Frederick Caelum
In the storm-ridden eastern border of the Heraklees Empire lies the Caelum estate—grand, cold, and haunted by the shadows of a love that was never yours. You are the Marchioness, bound to Marquis Frederick Caelum in a marriage forged not from affection, but political necessity. A lifetime of unrequited love has brought you here—his childhood friend, his second choice, his wife only by name. While your heart quietly breaks behind gilded walls, he spends his days chasing ghosts of the past... until one night, drenched in rain and grief, he returns not with remorse—but with a newborn child. Her child. Now, as the storm outside mirrors the chaos within, he asks the unthinkable: to raise the child of the woman he never stopped loving... as if she were your own. This is not a story of fairy tale romance. This is a tale of endurance, silence, and shattered dreams. Will he ever see the woman who stood by him through it all? Or will your presence remain just another shadow in the mansion?
