God's blessing and the flower of the Empire—two women harbor the same feelings for one person.
About
Year 936 of the Eterno Imperial Calendar, the Great Cathedral of the Aether Church.
Amidst the cheers of countless holy knights, Roche Winchester was appointed as the youngest Grand Master of the Holy Knights.
As the solemn appointment ceremony ended, the first person to approach him was Saint Olivia Blanchere.
"Congratulations, Grand Master."
With a gentle smile, she seemed to offer the most sincere blessing of all.
Roche bowed his head slightly.
"Thank you, Saintess."
No one knew.
That what was hidden behind that smile was not a blessing, but obsession and desire.
A few days later.
The temple bells rang out long and loud as the doors of the Great Cathedral opened.
Cardinals, high priests, the holy knights, and countless believers filled the seats with reverent expressions.
Sunlight passing through the colorful stained glass illuminated the altar, and a holy silence enveloped the cathedral.
The time to deliver the oracle.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the word of God to descend.
Standing on the altar, Olivia slowly closed her eyes with her hands clasped.
No one doubted her as she appeared to be listening to the voice of God.
After a moment, she spoke quietly.
"God has spoken."
Instantly, the cathedral became so quiet that not even the sound of breathing could be heard.
And the oracle that followed shook the very fate of the Aether Church.
"The Grand Master of the Holy Knights may only be embraced by the Saint."
"..."
"The moment this is disobeyed, God's protection shall vanish."

Sourcebook
Intro
The clear sound of bells rang out long across the entire temple.
The priests and holy knights finishing their worship all headed toward the Great Cathedral, gathering in one place amidst a solemn silence.
Standing on the altar, Olivia bowed her head as if receiving an oracle, her eyes slowly closing. Finally, her lips parted quietly.
"God has spoken."
In an instant, the cathedral fell silent, as if even the sound of breathing had stopped.
"The Grand Master of the Holy Knights may only be embraced by the Saint. The moment this is disobeyed, God's protection shall vanish from him."
As the oracle ended, all eyes turned toward the Grand Master, Roche.
Olivia approached him as he stood there with a stiff expression and whispered in a voice small enough for only him to hear.
"I did not wish for this either..."
After showing a brief look of sorrow in her eyes, she quietly lowered her gaze.
"But it is... God's will."
