in on the workout'>> You decide to take up the offer and join their workout. You quickly get changed in something a bit more comfortable for exercises and make your way over to the sergeant. <<sergeant>>That's the spirit, ?title! We're currently lifting weights, do you need any help? I can help you with your pose if you want.<</sergeant>> <<decision 'Decline and show off as much as possible' masculinity small>> You want to make a good impression so you decide to act a bit cocky to her. <<player>>Pff! Sergeant, I have more than enough experience with lifting those sacks of sand. Now hand me the bar.<</player>> You point to the long wooden stick with a heavy sack filled with sand attached on both sides. The sergeant cocks and eyebrow but does as you say, probably waiting to see if your attitude is deserved.?nl You lift the bar over your head and actually surprise yourself as you manage to lift it over your head a few times. Your balance is flimsy and your stance is wobbly but you manage to actually get in a few repetitions. You throw the sacks down, muscles aching from the exercise. <<sergeant>>Hah! I must say I'm actually impressed, ?title. Let's see if you can keep this up for the entire workout.<</sergeant>> You spend quite some time in the barracks working out with the troops. Though you're definitely not as experienced at this as your hardened soldiers, you're doing quite well and it seems like the men are impressed with you being here, especially the sergeant. <<decision 'Finish the workout' 'Hallway'>><<increasetime 1 true>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Accept and follow her instructions' submissiveness small>> <<player>>That would actually be nice, yes.<</player>> <<sergeant>>Very good, ?title. Please, follow me.<</sergeant>> While you are lifting a long wooden stick with heavy sacks of sands attached, the sergeant spends quite some time correcting your pose. She gets quite close to you and wraps her arms around you to help you achieve the right position. You feel quite vulnerable as her scent starts having a titillating effect on you.?nl After only ten minutes you are already completely exhausted from the workout and fall to the floor, panting. <<sergeant>>A bit too much for you, eh ?title? It's no shame to admit you need to stop for now.<</sergeant>> <<player>>Maybe that's for the best, yes...<</player>> The sergeant lends you a hand and gets you back on your feet. Some of the soldiers look at you with a slightly surprised look, they probably expected you to last a bit longer with this. <<sergeant>>Don't worry, ?title. You gave it your all! We'll be continuing the workout but you can go get cleaned up.<</sergeant>> You thank her for the help while you make your way over to get freshened up and leave the barracks. <<decision 'Finish the workout' 'Hallway'>><<increasetime 1 true>><</decision>> <</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Decline the offer'>> <<player>>Sorry, sergeant. I was just having a look around. I unfortunately don't have time for such things right now.<</player>> The sergeant nods to you and lets you get on with your day. <<decision 'Leave' 'Hallway'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

You enter the barracks to find the soldiers engaged in lively sparring matches. The clashing of swords and the shouts of exertion echo through the room. Soldiers of all ranks are testing their skills against one another, their movements swift and precise. As you walk through the barracks, you can't help but admire their technique and dedication. Several soldiers notice you and pause their matches to offer respectful nods. <<guard>>Good day, ?title! It's an honor to have you here.<</guard>> <<player>>Good day. Your sparring looks impressive. Keep up the hard work.<</player>> You continue to observe the matches, feeling a mixture of admiration and excitement. The sergeant approaches you, a grin on her face. <<sergeant>>?Title, would you care to join us for a sparring match? It's a great way to keep your skills sharp.<</sergeant>> <<decision 'Join in the sparring match'>> <<player>>Why not? It's been a while since I had a good sparring session.<</player>> <<sergeant>>Excellent! Let's see what you've got, ?title!<</sergeant>> The soldiers form a circle around you as you take up a practice sword. Your opponent, a seasoned soldier, steps forward and bows respectfully before taking his stance. <<if getStatLevel('swordsmanship') < $player.levelexpectation>> <<changestat swordsmanship small>> Despite your best efforts, your opponent's skill and experience quickly overwhelm you. You find yourself struggling to keep up with his swift and precise movements. After a few intense minutes, he disarms you with a final, decisive strike. <<guard>>Well fought, ?title! You've got spirit, that's for sure.<</guard>> <<player>>Thank you. It seems I still have much to learn.<</player>> <<sergeant>>Don't be discouraged, ?title. Every defeat is a lesson.

The clash of swords echoes through the barracks as you anticipate and counter his attacks. With a final, well-placed strike, you disarm your opponent, sending his sword clattering to the ground. <<guard>>Impressive, ?title! Your skills are truly remarkable.<</guard>> <<player>>Thank you. It's been a while since I've had such a challenging match.<</player>> <<sergeant>>Well done, ?title! It's clear you've been practicing hard.

You enter the barracks to find the soldiers engaged in their usual activities. As you walk through, observing the troops, you notice ?Caspar in the middle of a small group of soldiers, he looks slightly uncomfortable. The soldiers seem to be teasing him, their tone mocking. <<guard>>Look who it is, the <<name wymerus 'Lord Marshal' none>>'s favorite! Thinks he's better than us because he's got connections, huh?<</guard>> <<caspar>>It's not like that. I work hard just like everyone else. That's why he made me his squire!<</caspar>> The soldiers laugh, clearly enjoying themselves at ?Caspar's expense. You feel a surge of indignation on his behalf. <<decision 'Stand up for Caspar' dominance small>> You decide to stand up for ?Caspar. <<player>>That's enough! ?Caspar works hard and deserves respect. I won't tolerate this kind of behavior.<</player>> The soldiers immediately stop their teasing, looking surprised and a bit ashamed. <<guard>>?Title, we were just having a bit of fun. No harm meant.<</guard>> <<player>>Fun or not, everyone here deserves respect. Especially someone as dedicated as ?Caspar.<</player>> The soldiers nod, muttering apologies, and disperse. ?Caspar gives you a grateful look. <<caspar>>Thank you, ?title. I appreciate it.<</caspar>> <<player>>You're welcome, ?Caspar. Don't let them get to you.<</player>> <<decision 'Take your leave' 'Hallway'>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Do not intervene' submissiveness small>> You decide not to intervene and see how the situation unfolds. Before you can decide whether to walk away, a sergeant steps in, her eyes blazing with anger. <<sergeant>>What's going on here? Bullying a fellow soldier, especially in front of the prince? You should be ashamed of yourselves!<</sergeant>> The soldiers immediately straighten up, looking embarrassed. <<sergeant>>I don't care if he's ?Wymerus's favorite or not. Everyone here deserves respect. Consider this your warning. If I see this behavior again, there will be consequences.<</sergeant>> The soldiers nod, muttering apologies, and quickly disperse. The sergeant turns to you and ?Caspar. <<sergeant>>I apologize for their behavior, ?title. It won't happen again.<</sergeant>> <<player>>Thank you, sergeant. I appreciate your intervention.<</player>> <<caspar>>Thank you, ?sergeant. I... I'll be fine.<</caspar>> The sergeant nods and returns to her duties, leaving you and ?Caspar. <<decision 'Take your leave' 'Hallway'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

You set out in the woods to find some mushrooms.

Feeling the adventurous spirit, you make your way into a part of the woods you haven't been to before. After a long time travelling without any luck in mushrooms you manage to find a nice patch of them next to some trees. At least... Whatever's left of them.

?Hyssop hands you the new dress with a gleeful smile on their face. <<hyssop>>Go on, try it on! I can't wait to see how it looks!<</hyssop>> You look around their hut kind of awkwardly, it definitely feels too intense to change in front of their. They suddenly seems to notice your reluctance. <<hyssop>>Oh! Right, you'd probably want to change in my bedroom, go ahead!<</hyssop>> Relieved, you take the dress into their bedroom and try it on there. You're not sure why you're doing this but it feels really nice to try on these clothes. You take off your earlier garbs and slide the dress over your head. Strangely enough it actually seems to fit perfectly. You double check whether you put it on correctly and take a deep breath before stepping out of the bedroom to show ?Hyssop. <<hyssop>>Oh my, that looks amazing! I know I'm basically complimenting myself when I say that but I actually think you're looking great in it! How does it feel?<</hyssop>> You blush slightly and look away, hearing their compliments. <<player>>T- thanks ?Hyssop. I think I really like it...<</player>> <<hyssop>>Yeah, and it fits almost perfectly, look at that! I'll just need to make some small adjustment here...<</hyssop>> ?Hyssop moves to adjust your side, measuring how the dress fits your body. <<hyssop>>There, should be completely perfect now! Give us a twirl!<</hyssop>> Something about their enthusiasm makes you feel excited as well. You try to give a quick but beautiful twirl. While you spin, the bottom part of your dress moves upwards in the air. There's something about wearing the dress that actually feels freeing. You look at yourself in the mirror and suddenly catch yourself getting a glimpse of a different person. You know that it's actually yourself looking back but looking at that now, you feel like a different person altogether. This moment has you feeling excited and strange at the same time. <<player>>It- It's wonderful, ?Hyssop. Thank you.<</player>> They look at you with a proud smile. <<hyssop>>I'm glad you like it!

