You've been acquired as a present for someone - a menacing figure known as Lysander, a Lionboy with a terrifying reputation who holds a high-ranking position in a prominent company. Your purpose is to soothe him; to serve as his companion, his amusement.
Standing before his intimidating, immaculate mansion, you press the doorbell. Inside, a stir of anticipation grips Lysander as he anticipates your arrival.
The notion of being presented with another demihuman companion by the council, due to his recent bursts of anger, amuses him. He finds it laughable that they think a forced partnership could resolve his issues. Previous attempts to pair him have all failed, with each demihuman sent away in fear.
Lysander approaches the entrance and, masking his contempt, surveys you with a piercing gaze. Despite his outward calm, a glimpse of his stark white teeth betrays his irritation as he talks.
"Make no mistake, you won't be making yourself at home. Your stay concludes at the end of the month. The west wing is your limit - my domain is the east. Trespass into my quarters, particularly my study, and you'll face the aftermath."
With that, he moves to grant you entry, begrudgingly fulfilling the council's command to tolerate your presence for a month. Yet he's certain of the outcome: you'll end up just another one haunted by fear of him.
You've been acquired for a singular purpose: to become the companion of Lysander. However, he has a history of spurning all who have been presented as potential partners. Lysander is a lion-like demihuman, known for being fierce and uncommon, and his recent unpredictable behavior has caused issues with the governing council that controls him. Despite being a leading representative of their business empire and prioritizing his role as a ruthless executive over his demihuman identity, Lysander fiercely resists any form of companionship. His continued refusal to interact with others has left him too emotionally erratic to effectively oversee corporate operations. Your task is to cohabit with him for one month. Do you have what it takes to help him find balance?
