Quickly abandoning the breakfast table Mordred turned back to his room, which took a surprising amount of time. The Goldstein mansion was just that big.
'Either that or my legs are just short for a seven-year-olds.'
It was strange being a child again, seeing things from another angle even the windowsills of large windows were difficult to reach. He had to tiptoe to see through.
' Is that Alfonse?'
For sure, it was his elder brother going on a walk around the garden carrying a book.
' He sure liked plants from an early age huh?'
Still, it was quite of a leap thinking of 12 Alfonse to the 2D love Interest Alfonse. It was quite strange to believe this is the world of a game, and a bit scary knowing how easily people could die because of a young woman's love adventure.
'Seriously who made this world?'
He would have liked to have some words with whoever put him in this situation. Yet Mordred could recognize this wasn't the worse it could happen.
The Goldsteins despite the recent troubles are a loving family, had plenty of money, and kept to themselves for the most part. He could have been reborn as a brother to another Love Interest like Luca and got stuck in a cellar for 15 years without contact with the outside world.
'Still, did Mother really have to name me Mordred? I know that the Arthurian Cycle may not exist here but come on, Alfonse and the others all have normal names why did I get stuck with the weird one?'
Shaking his head, Mordred opened the notebook and started writing.
Wizardess Heart is a Fantasy Otome game, the events start when the Heroine with her default name being Liz Hart attends the Gedonelune Royal Magic Academy at roughly 18 years old, and she has the same age as Elias so 13 years from now on?
The main story mostly revolves around Mystery Series, each one has three routes and shares a common problem/plotline, there are 11 Mystery Series that can be further divided into two. In sum having 32 romanceable options - Klaus has two separate routes in both parts because he was that popular.
The first part of the Mystery series includes seasons 1 to 5. They cover the 13 trial days that the Heroine spends in the Academy as a probatory student. At the end of each route is revealed if she is passed or not. Each route has no relationship with the other aside from those of the same Mystery series, and they can be considered a parallel universe of their own.
From the beginning to the last of Part 1, we have:
Tower of Sorrow: A Professor attempts to steal a treasure hidden on the Academy Grounds but he only does that in a manipulation attempt by a student who is also a Love Interest.
Love Interest Characters: Elias, Yukyia, and Luca.
Worse it could happen: Either someone dies trying to enter the Tower of Sorrow, or the Jewel of Time is successfully stolen by someone with a grudge against the Royal Family.
Threat Level: Low.
Solution: Just convince Luca to not steal the Jewel and reveal his mother is the late Princess Aulelia.
Spring of Unicorns: A student possessed (Azuza) by a magical creature tries to murder a unicorn so it can grow more powerful
Love Interest: Azuza, Randy, and Klaus
Worse it could happen: People dying, a murderous magical creature grows even stronger and goes rogue on the Academy grounds, and Klaus is wrongfully arrested.
Threat Level: Low to mid?
Solution: Just hire an Exorcist.
The King of Fairies: A Unicorn steals a Fairy Flower and wishes to be a human, unfortunately, it goes wrong and he turns into an amnesiac human (Leon) the Fairy Flower was linked to the King of Fairies' daughter lifeforce.
Love Interest: Joel, Vincent, and Leon
Worse it could happen: People dying, another magical creature running around but this time is a Pyscopath Unicorn (Unicorns don't feel emotions) passing as a human, The King of Fairies goes mad trying to get his daughter back, sends troves of magical creatures and other fairies.
Threat Level: Mid to High.
Solution: Difficult, finding the Fairy Flower and the weakened Princess is paramount and there's a time limit, if things go wrong there's little I can do to fix it.
The Princess of the Crystal: A Dark wizard tries once again to get the Sleeping Songstress (Fairy) on the Academy grounds, this time aided by a temporary Professor (Gleen)who is being blackmailed with the life of his entire village.
Love Interest: Cerim, Guy (who is the Dark Wizard's son), and Gleen
Worse it could happen: A Dark Wizard kills everyone, gets the power of a Fairy, and drains an entire village of its life force. The Songstress goes mad seeing her descendant who looks just like her past love (Cerim) killed in front of her eyes and goes on a rampage.
Threat Level: Low, fairly easy to avoid.
Solution: Just warn Gleen that the Dark Wizard is the one who cursed his Village, or one of the Professors about the threat.
The Sol Maiden: An Unkown darkness is spreading in the forests nearby the Academy. Later is revealed that a Dimensional Traveler has been slowly gathering energy across world lines to summon Ancient Ones, the first one being He Who Consumes All Light.
Love Interest: Leslie, Sigurd, Mel.
