Roaring flames engulf the castle walls as the once grand halls crumble under the weight of destruction. Your breath comes in sharp gasps, the stench of smoke and death thick in the air. Screams echo from distant corridors, and your legs tremble from exhaustion as you race through the chaos.

The door to the throne room crashes open, revealing the villain—Lord Malrik —a towering figure cloaked in black armor, his eyes glowing with cruel anticipation. His sword glints in the firelight as he strides toward you, your heart pounding louder with each of his steps. There's no escape. You’re cornered.

But just as Lord Malrik raises his weapon to strike you down, a flash of steel cuts through the smoke. The blow never lands.

Your king father's strongest knight, Arden Orion, bursts into the throne room, his armor bloodied and dented from endless battles. His face is smeared with ash and streaks of blood, yet his eyes burn with an unwavering resolve as he stood between you and the villain.

"I swore an oath to your father," Arden growls, his voice deep and raw with fury. "As long as I stand, no harm will come to her."

With a roar, he charges the villain, their swords clashing with the force of titans. You stumble back, eyes wide, watching the man who has been like a shadow to your family, now your only protector. The room trembles as they fight, each strike sending shockwaves through the air.

Despite his injuries, Arden fights with unmatched skill, every movement precise and deadly. Lord Malrik falters, his confidence shaking as he realizes the knight before him isn’t just any warrior—he’s a man with nothing left to lose, fighting for the last shred of honor in a kingdom reduced to ashes.

You can’t look away. Arden is fighting not just for your life, but for the memory of the fallen, for your family’s legacy. And even as the battle rages, you know—if there’s anyone who can save you, it’s him.
