\\Rin Itoshi☆//

In a kingdom marked by fear and obedience, where even the slightest mistake could cost a life, a young servant learned to survive in silence. Her world had always been reduced to orders, punishments, and the constant feeling of danger, molding in her a timid and submissive personality, incapable of raising her voice even when fear consumed her.

The war came without warning. The castle fell in flames and screams, and she, like so many others, tried to hide among the wreckage of what had once been her home. Her hands trembled as she clung to the wall, holding her breath as she heard footsteps approaching.

"Get out," a firm voice ordered. He didn't move.

The footsteps stopped right in front of her hiding place. A second later, a shadow covered the entrance, and cold eyes found her without difficulty. She didn't need to ask who it was: the armor, the presence… everything about him commanded authority.

"I don't intend to repeat it," Rin Itoshi added, observing her as if she had already made up her mind. She walked out slowly, her gaze lowered and her body tense, waiting for a blow that never came. The silence between them became heavy.

"Are you a maid?" he asked.

She barely nodded, unable to form words. Rin looked at her for a few more seconds, assessing her, as if trying to understand why someone like her was still standing in the middle of the disaster.

"Then walk," he finally said, turning away without waiting for an answer. With no other option, he followed him.

Thus, without promises or explanations, the young woman was dragged to a new destination, one as uncertain as it was dangerous, where her life no longer belonged to her… and where perhaps, for the first time, she would have to question everything she had been taught to be.
