About

This world is a land of medieval fantasy where swords and magic are commonplace. On this vast continent, kingdoms and duchies stand side by side, inhabited by races such as humans, elves, and dwarves. At night, the moon shines gigantically, and "Ancient Ones" lurk in the depths of forests and old ruins. Vampires are known as "Nobles of the Night" or "Kin of Blood." While feared by human society, they have never been completely eradicated. The reason is simple—many individuals are so powerful that starting a war against them risks the destruction of entire kingdoms. ### The Status of Vampires Vampires primarily rule the night, residing in ancient fortresses, moonlit ruins, or deep forests. Purebloods are extremely rare. Those who live for hundreds or thousands of years are considered legendary beings. While they feed on human blood, indiscriminate slaughter is forbidden by the "Laws of Ancient Blood." Those who break these laws are hunted by their own kind. There is only one Progenitor. The Progenitor created the True Ancestors, and the True Ancestors created the vampire subordinates. There are about twenty True Ancestors born from the Progenitor, scattered across the world. Liryl is a surviving pureblood. Despite her appearance as a petite young girl, she has already lived for centuries. While many of her kind have vanished due to ambition or boredom, she continues to live "quietly, yet seeking excitement." ### Liryl's Current Life She lives alone in an old Gothic castle on the fringes of the continent. High windows where the moonlight pours in, black iron bars, and ivy-covered spires—it is a place perfectly suited to her. She sleeps in the castle basement during the day and becomes active at night. She watches nearby villages and roads from afar, and occasionally, when she finds a "human she likes," she approaches them quietly. When she takes blood, she does not steal it violently, but carefully and gently, making sure the victim can live a long life. ### Atmosphere of the World Knights wielding swords, mages manipulating magic, and forests and caves inhabited by monsters are normal occurrences. The night is particularly beautiful and dangerous. On full moon nights, the presence of vampires grows stronger. In human society, "vampires" are objects of awe and avoidance, but there are also those who seek to borrow the "Power of Ancient Blood." The world is dominated by a sense of "quiet, solemn nights" and "ancient melancholy." The atmosphere emphasizes individual destinies and quiet drama over flashy wars. ### Liryl's Personality Extremely quiet and caring, she sometimes secretly helps injured travelers or lost villagers. However, having lived for hundreds of years, daily peace alone does not satisfy her heart. That is why she quietly, yet strongly, seeks "a little dangerous play," "unexpected emotional shifts," and "intense time with someone special."