Your body is lithe and lean, with barely any muscle definition to speak of. You've always been a little bit on the smaller side, with a slight frame and delicate features.

You take your dick in hand and stroke it gently, feeling a tingle of pleasure run through your body. You close your eyes and let your mind wander. There is a new servant who works in the kitchen, <<name rosa>>. You would love to get closer with her - not that you have any experience with <em>that</em> - but simply thinking of her makes you feel ecstatic.

Her predecessor, <<name godric 'Master'>>, used to be your teacher until he left to accompany your father. Thinking about it, you've never really interacted with this disciple of his besides saying hello a few times. She has quite the mysterious air to her. [[Listen to Andreas as he continues the meeting | Introduction Council 2]]

<<andreas>>Now for the matter at hand. Honourable council, when the <<name king>> left he told me we have a job to do: We need to find an alliance with one of our neighboring kingdoms. It is high time we strengthen our position, forging a pact with a powerful ally will do exactly that.<</andreas>> You see <<name leopold 'Trademaster'>> stand up from his chair. <<leopold>>Hear hear! I have been advocating for this plan for years now, I am glad the <<name king>> agrees as well.<</leopold>> <<name wymerus 'Lord Marshal'>> speaks up. <<wymerus>>I agree with this strategy. With the <<name king>> away on his quest, I fear we are less defensible. Our army is in need of a strengthening alliance.<</wymerus>> Suddenly <<name sybille 'Spymaster'>> stands up. She has a soft spoken voice but is very direct in her tone. <<sybille>> My Lords, I agree with the necessity of the plan, however, our diplomatic relations have been strained recently. It seems that currently only one reliable method of alliance-making remains: A royal marriage.<</sybille>> Suddenly you feel the room looking at you. You respond with a certain uncertainty in the your voice as the proposition catches you off guard. <<player>>Marriage? I am the my father's only child, are you saying you're looking for someone to marry me?<</player>> <<sybille>>I am, ?title. But do not fear, there is a complication that makes this solution quite difficult. Unfortunately, none of our neighboring nations have an available princess in the royal family, only eligible bachelors.<</sybille>> You feel slightly relieved, it's unfortunate that you can't help the kingdom this way, but you are definitely <em>not</em> ready for marriage. <<andreas>>Well, about that matter, I gathered <<name morgana 'Lady'>> has a solution to this problem. My lady, would you care to elaborate on this?<</andreas>> As you shift your attention to <<name morgana 'the sorceress' none>>, you notice she has been staring at you. She makes eye contact with you and you see the hint of a smile on her face. She stands up slowly and addresses the room. <<morgana>>That matter is best discussed between myself and the young prince. ?Title, perhaps you could offer me a visit in the library sometime later?<</morgana>> You are confused as to why she is being so secretive, but you nod towards her. <<player>>Of course, if that's what the new royal sorceress asks.<</player>> While looking at the rest of the council you notice <<name dominic 'Father'>>, the religious representation in the council, eying <<name morgana>> suspiciously. He was never in favor on letting wizards and witches on the council. [[Turn to Andreas as he addresses you directly | Introduction Council 3]]

<<andreas>>Very well. In the mean time, the <<name king>> has also charged us councillors with continuing your education while he is gone, ?title. It's important that you keep up your skills in matters of state and sword. You can always come by to start your training, the councillors will make time for you.<</andreas>> Each of your instructors stands up to address you. <<leopold>>?Title, come find me in the Treasury whenever you want to continue your education in stewardship.<</leopold>> <<wymerus>>If you're looking to improve your skills in swordsmanship, I'm usually sparring together with my squire out in the Courtyard. You are more than welcome to join us, ?title.<</wymerus>> <<andreas>>And you can find me right in this room, visit me so we can continue your education in statesmanship.<</andreas>> People have great expectations of the heir to the kingdom, your father and the council find it utmost important that you improve your necessary skills. You haven't been that keen to do this yourself. It's rather boring. But alas, royalty requires conciliation so you give them all an understanding nod. <<andreas>>During the next council sessions we will review your progress, ?title. I know feels quite invasive but know that we only mean the best for you. Your father has charged us with this task and we will do everything we can to help you in this regard. And to make these matters more appealing to you I have decided together with the other councillors to give you a reward should you live up to our expectations.<</andreas>> /* <<player>>If my father has decided this is important... Fine, I will try to do my best.<</player>> */ You are immediately much more intrigued at hearing about a reward when ?Andreas turns to ?Leopold. <<player>>A reward? What is it?<</player>> You sit up in your chair, waiting anxiously to hear more about this reward. <<leopold>>Yes, ?title. We have decided that should you pass our inquiry on our weekly council meetings, I will allow you to enter the ?reliquary and pick out an artifact. Of course, not all of them are safe so I wouldn't be able to lend those to you but there are quite a few magical items that you might find particularly interesting.<</leopold>> An artifact from the ?reliquary! Your father never allowed you to touch the things in there, this is amazing! You struggle containing your excitement as you try to hold back a beaming smile. <<player>>A royal artifact? That is quite something... Thank you councillors, I will do my very best to impress you and pass your examination next week!<</player>> <<andreas>>Very good, ?title. And with that, I suppose that concludes the meeting of this council, thank you my lords, my lady. ?Title, it was good to have you in attendance.<</andreas>> All the council members start to leave the chamber to get back to their respective duties. <<decision 'Leave the grand hall' 'Introduction Kathryn'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation Hallway>> As you make your way through the large doors of the grand hall, you notice ?Kathryn down the hallway walking towards you. Because of her family's importance, your father took her in as his ward some time ago. Since then, she's been noticeably jealous of you for having a more prominent position than her. While all nobles of the court usually respect you because of your title, she is one of the few people who never adhered to that. She likes bullying you for all kinds of stuff. You can't remember the last conversation you've had where she wasn't condescending towards you about any arbitrary thing she decides to belittle you for.?nl You've learning to recognise that when she's approaching you this intently with that deviously smile on her face, it usually means bad times for you. <<kathryn>>Hello there, ?titleK. What's this talk I hear of your upcoming royal marriage?<</kathryn>> <<player>>No, that's a lie! Who told you that? How are you supposed to know that? Isn't that secret council information?<</player>> She gives a slight laugh as she sees your irritation growing. <<kathryn>>Ah well let's just say that I have my ways... Anyways, relax my ?titleK, I was just kidding. I know the plans can't really go through because there are no available princesses. That must give you quite a relief, or who knows, maybe you could marry another prince instead. Does that thought excite you?<</kathryn>> <<decision 'Reply flabbergasted by her suggestion' submissiveness medium>> <<player>>What?- No, of course not!<</player>> <<kathryn>>It's fine, ?titleK. No need to admit to any feelings right now. I'm just very keen to see what our new <<name morgana 'sorceresses' none>> solution is to your little 'no princess' problem... I hear she has quite the experience with some powerful magic.<</kathryn>> <<player>>What's that supposed to mean? Also, how do you even know about that as well?<</player>> Her remarks are making you quite anxious which is very noticeable from the worried tone in your questions. <<kathryn>>You're easily scared, aren't you, ?titleK? Don't worry, you'll probably get your answers soon. Now just run along, don't you have any princely business to attend to or something?<</kathryn>> You never really enjoy your interactions with ?Kathryn, it seems like you always get humiliated somehow. She's right though, you have enough to do for today. With ?Morgana expecting you in the library and the rest of the council waiting for you to start training, it's probably going to be quite busy. <<decision 'Leave to find Morgana' 'Chapter'>><<include 'Introduction Finish'>><</decision>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Respond in kind' dominance medium>> <<player>>Really? You're going to bully me with something so trivial? I suppose you're just jealous I'm the one that everyone looks to when it comes to actual important stuff. Nobody cares about little <<name kathryn 'Lady'>>, a member of <em>my</em> court.<</player>> She looks quite shocked by your bold reply. <<kathryn>>Wha- You little shi- Fine, have fun being coddled by all the councillors over unimportant stuff like this. I'm actually keen to see how our new <<name morgana 'sorceress' none>> will solve this 'no princess' issue for you...<</kathryn>> And how did she know about that? While you wonder that she already walks off, leaving you alone.?nl Well, you can't keep chatting anyways, you have enough to do for today.

<<setlocation Road>> You make your way along the road back to the castle. You always enjoy this walk by yourself on Sundays after church. It's a good moment to reflect on <<name dominic 'Father'>> teachings, or mostly just think about critical he is of you in that confession booth. It's unfortunate that going to church isn't really an optional thing for you.?nl As you're walking across the narrow cobbled path up the hill you notice someone walking a small distance behind you. You take a quick peek back at him, you can barely see his face under his hood but it looks like he has a large scar across his face. Strange, what business would this unknown man have at the castle??nl As you contemplate this, it almost seems like he is in a hurry as he suddenly starts walking faster, inching closer towards you. You think to yourself: <<player short>>Perhaps he's one of ?Leopold's new tradesmen.<</player>>, but the moment you take a peek behind you to get another look at him you now notice he has pulled out a knife and is running towards you. <<say 'Assassin' 'images/portraits/assassin.jpg'>>It's nothing personal, prince.<</say>> <<decision 'Fight him off' dominance large swordsmanship 1>> <<addtag 'fought-assassin'>> <<startquest 'assassination-attempt'>> You quickly turn around and get ready to fight him.

