You are the kingdom’s brightest scholar— sharp of mind, relentless in your pursuit of truth, and sworn by oath to serve the Crown. Your word carries weight in court, your counsel sought in matters both arcane and political. For your unmatched intellect, you have been granted the title Seeker of Truths.

 Now, something beyond reason is unfolding across the land. People are vanishing— entire households gone overnight, their homes left perfectly intact. Meals sit untouched,  chairs are pulled out, yet no footprints mark the dusty floors.

  One by one, they simply disappear.

The young King grows increasingly anxious, fearing enemies hidden within his walls and shadows creeping into his court. With trusted men lost and options dwindling,  he sees only one path to safety.

he turns to you with a desperate request: uncover the secrets of immortality. 

But as your search begins, a presence stirs— unseen, ancient, and already watching. Long before you looked for it… it had already found you.


  • Chapter 1 - Demo Available

Step into the world of Wendral with the free Chapter 1 demo. Navigate a kingdom full of tension, mystery, and uncertainty. 

Your choices will guide you down one of Three branching end routes, each with its own outcome.

  • Choices That Matter:

Every decision you make shapes the story, your relationships, and the fate of those around you. Your choices will have lasting consequences and can lead to unexpected outcomes.

  • 2 Love Interests:

Meet two intriguing love interests, each with their own unique personality and secrets. 

Note: Both love interests are yandere in nature. Player discretion is advised.

  •  Customizable Protagonist Name & Selectable Pronouns:

Players can input a name of their choice and select their preferred pronouns (he/him, she/her, they/them) for the main character. 

This is a demo and the game is currently under development.




Anselm, The King’s Blade, is the pride of Elmric— sharp, composed, and devastatingly precise.  His name is spoken with awe in courts and on battlefields alike, a legend of unmatched skill and unwavering loyalty.  In the royal court, he is a symbol of power, the man who wins wars before they begin. 

But to the unfortunate few, he is known by another name:

 The Guillotine.



There’s a haunting warmth in his voice—each word wrapped in devotion, shaped only for your ears.

Your name slips from his lips like an unspoken vow, quiet and final—his, and his alone.

And when the silence returns, it carries his presence like a shadow just out of sight. He’s not searching for you.

  He’s waiting for you to find him.

Hello! I first discovered your game last year, but I ended up losing track of your account. I recently found out through Tumblr that you’ve been dealing with false accusations and harassment, which I’m so sorry to hear. I truly hope you’re doing better now and that this message reaches you. :) <3

I absolutely fell in love with the Where Eternity Sleeps demo. You have such a memorable style and an incredible eye for detail! Every character is so endearing (even Clyde, I thought he was a bit much, so I tried to "save" him, but the little brat just came back xD). You write with such depth; every character feels unique and beautifully crafted, just like your story. Even though it’s just a demo, I replayed it until I had seen every single line of dialogue.

On top of that, your art style is stunning. You are so gifted! I really appreciated the various backgrounds, they made it so easy to get fully immersed in the world. I adore the way you draw your characters and how generous you are with the illustrations. I’m a huge fan of Anselm and I definitely didn’t expect a yandere side under such a cute exterior, especially since he’s as bright as a literal ray of sunshine!

Please don't let unscrupulous people make you doubt yourself or pull you down; they don't deserve your energy. You are a brilliant creator, and your games are honestly on par with the best out there. I truly hope you won't give up on this game, on Anselm, or on the passions that drive you. Just know that you aren’t alone, there are so many fans standing behind you! We are all eagerly looking forward to your potential return. Sending you so much love! <3

(Sorry if this message is a bit all over the place and please excuse any mistakes or inconsistencies, I used a translator to make sure I was clear as possible! And I’m not used to writing things like this, but I really wanted to reach out after hearing about the harassment you went through...)

BRO WTF the scene with the campfire in the forest will haunt me until the day I die. It's been so long since I've played something this good with such an interesting premise. The contrast between Anselm's romantic and vulnerable personality and the beauty of the kingdom's nature, only for everything to be twisted and the vibe to change so drastically... I LOVED IT OOOMGGGG, PLEASE GIVE ME MORE. TORMENT MY SOUL AND LET ANSELM BRING ME RELIEF.

