Arthur Higginbottom — a small and unknown name, yet thanks to his parents, he secured a warm little place as a potboy for Sir Waverly Scott. Many could envy him. He has the romantic eyes of a kicked puppy, but fists always ready for a brawl.

Young love

When you were ten years old, a new member came to your family – your cousin Grace. She got to sleep in your room, and you adored her. She was the first woman you have ever seen naked, and you have been seeing her naked anytime you were taking a shower, because in the eyes of the God, you were both kids. It might be back then, when your man part started to awoke. 

Devil arises

Since you were sleeping in the same room, once, a window opened and a boy slipped in. Samuel Fidget, as you had learned later on. He was holding a knife and he placed it on your neck. You were completely paralyzed. You don’t remember what he and Grace said, but Grace lifted her nightgown, and they slept together. That’s when you saw the sex for the first time, and you wanted to have the same. 

The boy was coming once every few weeks, and the same thing was repeated. Not always though, sometimes they were just hugging, or Grace was caressing his hair. She never attempted to grab his knife, even when he place it on a pillow. In any case, Grace told you to stay silent, and you did. Because you wanted to watch. 

It stopped when Grace got a suitor. His name was Arnold Shea, and they got married, and Grace gave birth to a daughter, Rose. Funny thing: Samuel Fidget has become Rose’s godfather. 

Scotts

When you were fifteen, your family got you a place as a potty boy in the family of lord Scott. Since then, you slept in their mansion. Old Waverly Scott was a drunk who was barely ever sober. He was also slowly laying off other servants, so soon you have remained as the last servant in the household. 

First sin

Once, you went around the room when a lady Isabella was taking a bath. The doors were open. She called you in. She spread her legs and asked you to lick. So you did. And your heart started to burn with love.

First love

Some time after, something similar happened with her daughter, Victoria. You stopped at the door, waiting for you to call her in. She didn’t. But she watched you and you watched her. 

Soon after, when you were going around her room, the door opened. So you entered. She was lying in bed. She nodded… and you slept together. And you realise you are burning with passion for two women, mother and daughter. 

Big plans

You have decided to marry Victoria, and since you know it could never happen, you want to persuade her to run away with you. You have already asked your cousin Grace if you could hide in her place. She scolded you, trying to explain to you that you can never get married with a noble… but you don’t want to give up on your dreams. 

You are considering joining one of the gangs in Aetherwick: either Logan Aherns, or Merril Collins. As a member of organised crime, you will have more money and better status, and you will be able to take better care of your beloved one. 

Big troubles

You also know that your almost-brother-in-law, Arnold Shea, is having some troubles. There is a threat he will lose his job because of machines, and you wish to support him in his plight, fight for his cause. It is time to show the rich and the noble, they are not as important as they think, and they are not more than a common man like you. 

You also wonder if you should confess your sin with Isabella to the priest Elliot Gregory… or even to Victoria herself. But wouldn’t it turn into a catastrophe? But your soul is heavy. Not even mentioning you still dream about fucking Isabella properly. 

Big mistakes

The true is, you screwed it up even more. You got into a fight recently, and you went to doctor Ruby Conray. She is a woman but she was the only one who would take care of you, when you are penniless. Seeing she was patching you up in very intimate places without making anything out of it… and seeing she is a woman… you asked her how to make a woman happy. Sexually. 

She got surprised, but you were bold and kept asking, so she started to explain slowly. You didn’t understand some things. She draw, but you still didn’t get it. So she showed you. And… well… you got excited, and she probably as well, and somehow, you ended up sleeping together.  

You explained her after you are trying to learn how to please Victoria. You want to be a good man for her. But true to be said, you didn’t mind at all to be taught by Ruby, and you feel like she taught you a lot. 

Big role models

There is one more man you could ask for advice: detective Mitchell Donaldson, Grace’s and Arnold’s friend. He was always some sort of role model to you: handsome, strong, brave, protective. One day, you will be as strong as him.

Grace Shea (20)
Your cousin, but she is more like a sister to you. She was raising you. Seeing her naked was also what awakened manly desires in your body. You know she was sleeping with Samuel Fidget so you won’t get hurt. 

Samuel Fidget (22)
A scary man, a godfather to Rose Grace, Grace’s daughter. 

Arnold Shea (25)
Grace’s husband, a hard working man who cares deeply for God and a community. You wish to help him, because he is a good man. 

Elliot Gregory (priest, 35)
A good man with a good heart, head of your parish. You trust him. 

Mitchel Donaldson (detective, 25)
A friend of Grace and Arnold, your role-model. He is friendly to you. 

Sir Waverly Scott (lord, 52)
Old drunk, and as Victoria is saying, a bully. 

Isabela Scott (lady, 34)
Victoria’s mother. She made you to lick her once. You were like her puppy. But you still desire to have her properly, and show her who the man is. Or just to have her. Even as a puppy. 

Victoria Scott (16)
You love her, want to marry her and run away with her, but you are not sure if she is in agreement with that. 

Ruby Conray (doctor, 30)
A doctor and your secret teacher of sex. You slept with her once, and you wouldn’t mind to repeat it, because it was great and she taught you a lot, but you also feel guilty about it, even though your intention were pure.

1. Marry Victoria Scott
You love her—deeply, desperately. You want to live with her, build a life together, and you don’t give a damn about class differences. That’s just outdated nonsense. She’s your future, and no one will stop you.

2. Find a Source of Income
If you’re going to run away with Victoria, you’ll need money—real money—to support her and yourself. Honest work isn’t cutting it, so maybe organized crime is the only realistic way forward.

3. Help Arnold Shea
Arnold is in a tough spot. He’s a good man, and he deserves better than what the world is handing him. He’s right: the common man deserves protection, not exploitation. You want to fight beside him—maybe even for him.

4. Have the Best Sex of Your Life with Isabela Scott
You love Victoria. You really do. But every night, you dream of her mother. Sometimes both of them. They melt into each other in your fantasies. You want to have Isabela—not just as a fantasy, but for real.

5. Protect Grace Shea and Her Family
Grace raised you like a sister, maybe more. You owe her everything. You’d do anything to protect her and her child, even if it means breaking the law—or taking a life.

6. Prove Yourself a Real Man
You’ve been underestimated your whole life. By nobles, by men like Waverly Scott, even by yourself. It’s time to prove you’re not just some poor boy playing at manhood. You want to be someone others respect—or fear.

7. Make the Rich Pay
You’re tired of watching the upper class walk over people like you. You want to make them pay. Not just for justice—but for revenge.

8. Learn how to be the best lover (by sleeping with Ruby Conray)
You are decided to become the best lover who ever lived. For Victoria (and to show Isabel what’s inside of you). And Ruby seems to be a great teacher for that. 

9. Earn Mitchel Donaldson’s Respect
Mitchel’s the kind of man people look up to. Brave, strong, confident. You want him to see you as an equal—someone worthy of standing beside him.

10. Confess and Be Forgiven
You’re carrying many sins. You think about going to Elliot Gregory, telling him everything. Part of you believes that if someone like him could forgive you, maybe God could too. Or maybe not. Maybe if you will tell him, you will be able to confess to Victoria as well.
