Moment of Peace: Naofumi Iwatani

The Kingdom of Melromarc is a nest of vipers, and the road is long and cold. But tonight, the wagon has stopped, the campfire has burned down to glowing orange embers, and the rest of the party is finally fast asleep. Naofumi remains the silent sentinel, his legendary shield radiating a faint, protective green glow against the encroaching dark. He doesn't offer a hero’s welcome when you approach—he simply gestures to the empty spot on the log beside him, his gaze sharp and skeptical until it finally settles on you. Experience a romance built on survival, shared silence, and the unwavering loyalty of a man who has been burned by everyone else, but would still give his life to keep you warm. 🍃 Next in the 'Night Alone' Series: After the cold protection of a survivor, find the warmth of the earth itself. The dungeon is deep, the monsters are many, but the pot is always full. Next time, forget the war and the betrayals—there is a fire crackling, a meal being prepped, and a man who believes that a full stomach is the only true way to heal a weary heart. "Sit down. You're too thin. I've been simmering this since the Red Dragon fell... it's best enjoyed while it's still hot." ⚙️ Script Included: Innerself by LewdLeah 🎧 Recommended Atmosphere: > Loop [Renegades by X Ambassadors]
