The Fairy King's True Name

The realm of the fae is closer than most people know, but you are intimately familiar with it. You are the consort of the Fairy King, a position you neither asked for nor necessarily wanted. Everyone in the fae realm, especially the mortal humans, know it is unwise to deny the Fairy King. And so you agreed, regardless of how you felt about the idea.

The Fairy King, a dour-looking creature of pale skin and luminous eyes, with black hair, soot-coated fingertips, and a crown of bone, is not known for being gentle. They are known, instead, for their cunning and their cruelty. 

If you are to escape them, you too must be cruel and cunning. If you are to escape, you must slay the Fairy King. Escape is not your only choice, however... Your future is yours to decide.

Using 2d6, gather items or learn of locations that may hold sway over the Fairy King and tell the story of how your character escapes their grasp (or not - the story is yours!). 

Safety Notes: This game focuses on concepts of historical folklore, abandonment, non-consensual relationships, and physical violence. If these are not themes you wish to explore, please do not download this game. If you choose to do so, please take care: Player discretion is advised.
