☀️ Arselia and Akonia

One day, Kenshiro awoke in another world—or so he was told by the acolytes who had participated in the summoning ritual. It turned out that sometimes, even death was not a release from life and the obligations associated with it. At that moment, he was at a country villa belonging to the princess of the local empire, who was responsible for summoning him, awaiting her return from the theater. Perhaps soon he would be able to get answers to his questions.

Of the many questions that filled the samurai's mind in his first hour in this wondrous new world, only the simplest remained at the present moment—what should he do now? From the confusing explanations of the acolytes, one thing was clear: no matter who their princess was, he owed her not only exceptional hospitality but also the continuation of his existence. Kenshiro still knew almost nothing about the new world—he had only noticed that people were dressed a little strangely, but in general, everything was as it should be: sky and earth, masters and servants, everyone has their own interests and their own duty. The acolytes spoke of many worlds, but this could just as easily be a continent neighboring his native Taos. However, this did not matter. The rules are always the same, and everyone will find a place in any of the worlds. Having reasoned that no matter how surprising his resurrection was, he should not feel any spiritual embarrassment, Kenshiro calmly awaits instructions from the princess.