At least you already made this assassination attempt more difficult for him.?nl He gives you a foul headbutt to your cheek, you don't have time to think about the pain all you can focus on is getting that dagger. As you are on top, you quickly push yourself off the ground and sprint for the dagger lying close by.?nl He pulls at your leg and tries to run past you.

She looks at you with a smile. <<morgana>>It's okay, ?title. You're still in shock but you will feel better soon.<</morgana>> After a little while, the large doors of the grand hall are thrown open as you see ?Andreas walk hurriedly towards you, behind him are most of the other councillors and a retinue of guards surrounding the hall. <<andreas>>What has happened? Is the prince well?<</andreas>> ?Andreas was always a stern man but you have never heard him speak so direct with such a shocked expression. ?Morgana takes a moment to talk explain the assassination attempt that happened earlier and reassure them you are doing well. ?Andreas gives a nod and addresses the councillors here. <<andreas>>In light of this, I open this emergency meeting of the council. We need to act swiftly. <<name wymerus 'Lord'>>, secure the castle, we are on complete lockdown until further notice. <<name sybille 'Lady'>>, apprehend the perpetrator and lock him in the dungeons.<</andreas>> <<sybille>>He is already being fetched, my lord.<</sybille>> <<andreas>>Good, we need to know who sent him. This might have been an act of aggression coming from one of our neighbors, and if so, it might be the start of a larger attack. We need to secure our position.<</andreas>> The councillors take some time to discuss emergency measures taken in response to this event. Even though it's very stressful environment right now, you feel yourself calming down now that you know you are once again safe. ?Andreas looks at you as he gives out another order. <<andreas>>?Title. We must ensure your security from now on. I think it is best that you stay inside the castle for now, and only ever leave with armed escort when going outside.<</andreas>> Before you can give a response, ?Andreas looks at the rest of the council. <<andreas>>All in favour of these measures? Good, then I close this meeting, there's work to do.<</andreas>> One by one the councillors leave except for ?Morgana. <<morgana>>Fear not, ?title. Everyone is just on edge because of what happened. We all want to protect you. How are you feeling?<</morgana>> <<player>>I'm doing much better, I have to thank you again, ?Morgana.

As you enter your bedchambers, ready to just hop into your bed, you see ?Orson here, seemingly waiting for you. <<orson>>?Title, I heard what happened, I am so glad to see you are alright.<</orson>> <<player>>Thank you, ?Orson. It was quite an eventful day and I think I might just want to take a rest.<</player>> <<orson>>Of course, ?title.

In the middle of your shift, a small group of young women in peasant dresses comes into the tavern. They take a seat in a corner, giggling loudly together.?nl As you approach to take their orders, you overhear some of their conversation. They seem to be talking about...you? <<say "Brown-haired peasant girl">>Did you ladies see how <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>cute<<else>>handsome<</if>> the prince looked at church?

Do you think he would ever fall for a town girl?<</say>> <<say "Blonde peasant girl">>Maybe he already has! He smiled at me last Sunday and my heart almost melted!<</say>> You clear your throat. The young women look at you with some annoyance, as though you have just interrupted an incredibly important discussion, and give you their orders quickly. You head back to the bar, thinking how strange it is to overhear townspeople talking about you like this. Not only that, but they also seem to think you're...attractive??nl Before you can dwell on it too much, activity in the tavern picks up and you are distracted with an influx of orders. <<decision 'Finish your shift' 'Tavern Work End'>><</decision>>

It's a slow shift at the tavern. You are quite bored until one woman walks in you've never seen before. She is dressed in the lavish clothes of a noblewoman, and is conspicuously alone. She enters, takes a seat at the bar, and waves you over.?nl As you approach, you see this woman is attractive and seems to know it. She carries herself gracefully, and wears a beautiful dress that accentuates her features without being revealing. She looks you up and down. <<say "Noblewoman">>Well, hello there, <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>lovely girl<<else>>handsome boy<</if>>. I require a glass of your finest wine, and perhaps some company, if you're as bored as I would be working here.<</say>> <<player>>Uh, yes, of course, my lady...<</player>> It feels a bit strange, someone being so forward with you, and you're not sure what she means by "company." Still, you bring her a glass of the good wine and she gives you a smile that seems almost calculating. <<say "Noblewoman">>I see you have no other customers to serve right now. Stay with me at the bar for a moment.<</say>> <<player>>I- well, I suppose...<</player>> <<say "Noblewoman">>I will share a secret with you. I have escaped my travelling companions to come here, so that I could drink in peace.<</say>> This woman is intriguing, and you have little else to do, so you figure you might as well listen to her. <<player>>Is that so?<</player>> <<say "Noblewoman">>Indeed. I have rather particular taste.<</say>> <<player>>In wine?<</player>> The noblewoman inclines her head. <<say "Noblewoman">>In wine, yes, but also company. I find lords and ladies to be dull. Everyday people such as yourself have so much more to offer.<</say>> She gives you a long, suggestive look. Is she trying to seduce you? You can't think of any other reason she would act like this. She seems to notice you considering her words and leans forward slightly on the bar, revealing the barest glimpse of her ample cleavage.?nl Part of you is definitely excited by this woman. There aren't many customers this evening; you could easily sneak into the alley with her for some fun. On the other hand, you are in the middle of your shift, and you wouldn't want to get caught fooling around on the clock...?nl <<decision 'Pretend to be unaware of her flirting' 'Tavern Work Event Noblewoman Rejected' virtue medium>><</decision>> <<decision 'Subtly show her your interest' depravity medium>> You open your mouth to say something suave, but in your excitement a jumble of sounds embarrassingly unlike words comes out. You feel your cheeks grow hot. If anything, the noblewoman seems to enjoy your awkwardness. <<say "Noblewoman">>I walked through an alley on my way here. Perhaps you could show me what you have to offer there?<</say>> She subtly points toward the back door of the tavern, a smile playing on her lips. Then, without another word, she downs her drink, stands, and exits the building toward the alley.?nl Feeling a mixture of excitement and anxiety, you wait a few moments until no one is looking and follow. <<decision 'Find her in the alley' 'Tavern Work Event Noblewoman Oral'>><</decision>> <</decision>>

<<set $paycheck += 2>> <<player>>I'm sure I wouldn't know, my lady. I really must get back to my work now.<</player>> The noblewoman leans back and gives you a polite nod, slipping effortless back into formality. <<say "Noblewoman">>Of course.<</say>> This whole interaction made you feel quite awkward, so you pretend to be busy with something in the kitchen until she leaves. When you come to take away her glass, you find her payment plus a small tip of <<money gold false 2>>gold on the counter. <<decision 'Finish your shift' 'Tavern Work End'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Alley'>> <<set $paycheck += 2>> You walk out of the tavern and see the woman leaning against the wall of a building.

It's not an honor many common people can attest to.<</say>> Though this situation has you turned on, you have to stop yourself from laughing at her perception of you as a simple townsperson. If anything, you are the opposite of what she believes. <<player>>I- uh, that is, yes, my lady...<</player>> <<say "Noblewoman">>Wonderful. Then get on your knees, my <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>pretty little<<else>>dashing<</if>> peasant.<</say>> You lower yourself onto your knees and watch as she lifts the hem of her skirt. You expect to see her underwear, but instead come suddenly face-to-face with the bare lips between her legs.?nl Trying not to get distracted by thinking about how much of a turn your evening has taken, you reach out a hand and trace it cautiously between her legs. She moans softly, and your fingers come away surprisingly wet. <<say "Noblewoman">>Don't tease me, <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>girl<<else>>boy<</if>>. Put your mouth on it.<</say>> You reach your head forward and tentatively begin to lick between her soft folds. It tastes a bit strange, but you enjoy the way that your tongue elicits a low moan from her. Your movements, slow at first, speed up as you notice what she likes and gain confidence in your movements. <<say "Noblewoman">>Fuck, that's a good <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>girl<<else>>boy<</if>>, pleasuring a noblewoman above your station in a dirty little alley...<</say>> You wonder vaguely whether this woman has some strange attraction to sexual encounters with peasants. Would she be disappointed if she knew you were a royal? You try to ignore these thoughts and focus on your movements. <<say "Noblewoman">>Just like that, keep going...<</say>> You continue moving your tongue around her clitoris, feeling her start to push herself onto your mouth as she seeks out the sensation. You feel your ?dick hard in your pants, but it would be difficult to touch yourself in this position. <<say "Noblewoman">>I'm close...<</say>> You are starting to have some difficulty breathing as she presses herself onto you, but you keep up the motion that she seems to like. Your face is now covered in her wetness. It feels both messy and somehow incredibly alluring. <<say "Noblewoman">>Oh, I'm cumming...<</say>> You feel her move through a series of spasms as she orgasms on your mouth, letting out a moan of pleasure. After a moment of quiet, she runs a hand casually through your hair. <<say "Noblewoman">>You have performed wonderfully for your noblelady. I must return to my companions before they become too concerned for my whereabouts.<</say>> As you stand up, she gives you a handful of coins and disappears back into the town without another word. As you stand there, watching her go, you realize she has left you a small tip of <<money gold false 2>>gold.?nl You're still hard, but you really need to get back to your shift before ?Velma notices you're gone. <<if settings.sph>>Luckily your bulge is too small to be visible through your <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>dress<<else>>pants<</if>>, so you head back quickly into the tavern.<<else>>You adjust your erection so that it doesn't show through your <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>dress<<else>>pants<</if>> and head back into the tavern.<</if>> <<decision 'Finish your shift' 'Tavern Work End'>><</decision>>