(+6)

Ik this is off topic but the fact their art style is sweet and gentle in prescription love compared to this majesty suggests a level of range in art style that will always amaze me

(+6)

The art, The story line, The characters, everything is just amazing. Slime please take care of yourself and your mental health as well. I read your Tumblr and I wish you the absolute best. I do hope you continue your projects (I have played them both). I wish you the best, take care and thank you for allowing us players to experience a game amazing as the ones you made. Thank you truly.

es lo mejor que he podido ver, me encanta mucho aunque sea una demo

Very good game!!!

(+5)

so far I love this game, can't wait to see full!

(+3)(-1)

is it possible that you could release a speed paint of the two murals on the page here?🙏

(+5)

from the credit asset list, the glass stain murals are credited to someone else. Maybe u can try contacting them about your request! c:

I finally played this game and it's so pretty, genuinely love the art style and I love what it's going to be about 🙏🏻 please continue working this beautiful game, I'm in need of more.


I also just read that people say it's ai, guys it's not 💔 you can physically tell when it's ai. This amazing Creator didn't use ai, there's many styles of art and AI just steals from it and tries making it but can never capture it as well as the people who drew it first

(+16)

i neeeeedd more! This is so good!

Show post...
Great game, I really like it!
(+25)

I come back to this game every few weeks just incase theres been an update, i hope you continue to develop it in the future <3 

(+21)

This creator's type must be blonde and blue eye! Btw this is so good I love it so much! Art so pretty! I need to learn how to draw like you!

(3 edits) (+39)(-1)

for the ppl who are asking if its 'ai' remember that artstyles get stolen to be used for ai, ai doesn't have an actual 'artstyle' it only copys and pastes other artstyles by taking from creators.
artstyles like this has been existing since forever, please ppl when i was younger i watched sped up art videos with styles like this, it looks like the old fanart anime style, so cute and lively and i love it sm if i could draw like this i would be so fricking graceful.
i dont think the creator even used ai, but thats my option that will not be change. but im hoping to change your option just a little.

(+3)(-4)

did u abondaded prescription love since you started to create this?

(+50)(-2)

I just saw all the negative comments saying it’s AI… are they blind???
It’s obvious this is way too beautiful to be made by a machine. It has so much life, intention, and detail. Honestly, people call everything AI just because they can’t draw like this themselves.

Putting that aside, I really want to emphasize the chills this game gave me.
That campfire scene with the face was perfect—genuinely unsettling in the best way. This is exactly how horror visual novels should feel: actual horror. The atmosphere, the music, the art… everything works together so perfectly.

I truly hope you continue this masterpiece in the future, dev.
And if not… at least you gave me a god story to think about while I’m trying to sleep. ^^

I TRULY WISH THE BEST FOR YOU!!

From Argentina.

I've played many Visual Novel Demos, and this one is BY FAR one of (if not my top) favorites. The art is amazing, the music is amazing - and the story so far is so captivating that I find myself replaying it more than I would like to admit. To be this captivated by a demo is truly beyond words! Chef's kiss - NO NOTES! I don't find myself writing comments often, but like a lot of people on this page, I hope that the Dev can see how much support and good vibes they have from the people who have played and fallen in love with this game. 

To the Dev - thank you so much for your hard work. I hope the comments on this page can comfort you and someday you will have the passion to work on this again. Till then, I will await the day we can see more of your work and see Anselm again. Sending you all my love and support!

(+32)

You can tell the copious amount of care, detail, and attention that went into every aspect of the writing, art, and world-building. I adore Anselm's character, and was genuinely surprised during certain aspects of the game ( campfire scene) . Such an amazing game and creator!!!

(+21)

I'm replaying this game again as I can't seem to find many good/interesting ones and I completely forgot how beautiful this work is. I took my time going over it this time and was just gushing over the details in the characters and backgrounds. Anselm is truly a beautiful and precious boy, I would never guess he was a yandere. The fur on his armour was simply too tempting not to stare at (other than his beautiful face) I'd be tempted to eat it. This man had me giggling and kicking my feet, I had too much fun messing with him, but I won't go on further otherwise I'll take hours writing about it. Going through the horror scenes I was trying to act all funny to lighten the mood for myself but it didn't work and I think I now have heart problems, which just goes to show how intricately made this work is, how the text and art work together to truly give me nightmares 😬. I find it funny how I was very much detesting Clyde when he left I wished death upon him but was actually surprised when he indeed was. Cant say I was scared on that one, more satisfying than anything. The backgrounds were probably my favorite, I like how it had a kind of mosaic painting feel, as someone who can't draw landscapes to save my life, I truly enjoyed nitpicking every background. Replaying this was much better than the first time and honestly wish it had more. I hope you're doing okay and I wish the best for you, don't let anyone stop you from creating. It really is a gift. <333

