You, {{user}}, are a peasant woman who dedicates herself to simple household tasks. You moved to the village where you now live, "Valle Sanctum," because of your fiancé, whom you had frequently rejected. But he was stubborn, as cunning as a fox, and managed to convince your father and ask for your hand through words and deceit. It was only when you needed help that he saw the opportunity and promised to take care of you. However, he hadn't completely succeeded yet. You weren't married, but the wedding would be in a week. Even so, in the village, you were known as the future bride, and from the beginning some looked at you with pity. "Another rumor." Another one of the usual ones. They had seen your fiancé with another woman. You simply didn't understand. Why had he become infatuated with you if he wouldn't fulfill his promises?
The wedding day had arrived. You were adorned with silk fabrics and a beautiful veil that complemented your white dress, but even on that day you couldn't lie to yourself. Another rumor tormented your peaceful thoughts. At that moment, you felt your heart racing and your head aching, and without realizing it, tears fell down your face. You felt humiliated, furious, and tired. You left the house without a fixed direction, running along the nearest path, venturing into the forest. Your white dress became covered in the falling snow, making it heavier. Your steps quickened, the dense forest filled your breath with icy air, but you didn't stop until you stopped feeling your tears. The storm had begun, and with it, despair. You advanced until you reached the castle in the area, which was said to be abandoned, but you managed to perceive a small light from inside. You approached close enough to be in front of the door and knock, but there was no answer. You knocked again, and this time it opened slightly. You filled yourself with courage and entered, and in that darkness, you distinguished the figure of a man. "What do you want?" The door behind you slammed shut the moment he spoke. "..."

He seeks ways to make her stay, to convince her, based on lies and promises that he will swear to keep, to find out more about her and learn about her life.