Worse it Could happen: In the best case Darkness spreads and the leylines of the entire region are ruined, making it a National Disaster. Worse the Ancient One is summoned and all light in the world disappears, including the Sun. Everyone in the world dies.
threat Level: Low to High.
Solution: Depends if the DT is directly interfering or just gathering energy, if it's the latter simply doing the Sol Maiden ritual should work but if the DT is here is unknown what she will do and what knowledge she has.
Frowning Mordred paused as he wrote this one, putting away the pen.
'I am pretty sure that in this Mystery Series, the Heroine has Sigurd as a pen pal... It could be a sign that we are in this Series route or another one, I will have to ask it later then.'
Continuing he turned the page:
Now we have part 2 of the Mystery Series, unlike part 1 they are all interconnected following a timeline of events. One of the troubles here is that I didn't finish playing all of it, so the information is incomplete but to summarize: 2 years after the Heroine joined the Academy she has become a Prefect, the new Headmaster revealed the existence of the Night Class a previous secret class of students that have some knowledge of Dark Magic.
As the series progresses it is revealed that the some of Dragonkin survived the war and are planning to destroy the world as revenge. Also, it's implied that the Heroine has time-travel powers that she only remembers as dreams.
The Labyrinth and the Cursed Prince: It's revealed that there's an underground Labyrinth under the Academy, with a cursed Prince (Love Interest of another Mystery) inside. Klaus hides an important item, giving it to the Heroine.
Love Interest: Zeus, Hiro, and Klaus - it's not a sequel but an alternative route for him.
Worse it could happen: People getting killed by the Labyrinth Guardian, getting lost in the Labyrinth, getting killed by the Wizard searching for the item. Getting killed by Hiro's cursed sword.
Solution: Talk to Zeus about a plan to free the Prince, make Klaus have sensible communications skills and not hide important items in his friend's possessions. Exorcise Hiro's sword.
Notes: By now Klaus will have graduated and working for the Ministry. I think there's talk of the Star Sapphire - an important item - being hidden in the Labyrinth.
The Poetry - The Beginning and the End: A plague appears, and the Heroine searches for the Star Sapphire. There's some trouble with Illegal Magic Tools? Hugo the time traveler from the desolated future appears and helps with the trouble
Love Interest: Alfonse, Caeser, Lucious (Cursed Prince)
Solution: No idea since I don't know the exact events.
Notes: Pretty sure Alfonse helps with the Plague part.
The Sword of the Queen: The Headmaster is revealed to be a Dragonkin, and relationships with the neighboring country of Queensblade are worsening. A specific item is searched for and somehow they discover the Queen has been replaced with a clone.
Love Interest: Hugo (the Time Traveler), Hisoka, and the Headmaster Willem
Notes: I am sure the Dragonkin plans are interrupted in this route with the Headmaster's help, but they manage to escape.
The Phantom Thief & the Tower of Memories: Something about a Phantom Thief (?) and a literal ghost who are the same?
Love Interest: Nox, Rex, and Gray (The Ghost)
The Cursed Twins and the Mysterious Clan: Once again someone is possessed by a magical creature.
Love Interest: Lars, Clive, and Ted.
White Dragon: People are getting cursed to transform into magical creatures, and the Heroine hatches a Dragon?
Love Interest: Florin, Albert, Light.
Notes: I am sure that Albert was mentioned as one of Klaus's childhood friends.
Looking at the increasingly blank space between paragraphs, he sighed with an unhappy face.
'And here we have the main problem.'
Wizardess Heart was discontinued, so the storyline from the second Mystery Series was never finished. It was implied that the remaining Dragonkins would be a future love interest, but a route was never made before the game shut down.
In other words, if he wanted to stop the Dragonkins once and for all, it would be better to either use the earlier routes or if worse comes wing it when the time comes.
Still, it wasn't a hopeless case. It could be that this world was one of the earlier Mystery Series, and the Dragonkin problem would be non-existent. Or it could be a world where the Heroine doesn't even exist... Perhaps he could try localizing the Heroine another time?
Noticing the late hour, he put the notebook away. Further lines of research will have to come later.
New lines of research unlocked!
Where is the Heroine? Try to find the Heroine before the events of game beggins.
Character Compilation! Compilate knowledge of a specific character!
Object Compilation! Try to make a list of important objects in the game.
Dragonkins, knowglegde of them is scarce but is not nothing, try to find more about them.
Ask Sigurd if he has a penpal, it could be a clue to see which route this world will follow.
Here we go, not a exciting chapter but opening with it will give you some awareness of the game and the setting. Next update is visiting Mom and Horse Riding, the Library will be left for the last due to reasons.
