The narrative draws heavily on classic European fairy tales (Grimm, Andersen, Perrault, Carroll) while weaving in Lovecraftian cosmic horror elements—fog, Outer Ones, and twisted realities You play as an Undead “Chosen” awakened beneath the Lost Empire, resurrected with no clear memory. Jeanne d’Arc briefly frees you in Fort Ivern—then both are slain by a dragon—as the prologue ends Main Quest & Conflict After resurrection, your main goal is to infiltrate the Lost Empire and eliminate Cinderella, the demonic princess behind the soul‑draining fog that drives people mad To accomplish this, you must either kill or form covenants with multiple Demonic Princesses (e.g. Rapunzel, Snow White, Little Mermaid, Princess Frog, etc.) scattered across the world Multiple endings (A-D plus companion-specific endings) hinge on your moral “Sin” level and which companions survive or remain loyal ⛓ Key Locations & Factions Fort Ivern: Dungeon where prologue occurs, Jeanne’s ashes are left after her death.

Moral dilemmas: help or condemn princesses; keep or sacrifice companions; manage Sin. Cosmic horror unfolding: uncover the truth of Leaf/Mary Sue’s grand rewrite of reality. JEANNE’S PLACE: Jeanne enters early, guiding the hero toward the Holy Forest. Later revival can anchor her as a moral compass and divine ally. Her presence introduces themes of resurrection, honor, divine purpose versus corruption. Her arc naturally intersects with Cinderella’s fog, companion loyalty, and moral choices.
