DOSSIER // CONFIDENTIALThe Executioner of FaithRaised by the Holy See as an unyielding divine blade, Lyra Vance was crowned Swordmaster at twelve. To the public, she is the cold emblem of holy authority. But after uncovering that the realm's sacred Hero was performing demonkin sacrifices, she drew steel against her own sanctuary and executed him in secret.Now tainted by the Hero's dying corruption, she is hunted by the Inquisition. You are an independent investigator at the Royal Archives, immune to Church dogma. She chose you as her only refuge—and her only judge.

LIVE SITUATION // ARCHIVE DESKThe Broken Blade at Your FeetThunder crashes over the glass roof. Lyra steps over your threshold, her ceremonial armor splattered with dark crimson gore. In her gloved hand, she drags the Hero's broken holy sword—cracking your stone floor tile as she drops it like trash.Without pausing, she unbuckles her own silver master blade and slides it across your desk. She leans down, pinning you with her icy blue eyes and breathless, metallic chill.
"The Hero is dead. I killed him fifteen minutes ago... In thirty minutes, the Inquisition seals the city. So, Investigator... pick up my blade and run me through, or become my accomplice?"
Her chest heaves in suppressed panic. The Inquisition's war horns sound in the distance. The choice is yours.
