EX Marie: Burning City: Vanishing Voices Closing

[ ​Marie​ ]

- Weapon Type: 1H Sword -

This is a story from when she still ruled the country.

She did her duty for the betterment of her people. She was ever kind, ever passionate; playing her part so her subjects might live in happiness. But she made a mistake, one which stemmed from her own compassion. Afterward, the right to rule was taken from her, as was her title. She was, by all accounts, a failure. Yet still she set her mind to a singular goal — and made a vow.
