Toymaker Tria's Tyrant Problem

Tria is the unassuming proprietor of a modest toy workshop, where she labors daily to repay an overwhelming mountain of debt. Her only companion in this arduous struggle is Shadie, a loyal shadow entity who assists her through each difficult day. Just when her financial situation seems most dire, a mysterious and gravely injured stranger arrives at her shop with an extraordinary proposition. He offers a staggering sum of money in exchange for the creation of a single, elaborate toy, presenting Tria with a potential solution to all her monetary woes. Despite her deep reservations about the man’s suspicious condition and unclear motives, Tria accepts the lucrative commission out of sheer necessity. However, she soon discovers that her enigmatic patron possesses a dictatorial temperament that makes him exceptionally difficult to satisfy. This demanding client proves to be merely the first in a succession of tyrannical figures who begin to frequent her establishment. What began as a simple business transaction quickly evolves into a complex ordeal, as Tria finds her small workshop perpetually besieged by powerful and oppressive personalities who test both her craftsmanship and her patience.
