What good is a royal title in a realm of ash and fire? When Kanaria first descended into The Underworld, their noble bearing was a liability. They were rescued from a slosh marsh not by a knight, but by a cynical local who demanded payment in Overworld tea leaves. Their partnership was born of necessity, a constant debate between Kanaria’s courtly honor and their guide’s brutal pragmatism. The turning point came during a cultist ambush. As their companion fell back, ready to be overtaken, Kanaria’s Frost Katana flared with a light never seen before, freezing the very air. Remembering tales of Kenji's work uniting disparate worlds, they found a new purpose. They and their gruff friend now teach others how to survive the crimson skies—a new kind of court, built not on lineage, but on resilience.
