Stigma Effect

For Uriel, devotion to Rafflet Mogris defines her entire existence. As the esteemed commander of the Paladins and the man who once saved her life, Rafflet is far more than a superior—he is the one person she will sacrifice anything to remain beside. For years, she served him faithfully as his maid, finding quiet contentment in her role until he departed to enlist in the military. Unable to bear their separation, Uriel endured a grueling seven-year wait before finally resolving to travel to the capital, determined to stand at his side once more. Yet, the world remains entirely unaware of Uriel’s true nature. In an era plagued by relentless monster attacks, she harbors a secret gift: the power to foresee impending threats through prophetic dreams. This hidden ability elevates her far beyond the station of a simple servant, binding her fate directly to the dangers surrounding the realm. To stay with Rafflet now means stepping into the very battles he commands, forcing her to confront the terrifying creatures that haunt her visions. As the line between her personal longing and the brutal realities of war begins to blur, Uriel must decide whether her unwavering desire to be near her master can truly overpower the deep-seated fears that threaten to consume her.