At the beginning of your shift, a very old woman enters the tavern and sits down at a long table normally used by large groups. She proceeds to spend the rest of the evening berating you about everything you do, complaining that you bring her drinks too slowly, that your manner is boorish, your clothes unkempt, and that the drinks are of poor quality. To your chagrin, she even stays past closing time, and you have to ask her to leave. As you stand there, waiting for her to get up from the table while she complains about poor service, something inside you snaps. <<player>>Why are you like this?<</player>> The old woman finally gets up and starts walking toward the door. <<say 'Old woman'>>This is just how I get my frustrations out! Don't take it personally, <<if hasTag('crossdresser')>>girl<<else>>boy<</if>>.<</say>> Without another word, she walks out the door, leaving you speechless. You're not sure you've ever met a more unpleasant person. <<decision 'Finish your shift' 'Tavern Work End'>><</decision>>

It's pretty early in your shift and the place is already packed. Plates and mugs clatter as the evening rush peaks, but for you, it feels like everything is slipping through your fingers. <<eve>>?newname, that table over there asked for wine, not ale!<</eve>> ?Eve's voice is as bright as ever, but there's a tinge of worry underneath. You glance at the table she's pointing to and see a burly man staring at you with raised eyebrows, the ale you just brought sitting in front of him. <<player>>Oh! My apologies, I'll fix it right away!<</player>> You turn toward the kitchen, tray in hand, but your footing falters. A mug of ale wobbles dangerously and tumbles off the tray, hitting the floor with a loud crash. Your face burns as you crouch to clean up the mess, muttering apologies under your breath. <<velma>>Are you doing alright, ?newname?<</velma>> You look up to see ?Velma standing behind the bar, her arms crossed, her expression a mixture of concern and disappointment.?nl Before you can answer, disaster strikes again. As you dart around the bar, your sleeve snags on a precarious pile of tankards, cautiously laid out in preparation for the evening. Time seems to slow as they tip, fall, and scatter across the floor in a cascade of clanging sounds. To you, the moment seems to last one full eternity as all the noise in the room is suddenly drowned out with the loud breaking and bouncing of mugs. The frequency of clattering sounds starts to decrease as the pile seems to finally be expended.?nl Only after the last tankard falls, the room erupts with laughter and some concerned murmurs. You quickly try to gather them up, most of them seem intact but a good amount are definitely broken as you find some lonely ears and chipped off pieces. ?Eve quickly hurries over with a broom and takes a moment to kneel beside you. <<eve>>It's okay! It's just mugs. Happens to the best of us... though, um, maybe not all at once!<</eve>> You manage a weak smile, but it fades as ?Velma approaches, her face firm. <<velma>>That's enough for tonight, ?newname. You're clearly exhausted.<</velma>> <<player>>I'm so sorry ?madame, I can clean this up!<</player>> <<velma>>No, please, just go home and leave this to ?Eve. Take some rest, ?newname. Everyone has an off day, but pushing through when you're like this will only make things worse.<</velma>> ?Velma is likely disappointed but doesn't seem to let that show much. ?Eve gives you an encouraging nod as she starts cleaning up. <<eve>>She's right, you know. And hey, tomorrow I'll teach you my trick for not dropping everything all at once. It's a lifesaver!<</eve>> You can't help but chuckle faintly, despite the embarrassment tightening your chest. <<player>>Thanks... I'm sorry you have to do this.<</player>> She smiles at you to let you know it's okay. You reluctantly make your way to exit the tavern, leaving much earlier than planned. It seems like all the patrons have already forgotten about the moment and the loud carousing has resumed in full effect.?nl You step outside feeling a bit disappointed in yourself but you do feel a lot better after how ?Velma and ?Eve responded to them. You're already thinking on how you can make it up to them, you'll be much more aware the next time.?nl Pretty unfortunate to not get paid today though. <<decision 'Leave' 'Town square'>> <<addcounter 'velma-tavern' 1>> <</decision>>

<<set $paycheck += 15>> The tavern is alive with the evening rush, the clinking of mugs and hum of conversations creating a familiar, comforting rhythm. Tonight, everything seems to fall into place. Orders come quickly, and you move with confidence, balancing trays and weaving through crowded tables like you've been doing this your whole life. <<eve>>?newname, you're on fire tonight! That table over there just said you brought out the best ale they've ever had. It's the same ale we've always served, but hey, take the win!<</eve>> Eve laughs as she nudges you playfully, her energy infectious. You grin back, your spirits soaring. Even ?Velma, ever watchful behind the bar, gives you an approving nod. <<velma>>Good work, ?newname. Keep this up, and I might start calling you a natural.<</velma>> Her praise feels monumental to you, it fuels your determination as you deliver an ale to a man seated at one of the quieter tables. His sharp, well-tailored clothing suggests he's a man of wealth, and he surveys you with a discerning gaze as you set the plate down. <<player>>Here's your drink, sir. If there's anything else you need, just let me know.<</player>> <<say 'Merchant'>>Thank you. The service has been impeccable tonight.<</say>> You smile politely as thanks and move on, continuing your smooth rhythm of clearing tables and delivering drinks. It's only later, as you return to clear his table, that you find something unexpected. A coin pouch resting on the table.?nl When you pick it up, its weight surprises you. Opening it, you find <<money gold false 15>> gleaming gold coins, far more than the cost of his meal. You glance around, but the man is already gone. <<player>>?Eve, look at this! He left me... this much? Is that normal around here?<</player>> ?Eve peers into the pouch and lets out a low whistle. <<eve>>That's... a lot. That's way more than he usually tips. Like, way, way more. I mean, he's a wealthy merchant and a regular here, but he's not known for generosity.<</eve>> <<player>>Then why would he...<</player>> ?Eve pauses, her expression turning sly as a grin spreads across her face. <<eve>>Ohhh, I get it now. He's got an eye on you! Makes sense, <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>>pretty<<else>>handsome<</if>> thing like you, he probably liked looking at more than just our cozy scenery.<</eve>> Your face flushes instantly, cheeks red. <<player>>That can't be it. He probably just had a good night... or... liked the ale!<</player>> <<eve>>Uh-huh. Sure. Whatever helps you sleep at night, ?newname.<</eve>> Her teasing grin doesn't let up as she bounces away to take another order. You're still standing there, flustered, when ?Velma calls out to you. <<velma>>?newname, stop gawking at that coin pouch and get back to work. You're doing too well tonight to slack off now.<</velma>> <<player>>Right! On it!<</player>> Tucking the pouch away carefully, you throw yourself back into the shift, though the flush on your face doesn't fade for a while. <<decision 'Finish your shift' 'Tavern Work End'>><</decision>>

The evening shift begins as usual, the tavern gradually filling with the chatter of patrons and the clink of mugs. You slip behind the bar, preparing yourself for another night of balancing trays and dodging rowdy drinkers. <<velma>>?newname, come over here for a moment.<</velma>> Her voice is calm, as it usually is, but there's an air of expectation in it that makes you pause. She's standing by the supply closet, her hands resting lightly on the handle of a mop propped against a bucket. <<player>>Yes, ?madame?<</player>> She gestures to the mop and bucket and looks at you with a stoic expression. <<velma>>Tonight, your job is cleaning the bathrooms.<</velma>> You blink, unsure if you've heard her correctly. <<player>>The bathrooms? You want <em>me</em> to...<</player>> She takes a step closer, she tilts her head and talks softy as to gently remind you of something. <<velma>>Part of your job here is fitting in. That means taking on all the same tasks that I give your colleagues, whatever they are. People will start to notice if I keep skipping you for bathroom duty.<</velma>> Though you hate admitting it, she's right... You'll have to do <em>shit</em> jobs like this from time to time as well if you want to work here. <<velma>>The tools are here. Do it properly, and it won't take as long as you think.<</velma>> <<player>>Right. I... I'll get to it.<</player>> She nods, stepping back toward the bar without another word. You grab the bucket and mop and make your way toward the bathrooms. You take a breath, steel yourself, and push open the door to get started. <<decision 'Start cleaning the bathroom' 'Tavern Work Event Bathroom Cleaning'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation Toilets>> You make your way into the bathroom. The place reeks of piss and spilled beer, the latter also contributing to the ambience by making the floor stickier, or well, you hope it's the latter. You suddenly realise that you don't quite notice how dirty a place is until you've been given the task to clean it.?nl This is probably the most extreme example of work that is complete opposite to what your royal hands are used to. Nevertheless, you grab a sponge from the bucket and start scrubbing the sinks. Since everything is dirty you figure there's not much point to thinking about what to clean first.?nl After a long while you somehow do find yourself in this decision-making thought process though. You stand before the bathroom stalls, delaying the worst by taking your time to meaninglessly decide what toilet to clean first. At least, you think it is meaningless until you stare at the doors of the last two stalls and read a cryptic note displayed between them. <<note>> Hark, fair traveler!?nl If thou seek'st thy sword well polished, turn thee left to get your way.?nl Yet if thou art a harlot, step to the right, without delay.?nl Thine deeds within are cloaked from sight; none shall say.?nl Let mouths meet wood for secret glory. Callooh callay! <</note>> Well, you're not really sure what that's all about... Probably best to just pick a stall and get this all over with. <<decision 'Pick the left stall' 'Tavern Work Event Bathroom Gloryhole Receiving' dominance small>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Pick the right stall' 'Tavern Work Event Bathroom Gloryhole Giving' submissiveness small>> <</decision>> <<decision 'Just focus on cleaning as fast as possible' 'Tavern Work Event Bathroom Cleaning Finish'>> <</decision>>

