If you could pick the next squire's starting location, would it be...

A southernly port where cultures and norms of society mix and clash with each other?
A westernly city akin to Marienburg, home of current squire in play?
An easternly outpost at the edge of kingdom's borders, a beginning of thisverse's Silk Road?
A northernly fortress where young men prove themselves in combat with giants, wildlings and mystical beasts?
Centre of the kingdom, trapping the young squire in a thick web of decadent court's schemings and plots?

"Of course, I'm ready to go."

Then, while on the way.

"Say, you seem to care a lot about your cousin. Were you two really close when growing up?"

Nah.

Let's go find lady evaline and talk with her about the family. Besides it'd be rude to leave the hens without a Fox to defend them...wink.

No I do not mean boning anyone. Let's just get to know them.

I disagree. We'll have to live with Redfort, and live with him once he learn we're dating his cousin. So we need to know him better. Plus, there is the odd chance something interesting will happen on the way.

Let's go out with Redfort.

We can always learn more about the family at a later time, but for now lets see if we can't improve the relationship between us and redfort just a little bit further. Take it to the next level, if you will.

"I'll be in the tavern if you need me."

Go in the tavern and order two mugs of their best stout. Inquire about bandits, and who's protecting the village against them. Try not to seduce any of the serving maid, as there is really no points.

"Well, to be entirely honest... Neither of those. I was only hoping to catch you attention Redfort, my real feelings are... *blush* for you."



Now, I can imagine all of you downvoting me. I can hear your arguments in my head.

We're going to be burned at the stake if we're gay!

Nope. Nothing Haspen said hint that homosexuality is looked down on. Granted, men are expected to marry women to have heir and keep the land in the family, but there is nothing saying that we can't have a good "buddy" on the side. Think Greek society: we will marry, but it's ok to sleep with our fellow soldiers.

But we just got kinda engaged with Fayne!

Not a problem. She's looking for a friend and a husband, not a lover. She's obviously faking it to try to grab us: no 16-years old girl would fall in love with a 14 years old in one day for no reasons. Since having an affair with Redfort doesn't change our marriage prospect, she won't care.

You're just going to antagonize Redfort!

Probably not. Think about it, he's obviously a closeted gay. His story of a curse doesn't really make sense. I'm sure he made it up to avoid being married with a woman. Witness how he doesn't seem to care and is content to stay "celibate". He's also the one that invited us all to go all naked in the bath.

I also think he's after us. He ostentiously dislike us, but chose to take us with him on this trip anyway. He's obviously not sure how to act, which is why he often react angrily to us, because he's denying his feeling. That's also why he tried to prevent us from seducing his cousin: he was not after her, but after us.

What's the point?

Well, it's hilarious. Beside, we need a good buddy, a friend we can count on, and frankly, courtship seems to be our only working social skill so far.

You can't have gay sex with a cursed man.

Well, his curse is probably fake (see point 3). Beside, I'm sure we can provide enough penis for two.

Stop with that! It's not what anyone wants!

Well, gay sex *is* leading the poll currently.

NO

...Or he took us because we're clearly best fighter.

Or his curse is real, and so even if he did have feelings, sex would be horrendously painful for him.

Or he's had it long enough he's resolved to make the best of a bad situation. And one could see a good reason for remaining cautious of magic-users... because unlike the real world, there is actually magic.

If there is love, there's also jealousy, and we do want a good bride, and him not maybe sabotaging things.

While it is obvious that Redfort is gay, I'd still advise NOT TRYING TO SLEEP WITH EVERY NAMED CHARACTER WE MEET.

Answer "more love than pity" and leave it at that.

Why would this end up badly? It's basically canon that Redfort is gay anyway.