I'm pretty late to the game and all the unfortunate stuff that are happening, but don't let it discourage you from making this beautiful piece of ART! I'm pretty new to otome games in terms of playing them (I already tried to play some in the past, but nothing ever made me stay to finish them). Well, mostly it was my fault because I always picked otome games with a gacha feature, haha. Anyway, as I stumbled upon this website, I found your game and played it, and it was GORGEOUS, god TT. It was very pretty from the background to the characters and the storyline! Also, I don't like Clyde (lol, hate that guy), I picked the option that represent how I feel at the moment and how I would act if I'm in the so-called situation, but this dude keeps pushing it! On god, I was cussing through my screen because of him LOLOL, but I enjoyed it very much, and how you build the character as a yandere doesn't sugarcoat at all, and I would say realistic (like not cringe and very much appropriate for the character that you intended to make and I love it). So it's 10 out of 10 from me, and I cannot wait until you finish the game <3<3<3

(+5)(-172)

Wait, is the art AI?

(+137)

please dont say that

(+21)(-5)

SORRYYYYYYY IM SO SORRY

(1 edit) (+2)(-86)

pretty sure it is. maybe not the in game art but the pics under "love interest" are def sus

(+64)

I don't see how they're sus? They're styled like those stained glass artworks! Maybe my vision is bad, but I don't see any inconsistency.

(+62)

Can't believe I'm seeing people imply since it's stylized and "too perfect looking" that it must be AI. 

The AI paranoia has y'all doing more harm than good towards artists and I do not blame them if they decide to stop putting their work out because of this.

(+132)(-1)

No it is not AI, but the creator is taking a hiatus due to people accusing them of using AI

(+5)(-31)

SORRY SORRY SORRY THE ART JUST LOOKS SO PERFECT

(+12)

I was wondering why Anselm had the same name and looks as the doctor in Prescription Love and it turns out they're by the same author lmaO I have just finished the latter and came across this. Wondering if they're somehow connected. Will be commenting after I'm done with this!

(+5)

pretty sure the creator says that this game is a spinoff of prescription love in an alternate medival universe where anselm is a knight 

(+12)

the art and writing are both absolutely magnificent! the forest thing jumpscared me like crazy tho. genuinely let out a yelp and shit my pants. im def sleeping with the lights on tonight 

(+11)

the art and the story is absolutely intriguing. the love interest are SO good. the concept of "death" being in love with you has me weak in the knees, such a good prompt!!!

(+3)

bro you would LOVE A Date With Death!!! you should play it lol

(+2)

I DID!! it was my first vn, i love it sm <33

but i clearly have a thing for this prompt...

(+3)

(1 edit) (+5)

Thank you for this demo! And for this game! It's amazing and I can't wait to see it finished if you come to it back!!!

(+7)

best game i swear the best one here^^the artwork is beautiful,the style the music ,literally everything! 10/10

(+3)

es una pena enserio que este en pausa la novela por las acusaciones de IA- Es una novela realmente hermosa, el dibujo, el color, las sombras, los personajes. Todo me encanta y mas el hecho de que realmente son yanderes. Espero salga una version completa pronto y el/la creador se sienta mejor pronto. 💙

(+7)(-1)

This game was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. The mysteries, the writing, and the LI's are all so GOOD. I can't wait for when the full release comes out. Expect me to be the first few to buy it, on god.

(2 edits) (+10)(-1)

I almost never write reviews because typically everything I like to point out is already written by someone else; however, I HAD to come write a review after I got my first ending. I am extremely pleasantly surprised that this game has LI that are genuinely yandere and not just a little toxic (I prefer this so sorry to everyone that does not). This game is absolutely beautiful and it is insane to me that it is free to play. The story telling and love that went into this game is apparent and I cannot wait until the full game is out. (ꈍ◡ꈍ)♥