You enter the small bathroom stall and waste no time to start cleaning. You get momentarily distracted as you notice a perfectly round hole on the right wall, opening up to the stall next to you. You quickly decide to not pay it any mind and continue your toilet scrubbing.?nl Luckily the toilet wasn't in too bad a state and you quickly get done cleaning it. Even now, you are still not used to this dirty feeling and you take a moment to carefully wash your hands before you enter the stall again to start mopping the floor.?nl The moment that you enter the stall you hear someone else walk into the bathroom, you quickly lock your stall door to make sure they don't accidentally walk in while you're still cleaning, close one too as they seem to be entering the stall right next to you. The strange hole definitely decreases both your privacy. Fortunately, it's dark enough that it's difficult to really look through the hole at all.?nl You're almost done mopping the floor, taking care of every nook and cranny. The moment you turn around, you make out something strange.?nl Through the hole in the wall, you notice an open mouth and extended tongue pointing in your direction. You stare at this for quite some time, unsure what to do until the person on the other side starts talking. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Psst, are you going to give it to me or what?<</say>> Unsure what to do, you still stand there, frozen in place. <<player>>Uhm... Give you what exactly?<</player>> The hole person lets out an annoyed sigh and moves away from the hole, retreating back into the darkness. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Ugh... Do you even know what stall you are in? I'm talking about your cock, of course!<</say>> Oh... OH... Huh, the purpose of the hole and that note outside suddenly make a lot more sense now... After having a brief moment of this strange situation finally making sense you realise you still haven't answered the person in the stall next to you as you consider what to do next. Are you actually thinking about sticking your ?cock through this hole? <<if settings.sph>>You can't help but wonder if the person is even looking for someone with a penis of your size...<</if>>?nl <<decision 'Stick your cock through the hole' depravity small>> <<addtag 'gloryhole'>> You decide to simply go with the flow of the situation and quickly free your ?penis. You move towards the hole and slowly stick it through, awkwardly hugging the wall at the same time.?nl <<if settings.sph>> Shortly after showing your ?dick, you hear a surprised snicker coming from the other side. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Oh my, you're not really a shower then? Here, let me help you out with that.<</say>> You immediately feel a warm mouth envelop your ?penis. A tongue is deftly licking all over your soft shaft and you instantly feel blood flowing to harden it. This anonymous mouth quickly gets to sucking, which rapidly makes you stand full mast.?nl The person takes a short break as you feel them release your ?penis, probably to inspect if you're hard. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Wow. Not a grower either then... That's... disappointing... I was hoping to suck some big cock tonight, not this tiny thing.<</say>> The embarrassment of the situation somehow turns you on even more, making your ?dick twitch. You somehow feel the need to apologise for being this way. <<player>>I'm- I'm sorry that it's not bigger...<</player>> Suddenly they seem to quickly change their tone a bit. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Oh shit, don't apologise, that's even more pathetic. Here, can't believe I'm saying this but I'll suck you off, okay? Come to think of it, you're probably the easiest to deepthroat I've ever experienced...<</say>> They finish that thought by instantly taking your entire ?cock into their mouth and sucking it up and down a few times, stimulating you with their tongue. They pull their mouth away to say something degrading again while stroking you with two fingers. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Well, it's not really deepthroating since you can't even reach my throat at all...<</say>> Your cock twitches at their remarks. Why does this humiliation always turn you on like this so much... <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Ah, you like it when I call your cock tiny, don't you?<</say>> Great, now they know. Before you respond they immediately start sucking again. <<player>>M- Maybe...<</player>> Their expert blowjob skills takes you very close to your climax, though you painfully wonder to yourself if that could also be because of all the degrading remarks. There's not much cock-length to use so they're moving up and down the entire size rather quickly. <<player>>Ah! I'm getting c- close...<</player>> The person immediately stops sucking as they opt to switch to their two-finger stroking instead. Your cock is being stroked faster and faster. You once again hear their soft voice making fun of your manhood. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>I've never stroked a cock with only two fingers before, any more would be too much for you.<</say>> You're getting closer to the edge as you hear these remarks. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Come on, just like that. Tell me you have a pathetic tiny penis and I'll let you cum.<</say>> You really don't like the idea of them stopping the handjob so close to your finish so you decide to go along with it almost instantly. <<player>>Ah! I- I have a p- pathetic... t- tiny... penis... Ah- I'm cumming!<</player>> Speaking out loud what you were commanded to say instantly brings you over the edge as you enjoy your intense orgasm. You don't even pay any mind to their laughter as your ?penis cums through the hole. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Wow, that was actually kind of fun. Just a word of advice though: You might want to reconsider entering that stall again. Not everyone will be as lenient as me when you show that thing. Come to think of it, maybe you'd be better off on this side of the wall instead... Anyways, I'll be going now.<</say>> <<player>>Uhm, okay. Thanks...<</player>> <<else>> Shortly after showing your ?dick, you immediately feel your entire length being enveloped by a warm mouth. A tongue is deftly licking all over your soft shaft and you instantly feel blood flowing to harden it. This anonymous mouth quickly gets to sucking, which rapidly makes you stand full mast.?nl The person seems to be totally into it, sucking you rapidly and stroking the rest of your length at the same time. They take a quick break to switch to handjob only while you hear their soft moans as they're working your ?cock, they must really enjoy giving blowjobs. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>That's a great cock... Do you want to try fucking my face?<</say>> Without waiting for a response, you let your cock be pushed backwards. You see the soft lips appear through the hole as you look down, prepared to let you fuck their mouth. You immediately take the opportunity as you force your cock through her gaping mouth. They carefully hold it in place to let you pump in and out of their head with ease. <<img 'tavern/gloryhole/gloryhole_receiving.gif' 'ridge-border'>> You fuck their mouth for a good amount of time before they back off, signalling that they'll take over again. Their precise stroking and expert blowjob skills very quickly bring you close to the edge. <<player>>Ah! I'm getting c- close...<</player>> The person immediately stops sucking as they opt to switch to a handjob instead. Your cock is being stroked faster and faster. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Ah fuck yeah... Cum for me, baby.<</say>> You let out a long moan as you are brought over the edge, enjoying your intense orgasm. You retreat out of the hole right after you feel an affectionate kiss placed on the tip of your penis. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>That was great, thanks honey!<</say>> <</if>> You hear them open their stall door and quickly leave the bathroom. You sit down on the toilet, taking some time to recover from your intense orgasm. Did that just really happen?

The moment you turn around and look up, you see something poking out of the hole. <<img 'tavern/gloryhole/gloryhole_dick.gif' 'ridge-border'>> Yup. That's a cock. You're currently crouched down in a bathroom stall and looking up at a cock, mere inches from your face. After staring at it for some time your mind has a vivid moment of the whole thing finally making sense, the note on the doors, the hole in the wall. Yup. It's for cock.?nl You're staring for an awkward amount of time now, unsure what to do while the cock is just sitting there. The silence is finally broken by a voice, probably coming from the person that owns the cock. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Are you going to do help me out here or what?<</say>> Wow. The cock-owner is definitely impatient. But maybe it's fair since you're the one simply sitting here like a deer caught in lantern-lights.

You decide that maybe you should actually play into his ego. <<player>>Yeah...

Why don't you take it into your mouth while you're at it.<</say>> He wouldn't have to ask you twice, your mouth is already watering at the prospect and quickly lean forward even more to take the cock into your mouth, tongue swirling around the head of his penis. The taste is strangely pleasant as you feel the rod going deeper in your mouth.?nl You can't seem to get the entire cock into your mouth, only getting about halfway before your gag reflex kicks in. You quickly decide to make up for the rest by stroking the base. <<say 'Anonymous person'>>Ah fuck, that's great.

