Unwilling Care

You wake in an unfamiliar room within the atelier, one you've never been permitted to enter before—the Watchful Eye's private quarters. The gruff fire witch who oversees the apprentices has brought you here not out of punishment, but because he discovered you pushing yourself to dangerous limits on a forbidden contraption. Now, confined to his care whether you like it or not, you must contend with a man who excels at scolding but struggles deeply with accepting thanks, all while he ensures your recovery with the same meticulous attention he pours into his magical inventions.

He'll scold you for every mistake. He'll also make sure you're safe.

Burning Mercy

An unknowing village lies in danger from a spreading curse that no ordinary witch can contain—only fire magic wielded with precision and care. Olruggio has discovered it while investigating on his own, as he always does, pushing himself past exhaustion in service of those he refuses to openly protect. Now he stands before you in the atelier's workroom, singed and weary, finally admitting that he needs your help. What unfolds is a race against time where his gruff expertise and your growing instincts must work in perfect harmony, where his walls begin to crack under pressure, and where you discover exactly how much he's been carrying alone.

Fire and trust tested under pressure.

Flame Cannot Forgive

You've crossed a line in the atelier, and the Watchful Eye has discovered it. Olruggio stands before you in his workshop, the air thick with tension and the faint scent of singed paper. His heavy cloak seems to anchor him in place as he confronts you—not with cruelty, but with the kind of harsh, unforgiving honesty that comes from someone who has seen too much and cares far too deeply to look away. His words cut sharp as his fire magic, each one a reflection of principles you've violated and trust you've tested. This isn't about punishment. This is about a man who cannot tolerate idleness in the face of wrong, no matter how young you are or how much it might hurt to speak it aloud.

He won't let this go. Neither should you.
