■Synopsis■

For as long as you can remember, strange things have happened to you—inexplicable moments that might make you question your sanity, if they weren’t so fleeting and harmless. Never in your wildest dreams did you think they might point to a secret from your past that upends everything you take for granted in life and the very nature of reality itself. After all, magic isn’t real… is it?

When a mysterious letter arrives that seems to bequeath you ownership of a lavish estate, the temptation to find out more about your true origins lures you into a world more spellbinding than anything you imagined possible. Even with three handsome and dutiful butlers eager to satisfy your every want and need, there may yet be threats even a promising mage can’t overcome.

In a world of magic and illusion, how can you ever truly know which charming faces to trust?

■Characters■

Iveas — The Tenacious Protector

A man whose heart is equal in size to his burly arms, Iveas hails from a long line of butlers who have served your family for generations. Eager to prove himself worthy of such a legacy, there’s never a dull moment when he’s around, so determined is he to impress you with his latest trick. Unlike his two colleagues, Iveas prefers to invest his powers in a pair of bracelets, allowing him to pummel any foe into submission. Could he be the gallant knight to your damsel in distress?

Deres — Your Graceful Spellcaster

Proving that youth is no impediment to diligence, the least experienced resident of your estate goes about his duties with quiet confidence. Deres may have been handpicked by your father, but there are subtle indications that his devotion to you may eclipse even that bond. Wielding his magic wand with poise and elegance, his grace in battle is belied by a ferocious sense of loyalty all the same. Could his taciturn nature be concealing secrets that test your rapport?

Amel — Your Steadfast Guardian

He may not be much older than yourself, but having served your father the longest, Amel brings much-needed patience and experience to the halls of your estate. Generally one step ahead of everyone else, he prides himself on anticipating your needs, and would resort to any measures in order to keep you safe. With decorum so drummed into him by now, he may strike others as stuffy and straight-laced, but could there be more to his interest in you than professional duty?