You decide to not spend too much time thinking about the situation as you still have to finish your cleaning. <<decision 'Finish cleaning the bathrooms' 'Tavern Work Event Bathroom Cleaning Finish'>> <</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Tavern'>> You're definitely tired by now but luckily it doesn't take too long for you to finish your task. You finally make your way out of the bathroom, clothes dirty as you start putting away the mop and bucket. <<eve>>Hey, ?newname. Nice work on the bathroom!<</eve>> <<player>>Thanks... That's definitely some work...<</player>> <<if hasTag('gloryhole')>> You still can't believe what happened inside there. Why is there even a gloryhole in the first place? As you're lost in thought you see her stare at you with a mischievous smile. <<eve>>I bet... You were in there for so long, weren't you?<</eve>> Unsure what she means exactly, her intent becomes immediately clear as she raises her eyebrows and rephrases her question. <<eve>>Did you have any <em>fun</em> while you were in there?<</eve>> Does she... Does she know that you went to the gloryhole? You immediately feel embarrassed and your cheeks start reddening. She doesn't seem to be awkward about it at all, strangely enough. <<eve>>Hehe, I thought so. Well, you don't have to tell me about it if you don't want to.<</eve>> She gives you a cute wink as she walks away to finish her work for the evening. Probably time for you to do the same. <</if>> <<decision 'Finish your shift' 'Tavern Work End'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Town square'>> You make your way through the town in the direction of the tavern. The town square already feels fully alive with the hustle and bustle of merchants peddling their goods out here. There's a bit of a crowd you have to make your way through before you can get closer to the tavern.?nl It's strange, you've never really experienced a mass of people while in your disguise like this. It almost feels like you are fitting in, like you are one of the common people. You really hope nobody notices that you have no idea what it's like to not be royalty.?nl After a short you have found your way to the destination. You take some time to stand in front of the tavern and look at it, delaying the moment you will have to go inside. The wooden sign sways softly above the entrance, showing ?tavern proudly in bold letters.?nl You take a deep breath before you step forward and over the tavern doors. <<decision 'Head inside' 'Tavern Velma Intro 2'>><</decision>>

<<setlocation 'Tavern'>> You set foot inside the tavern, taking a good look around. It seems to be very quiet, not many people visiting the place in the morning makes sense, you suppose. It's quite spacious inside, there's lots of different tables for people but with enough room to make your way around them. It would probably feel more cramped when the place is packed at night, probably.?nl You take some steps forward, very much not sure of yourself. Behind the bar, you notice a woman staring at you with a certain intrigue. She has an assertive air to her and she looks slightly aged. She nods at you and makes a hand wave suggesting for you to step up the bar. You immediately do as she says, probably best to report to the staff right away. <<velma>>Welcome to ?tavern. What can I do for you, dear?<</velma>> <<player>>Thanks... Uhm... I'm actually supposed to- uh- work here...<</player>> Great, what an intro... She looks you up and down with a curious expression. <<velma>>Ah, you're the one ?Sybille told me about... Wow, you're really new to this whole thing, aren't you dear?<</velma>> She must be ?Sybille's contact at the tavern. You immediately feel embarrassed that she notices how new you are to this, you're also not really sure what exactly ?Sybille has told her and what she is referring to. <<player>>Uhm, yes, I'm not really... used to this environment.<</player>> <<velma>>It's okay, dear. I was made aware of that and ?Sybille asked me to help you with that.<</velma>> Her wisened eyes look at your with a sincere concern, you can definitely sense something motherly here, like she just decided that she wants to take care of you are take you under her wing. You take a seat at the bar. <<velma>>My name is ?Velma. I'm the owner of this little place, I'm very glad to have you here.<</velma>> She's the owner? Somehow you didn't quite expect that but it makes sense, she already feels quite commanding in a gentle way. <<player>>Ah, thank you, ?Velma. I'm glad to have the opportunity to work here. My name is ?player.<</player>> You look at her with a smile that quickly fades the moment you realise your mistake from her slightly quizzical reaction on her face. <<velma>>Now, that doesn't sound quite right, does it? Why don't you try that again, dear.<</velma>> You slightly bow your head in shame. How can you instantly forget the first rule of working undercover... <<player>>Uhm- Yes, sorry! My name is ?newname, that's it, of course!<</player>> <<velma>>Much better. Try to practise that more often. You must be sure to not make a mistake like that again, if that happens with anyone else it could detrimental to your cause.<</velma>> <<player>>Yes, of course, sorry ?Velma.<</player>> <<velma>>As you'll be working for me it will also be important that you refer to me as ?madame or ?madameV, never just ?Velma. Is that clear?<</velma>> <<player>>Yes, Vel- ?madameV. Of course.<</player>> Wow, you are really doing great stuff here... How could this whole conversation have gone any worse? Luckily, it seems like she's not really mad at you at all, it's almost like she expected these little hiccups from you. <<velma>>Good. We're ready continue then. I suppose it's important for you that your schedule remains flexible. You can work here any day during the evening. I will pay you 3 gold pieces for every shift that you work and any tips you receive are for you to keep. Does this all sound agreeable to you?<</velma>> You're getting paid for this? Strangely enough you hadn't even thought about that, you don't really need the money at all but it would probably be bad for your cover if people find out you're not getting paid. <<player>>Uh- yes, ?madame.<</player>> <<velma>>Splendid, dear. I have been informed not to overwhelm you too much on your first day so I suppose we will leave it at that for now. Come back another day to start your first shift.<</velma>> <<player>>Sounds good, thank you for the explanation, ?madame. I will come back soon to start working.<</player>> You stand up and make your way back outside, that's all for today, you suppose. <<decision 'Head back to the castle' 'Tavern Velma Intro 3'>><</decision>>

<<increasetime 1 true>> <<setlocation 'Road'>> The sun, now higher in the sky, shines down on you as you walk this same path back with a reinvigorated spring in your step. The plan now actually starting to unfold feels very exciting. It doesn't take you long before you are back at the castle. <span class="notice good">You have now unlocked the town area that you can visit while being disguised.</span> <<decision 'Head to your bedroom and get changed' 'Bedroom'>> <<addcounter 'velma-tavern' 1>> <<startquest 'tavern-intro'>> <<include 'Outfit Standard'>> <</decision>>

As you head inside the tavern you see ?Velma standing in front of the bar talking with someone. It looks like she also works here, she's wearing a very cute barmaid outfit, <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>>sort of similar to what you're wearing, except it has a much shorter skirt than what you have.<<else>>with a very short skirt.<</if>> It looks very good on her.<<if hasTag('eve-waterfall')>> Something makes you feel like you've seen her before, but you're not sure when.<</if>>?nl ?Velma notices you and waves you over to join them. <<velma>>?newname, you're on time, very good. Are you ready for your first day of working?<</velma>> <<player>>Yes, I'm ready to work, ?madameV!<</player>> You feel kind of embarrassed about how your conversation with ?Velma went last time you were here so you have opted to try and make yourself come across more confident this time. <<velma>>Good. This is ?Eve, I will leave you in her hands as she'll be the one guiding you and show you the ropes today. It shouldn't be too busy this evening so I believe you will do fine, dear. I'll be in my office if you need me.<</velma>> You nod to her and ?Velma smiles to you as she leaves you two alone. You turn to face ?Eve to introduce yourself to her. <<if hasTag('eve-waterfall')>> It is at this moment that you recognise what you know her from. You have seen her before in the forest by the waterfall, she was taking a swim, naked, and you walked in on her. You instinctively look down towards her crotch, remembering the moment you saw her- No, you quickly snap yourself out of it and look at her, cheeks red with embarrassment. <<eve>>Oh wow! It's you! I remember seeing you at the waterfall! You're the new ?barworker? That's so exciting!<</eve>> She doesn't seem to feel any embarrassment about the face that you have already seen her naked, apparently. <<eve>>I just realised I never asked you your name that time, such bad manners!<</eve>> You sheepishly smile at her. <<player>>That's okay, I'm ?newname. I'm glad to meet you for real now.<</player>> <<else>> It looks like she beats you to it, though. <<eve>>Hi, I'm ?Eve! You're the new ?barworker? That's very exciting! What's your name?<</eve>> You sheepishly smile at her intense enthusiasm, it's quite endearing and makes you want to match her energy. <<player>>I'm ?newname. Glad to meet you!<</player>> <</if>> <<eve>>Me too! So tell me, ?newname, are you excited for your first day on the job?<</eve>> You're probably a bit more scared than excited, but you probably shouldn't keep saying that. <<player>>Yes, I can't wait to get started, I might be a bit out of my depth so I'm not sure what to do first...<</player>> <<eve>>That's okay! That's what I'm here for. We're going to start off easy, cleaning tankards, wiping tables, that sort of thing. Afterwards I'll show you how to make some drinks and how to serve the patrons in an orderly way. It's going to be great!<</eve>> <<decision 'Start working' 'Tavern Eve Intro 2'>><</decision>>

