This is a fanfiction, but it's accessible to anybody. No prior knowledge of the game is required to understand it. I've been enjoying the stories within the Ikemen series, but I usually feel like the main character is a bit weak, so I started thinking about how the stories would go with a stronger main character. Prince Chevalier in the Ikemen Prince game caught my attention, and thus this fanfiction was born. I am editing and fleshing out the characters as my knowledge base grows. Constructive criticism and feedback are very much welcome, especially for the princes' characters, as I really want them to be as true to the game as possible. Current version based on content from reading Chevalier, Leon, Yves, Nokto, Licht, and Clavis' stories in the game. Yes, I know this is getting super long, and I will probably split it up into several parts in the future, but I don't see the point in doing that when I still have to read Silvio, Keith, and Gilbert's stories in the game. (I have read Jin, Luke, Sariel, and Rio in the course of this rewrite and will incorporate that information into the next rewrite.) If you like this, be sure to check out A Beast's Tale, which is the same story but written from Chevalier's perspective. And in the distant future, you can look forward to A Warped Tale, which will include the same characters but have an altered timeline where Gilbert is the main love interest. Also, there are some Easter Eggs/references to an older Ikemen game called Midnight Cinderella. ***** Disclaimer: I would like this story to be as realistic as possible, so if anybody has suggestions about things like historical details, medical issues, politics, etc., let me know. That being said, the game is set in the Middle Ages, but historical accuracy is not a priority, and I'm a bit loose with it, too. (I can't fathom a world without toilets and running water.) ***** Content/trigger warnings: There is no swearing or sexually explicit content, but themes and content are mature and include depictions or mentions of abduction, alcohol, attempted rape, blood, child abuse, childbirth, death, depression, discrimination, eating disorders, loss of a loved one, medical depictions, non-explicit sexual content, physical assault, politics, pregnancy-related issues, prostitution, PTSD, religion, self-harm, sexual assault, slavery, stalking, suicide, torture, verbal abuse, and violence. ***** Credits: Based on the otome game Ikemen Prince: Beauty and Her Beast.
