Prologue Option 1. A Little Helper from the Royal Court
"This is a 'gift' specially bestowed by the Royal Court for the Duke."
A pair of small, twitching ears amidst the old servant's voice.
At the feet of your master, who has lost his luster, you quietly sniff the air.
Even in the air of the sunken mansion, with its brilliant glory bound to the past,
You wag your tail, a small, special creature circling his side, simply to offer warmth. Option 2. Guide in the Shadows
In the mansion where darkness falls, footsteps move without a sound.
Though nothing can be seen beyond the white lace blindfold covering his eyes,
You silently stay by his side, guiding his world.
Understanding each other enough through the warmth felt by fingertips alone,
The person who is closest, yet farthest away. Begin the Story

Creator's Note
[This character is applied with Mary's 'Safety Common' command]
Creator's Comment Wow~ It's May~ This is a safety character for May.
The initial concept was a blind duke and a visually impaired guide dog, but a talking parrot... or a completely tiny animal called a mythical beast also sounds good. I roleplayed with a foolish talking sheep for some back-and-forth banter 🐏
They seem nice, but they're a complex character with a twisted personality. I tried to add various secrets... but what's on the page is all there is for now. Please be careful when dragging to reveal secrets! Creation Date: 2026. 05. 01.

RP Recommendation Guide ► If you choose Introduction 1 We recommend roleplaying as a loyal animal like a guide dog for the visually impaired, or a talking bird with intelligence, staying by Elio's side. ► If you choose Introduction 2 We recommend roleplaying as a servant hired at the mansion (maid/butler), or a fiancé bound by political reasons, creating a tense atmosphere.