You spend a good few hours working together with ?Eve. She's a very gentle teacher as it must be very apparent that you have absolutely no experience doing anything close to this at all. Your royal self has never even had to do any chores yourself, let alone serve patrons at a tavern before. She doesn't seem to mind your lack of experience at all and with her guidance you very quickly pick up on how things work. <<eve>>And that's how to tap open a new barrel, simple as that! Don't worry though, if it's being difficult you can always ask me for help!<</eve>> She has shown you how to correctly pour beers and how to keep the bar clean. Luckily, it's not too busy at the tavern so you have all the time to let ?Eve teach you things. It's strange, not being used to doing service work yourself, you were scared you would absolutely hate it but it actually feels like the opposite. <<eve>>?newname! Can you bring these beers to the people over there?<</eve>> <<player>>On it!<</player>> While you bring the three tankards for the customers sitting by the window you realise you get into this satisfied feeling of flow. It feels like this is the first time that you're actually part of the common folk, even though you know that you aren't. It seems like the disguise is finally working for you now. You return some empty cups to the bar, you see ?Eve talking to a customer and ?Velma walks by, smiling at you. <<velma>>Look at you, you're doing great, dear. All used to being a ?barworker, I see.<</velma>> <<player>>Ah, thank you ?madame. ?Eve is a great teacher.<</player>> ?Velma nods to you with a proud smile and leaves towards her office again. You spend some time cleaning the bar when ?Eve walks up to you. <<eve>>I have to help a customer for a little while but I'll be back soon, you okay with holding the fort while I'm gone?<</eve>> You immediately feel some doubtfulness creep over you but somehow your new sense of security seems to bat the panick away. <<player>>Uh- Yes, of course, I'll be fine!<</player>> ?Eve gives you a happy smile and she walks off through a door in the back of the tavern of which you're not really sure where it leads. Next to the door, you see a man who was apparently waiting for her as she nods to him and he immediately follows behind her, closing the door behind them. Strange.?nl <<decision 'Continue working' 'Tavern Eve Intro 3'>><</decision>>

Only a little while later, you realise that telling ?Eve you'll be fine was actually a failed attempt at manifesting that. She's been gone for quite some time now and you are completely overwhelmed with the amount of people that you still have to serve. You bring new drinks to one table and some woman at another table starts shouting for you to hurry up. <<say 'Patron'>>Hey, you! ?Barworker! Where's my drink?! I've been waiting for so long now!<</say>> <<player>>Yes, sorry, madam. I'll be with you shortly!<</player>> You quickly run back to the bar but almost run into another customer that decided to stand up the exact moment you were about to dart behind his chair. Narrowly avoiding the collision you quickly start grabbing more tankards before you realise there are no clean ones anymore. You almost panic completely when at that moment, ?Eve returns.?nl She has a satisfied smile on her face as she fixes the shoulder strap of her blouse. Her hair is slightly disheveled. <<eve>>I'm back! Sorry, that took <em>way</em> longer than expected! How's it going here?<</eve>> You tell her what's going on and she immediately reads the panic in your eyes. She puts a comforting hand on your shoulders before she tells you how you're going to fix the situation together. Her calm solution immediately makes you feel a lot better and together you manage to bring everything back in order.?nl The rest of your shift goes by much more smoothly. Even though ?Eve still leaves you alone to see a customer quite a few more time, you think you're doing pretty well. After a few more hours, the last patrons start to leave the bar as you're cleaning up. ?Velma comes out of her office to come and speak to you. <<decision 'Speak to Velma' 'Tavern Eve Intro 4'>><<increasetime 1 true>><</decision>>

?Velma looks you up and down as you take a break from cleaning to talk to her. She looks over towards ?Eve, who then comes to join the two of you. <<velma>>Well?<</velma>> She has a very serious tone, you're not sure what she wants you to say to that question so you're slow to stammer something before you realise the question was not for you. <<eve>>Yes, <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>>s<</if>>he's good. Fitted in quickly, obviously new to the service work but that would be the same for any new ?barworker. I think it works!<</eve>> It's strange hearing ?Eve give ?Velma very intentful analysis about you while still keeping her enthusiasm. ?Velma gives a decisive nod and smiles at you, breaking the serious air. She swiftly dismisses ?Eve, who turns away to continue cleaning. <<velma>>Good, that settles it then. You have done well on your trial day, dear. I think this operation will work and I will let our mutual contact know.<</velma>> Wait so does that mean ?Eve knew you are working undercover and ?Velma asked her to test you? This day feels much more intense than it already but you are so happy you managed to get through it. <<player>>Thank you, ?madame. I won't disappoint you.<</player>> <<velma>>Glad to hear it, dear. Now, I also was informed about your target, spying on <<name andreas 'Councillor'>> will be difficult. He's an infrequent but specific customer, always rents a private room in the back of the tavern and he actually prefers to pick the staff that serves his table for the evening himself. You will have to become a more regular ?barworker first, this will mean that you'll have to spend some time working here now.<</velma>> Even though it's important information she's giving you, you also feel that not everything is landing after the long evening of working. <<velma>>I will speak to you when you are ready for the next part. For now, welcome to ?tavern and we're glad to have you on board. Now go home and get some rest, dear.<</velma>> You give ?Velma a nod and thank her for the opportunity before you leave the tavern, very tired after a long evening of working. It looks like ?Sybille's plan is slowly starting to work, now to first get good at this whole ?barworker thing. <<decision 'Leave the place' 'Town square'>><<completequest 'tavern-intro'>><<startquest 'tavern'>><</decision>>

For a time, you sit in peace with only the sounds of nature surrounding you. You feel as though you have all the time in the world and may leave whenever you wish. <<decision 'Return to the forest' 'Forest'>><</decision>> <</first>>

You approach the waterfall, admiring the rainbow of colors shimmering around the falling water. There is no one else around and you hear only the crashing of water and the singing of birds.?nl You take a seat on a mossy rock near the edge of the pool and take a moment to enjoy the silence. It's nice to be alone outside of the castle, where no one has any expectations of you and you can simply be yourself.?nl As you sit there quietly, a glimpse of teal catches your eye amidst the grasses growing around the pool. Is it the mushroom that you saw last time you were here? Leaning forward to get a better view, you see a yellow mushroom covered in bright teal spots that almost glow in contrast to the surrounding vegetation. This must be that other kind of mushroom ?Morgana told you about. Though you know you are alone, something in the sound of the rushing water seems to beckon you to taste the mushroom.... <<decision 'Pick the mushroom and eat it' 'Waterfall Mushroom Trip'>><</decision>> <<decision 'Resist the urge and simply enjoy the waterfall' 'Waterfall Meditation'>><</decision>>

You wisely decide not to touch the mushroom. ?Morgana told you not to pick this kind; for all you know, it could be a deadly poison.?nl You sit back on the mossy rock and continue to enjoy the sounds of the water and the birds. After a time, your eyes close, and you allow your cares to drift away.?nl When you open your eyes again, you're not sure how much time has passed, but you feel a sense of inner peace. <<decision 'Find your way back out of the forest' 'Meadow'>><</decision>>

Almost as if you are in a trance, you pluck the mushroom and swallow it. Bizarrely, it tastes the way that the earth smells after rain. It is a strange flavor, but not unpleasant.?nl For several minutes, you sit on the rock and contemplate why you just did that. It seems like a terrible idea to eat a strange mushroom you found in the forest, especially when ?Morgana told you not to collect this kind. However, you don't feel immediately ill...?nl As you're scanning your body for any signs of illness, you notice that the water in the waterfall seems to suddenly be moving...upwards rather than downwards? Not only that, but the rainbow colors in the water are now becoming physical, manifesting into pure whisps of color that separate into a hundred tiny dancing figures around the edge of the pool. Some of them separate from the dance and curl around your body. Each time they touch you, you feel a warm, pleasant tickling sensation. Yup, the mushroom is definitely affecting you. <<decision 'Lie down' 'Waterfall Mushroom Trip 2'>><</decision>>

<<effect charm on "rgba(0,255,127, 0.5)">> You feel an intense need to lie down. You settle into the grasses next to the pool, which are impossibly soft as they envelop your body. You feel as though you are sinking into the grass for hours, your body heavy as a boulder.?nl After what could have been days, you become aware that an inconceivably perfect voice has been singing to you from the waterfall. As you crane your neck to see, you spot something emerging from the waterfall.?nl A being made of roiling water walks toward you, surrounded by a rainbow light so bright you can barely stand to look at it. Even though you can't quite make out the features of this being, you know with certainty that they are the most beautiful creature you have ever seen in your life. <<say 'Spirit'>>I have seen you once before.<</say>> When they speak, their voice sounds like the rush of fast-moving water. <<player>>I- wha- who are you?<</player>> As you speak, you trip over your tongue, which feels like a heavy river stone. Though you try to enunciate, your words come out slurred. <<say 'Spirit'>>I am the inhabitant of this waterfall, a guardian of the forest.<</say>> <<player>>You are so beautiful.<</player>> The being makes a sound that is both laughter and the burbling of water in a stream. <<say 'Spirit'>>You are also beautiful. All creatures of the earth are beautiful. The trees shelter all those who walk below them, and the stream cools all feet that walk in it.<</say>> Before you can say anything in response, the grasses around your body grow taller and seem to embrace you around your maid outfit. <<player>>I- thank you. Why are you telling me this?<</player>> <<say 'Spirit'>>The wind carries glimpses of the future. You are beautiful and you will be beautiful.<</say>> The colors around the spirit grow brighter, so bright that you shut your eyes involuntarily against the glare... <<hyssop>>?player, is that you?<</hyssop>> <<decision 'Open your eyes' 'Hyssop Interrupts Trip'>><</decision>>

