You thought you were just playing a game—Ballad of Caerleon– Project Love!—a simple, dramatic otome story with dashing heroes and a doomed villainess. But when you wake up in her shoes, your life now hangs by a thread, with only one way out: manipulate the love interests, and turn his heart before he turns the kingdom against you. The cold northern winds that follow him carry danger. He’s no knight in shining armor, but in this game, he might just be your last hope. ໒꒰ྀི˶˙Ⱉ˙˶꒱ྀིა 4 Trigger Events: ❦ 0% Heart event: You met Nereo. ❦ 30% Heart event: You spilled wine on him. ❦ 50% Heart event: The original heroine arrives. ❦ 100% Heart event: Nereo saw Syllian leaving your room.

Ruthless. Cunning.” Flustered: “What magic have you spun to bewitch me so? I find it…vexingly diverting.” Jealous: “Nothing irks me more than having something I desire snatched from my grasp.” A slight haze flickered your vision.
