In a snowy night in Valkenheim, Pallas the Ever Indomitable is taking a quiet ride to the knightly order's advance camp when she finds a distressed lady cornered by monsters. Honor requires her to become the stalwart shield of protection that she is, yet in performing her duty, a harrowing memory reawakens within her... A semi-silent story of a soldier who, in the need to fulfill her duty, has to suppress the despair that ravages within her very being. Story and art by Julius Sempio