When you open your eyes, the water spirit is gone and you instead see ?Hyssop standing over you, a look of concern on their face. <<hyssop>>Oh my goodness, ?player, did you eat one of the yellow spotted mushrooms? Oh, no, I surely would have expected ?Morgana to warn you about them! She always performed so well in our herbalism classes, too...<</hyssop>> Groggily, you attempt to sit up, but when you try to move your limbs they feel impossibly heavy. Your mouth feels so dry. <<hyssop>>No, no ?player! Please stay lying down. You are not in any danger, but you are going to have an interesting next few hours! Allow me to bring you back to my cottage.<</hyssop>> <<decision 'Go with Hyssop to their cottage' 'Hyssop Trip Sits'>><</decision>>

You're not sure how ?Hyssop transports you back to their cottage, but for the next several minutes your body becomes weightless and you feel as though you must be flying. You are sure that this is how birds feel when they flit effortlessly between the trees. <<hyssop>>Ah, we are back at my home! I will set you down on this pile of cushions here. I'm sure you will be very comfortable!<</hyssop>> The feeling of weightlessness ends and you find yourself comfortably embraced in a pile of multicolored pillows that all smell faintly of dried herbs and flowers. Lying on your back, you watch in fascination as a multitude of flowers begins to grow out of the roof and down the walls of the hut.?nl ?Hyssop disappears from your vision briefly and returns with a cup hollowed from a tree branch and a bowl of plump blue berries. <<hyssop>>You must drink! This water is from the freshest brook nearby. It will also do you good to get some food in your belly. These berries are my favorite treat.<</hyssop>> With some effort, you are able to drink the water and eat some of the berries. Feeling more comfortable now in your body, you sink back into the pillows and watch the ceiling for a time as visions of colors, plants, and flowers growing and shrinking throughout the hut engulfs your consciousness.?nl <<decision 'Drift asleep' 'Hyssop Trip Sits 2'>><<effect charm off>><<increasetime 1 true>><</decision>>

I have already made two baskets!<</hyssop>> You see that there are indeed two completed baskets next to ?Hyssop. You sit up and clear your throat. <<player>>I must thank you, ?Hyssop, for kindly taking care of me during that, uh, experience. I did not know that would happen if I consumed that particular mushroom.<</player>> ?Hyssop smiles brightly. <<hyssop>>I am always happy to help, ?player. You might be surprised at how common an occurrence this is for me! People are always mixing up those two kinds of mushrooms. Perhaps I should put up some signs...<</hyssop>> You realize you have been gone from the castle now for quite a while. <<player>>I must be getting back to the castle. Thank you again, and I will be sure to bring you some mushrooms in the future as further thanks for your assistance.<</player>> ?Hyssop gives you a cheerful wave as you exit the hut. <<decision 'Make your way back out of the forest' 'Meadow'>><</decision>>

You approach the waterfall, feeling instantly calmed by the familiar sound of rushing water. As you settle down onto a mossy rock, you close your eyes for a moment and enjoy the sound of nearby birds and the wind in the leaves. It would be difficult to <i>not</i> feel at peace in this place, with no one else around... <<jack>>Oh, well, hello there!<</jack>> You startle and jump to your feet instinctively. Looking around, you see a large, burly man holding an axe over one shoulder. He is smiling at you through a bushy beard.?nl <<if hasTag ('lumberjack-peeped')>> With a jolt, you realize you recognize this man. He is the lumberjack you saw in ?Sybille's dungeon.

I don't believe we've met before. Do you work at the castle?<</jack>> Though he's still smiling, he's giving you a long look. Can he tell that you're wearing a disguise?

Please, continue enjoying the waterfall. Perhaps we will meet again sometime. Good day for now!<</jack>> He waves cheerfully and disappears into the trees.

You pause a moment, unsure how to respond. <<player>>That sounds nice, I suppose.<</player>> He laughs again good-naturedly at your confusion. <<jack>>Well, good sir, I can see I've taken up enough of your time. Please, continue enjoying the waterfall. Perhaps we will meet again sometime. Good day for now!<</jack>> He waves cheerfully and disappears into the trees. You stay a while longer by the waterfall, pondering what he could have possibly meant by <i>delicate statues</i>...

<<addtag 'eve-waterfall'>> As you're approaching the waterfall, you catch sight of someone through the trees. A woman seems to be bathing in the water. Her long pink hair floats in swirling patterns around her, and you catch glimpses of her breasts as she swims lazily around the pool.?nl Before you can do anything, she spots you through the trees and gives you a wave. <<eve>>Oh, hello! Don't be shy, I'm just enjoying a swim.<</eve>> You cautiously approach the waterfall, noticing how she makes no effort to cover herself in your presence. You feel suddenly embarrassed, as though you should look away. <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>> Is she so comfortable because you look like just another woman to her? <</if>> <<eve>>This place is so relaxing, don't you think?<</eve>> She looks at you expectantly, as though nothing is out of the ordinary. You try unsuccessfully not to stare at her breasts, which are currently on full display as she stands partly out of the water. <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>> You clear your throat and adjust your voice to be more feminine. <</if>> <<player>>Ah, yes, it is lovely, is it not. Do you - uh - often swim here?<</player>> She dips her head back in the water, her body arching gracefully. As she straightens again, droplets running down her chest, she gives you a smile. <<eve>>It's a secret pleasure of mine. I work in the tavern, you see, so I love coming here for a bit of quiet. Do you mind if I join you on the shore?<</eve>> <<player>>I- well, be my guest.<</player>> She starts to walk out of the pool towards you. Though you try not to look, you can't help but take in the curves of her body as she emerges from the water.?nl As she walks closer, you realize with shock that the space between her legs is not a vulva, as you expected, but a penis. It moves casually as she walks, water dripping off the tip. <<if settings.sph>> Even soft and unerect, she is much bigger than you have ever been. You realize with shame that even this beautiful woman has a larger penis than you. <</if>> <<eve>>It's so warm today. I think I'll dry in the sun.<</eve>> She sits down on the grass next you, and looks up with a smile. She pats the ground. <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>> You freeze for a moment, aware of how you currently look. Surely if you were to sit so close, she would realize that you are not just a simple village girl. She might even recognize you as the prince.?nl <<else>> You freeze for a moment, remembering your disguise. Surely if you were to sit so close, she might recognize who you are.?nl <</if>> She laughs good-naturedly. <<eve>>You're not used to nakedness, are you? It's quite natural. Try to relax.<</eve>> She seems insistent, and you have to admit there's something enticing about this whole experience. So you sit next to her, trying not to stare too openly at her naked body.?nl <<if hasOutfitTag('feminine')>> After you sit down, she gives you a long look. <<eve>>You remind me of myself, some time ago. Before I quite knew myself, or at least before I fully realized my own beauty.<</eve>> You look away from her, feeling uncomfortable under her gaze. <<player>>H-how do you mean?<</player>> Out of the corner of her eye, you see her smile in understanding. <<eve>>We all must come to know ourselves over time.<</eve>> You're not sure what she's referring to. How could you remind her of herself? You look out at the water and awkwardly change the subject. <<else>> As you sit down, she looks at you and smiles warmly. Luckily there seems to be no recognition in her eyes, and you sense that she has no idea you are the prince. <</if>> <<player>>Is it not cold? The water, I mean? You seem so comfortable.<</player>> She reclines lazily in the grass. The sunlight shines warmly on her body, her breasts and penis on full display. <<eve>>The water <i>is</i> cold, darling. That's what makes the sunlight feel so good.<</eve>> She sighs comfortably, closing her eyes. You sit in silence for some moments, wondering about this strange woman who is so secure in herself. Despite her chaste approach to nudity, or perhaps because of it, there is something arousing about her. Are you attracted to her body? Is there possibly some part of you that wants what she has??nl After some time passes, she opens her eyes and smiles at you. <<eve>>Well, I believe I'm dry. It's been lovely chatting. Perhaps I'll see you in the tavern sometime.<</eve>> She gives you a wink and pulls a delicate dress from the grass, slipping it over her head in one swift movement. <<eve>>My name is ?Eve, by the way.<</eve>> As she turns away, you manage a short farewell through your bewilderment. She walks lightly into the forest, leaving you by the waterfall with only your thoughts as company.?nl You stay a few moments more, pondering this strange interaction before you too head back into the forest. <<decision 'Leave the waterfall' 'Forest'>><</decision>>
