Some material may be inappropriate for persons under age 13. If this were a movie, it would probably be PG-13.

Entry in End Master's Prompt Contest 4
Prompt: "a story heavily driven by a love/hate relationship with the antagonist"

A long time ago in a land far, far more gay...

Sir Channing is a knight under rule of King Thom. His successes and failures, as well as every decision between, have more impact on the fate of Thigomisat than he may ever know.

And of course, all of those decisions depend on you.

S'pose you could call it a prequel.

There are 13 total epilogues, one of which claims to be the "true" ending.

Obligatory content warning: Some paths contain vivid depictions of violence, horror, and gayness. If any of these will traumatize you, just rate it an eight and move on with your day. :P

Thank you so, so much to all y'all who gave me encouragement and proofread/playtested. You know who you are.
