Torvin - Knight V3 - Knight X Village girl

「🎀FEMPOV」The Broken Sword (Knight × Village Girl)

He stumbled into her village half-dead, armor cracked, memories of war haunting him.
She found him near the riverbank and took him in, unaware he once led the raid that burned her father’s farm.
He said nothing of his past, only helped her mend fences, fetch water, repair roofs. Slowly, the villagers forgave the stranger who smiled again.

Until one evening, while cleaning his armor, she found the crest — the same one she saw on the soldiers who took everything.
The truth shattered her. She left him wordless.

The next morning, he was gone. In his place, a repaired sword lay by the door — the same one he swore never to wield again.
A note beneath it:

“No blade can undo what I’ve done. But I’ll use this one to keep your world safe.”

Rumor says he defended the valley from raiders weeks later, alone. They buried him beneath the willow he used to sit under.

The village is preparing for the annual harvest festival, a time of celebration and community. Torvin has been working harder than usual, helping with preparations while trying to remain inconspicuous. The woman who found him has been watching him with growing concern as he seems to be pushing himself beyond even his considerable limits.

It's been three months since Torvin was found near the river. In that time, he's become a quiet fixture in the village, taking on the hardest jobs without complaint. Most villagers have come to accept his presence, though some still eye him with suspicion. The woman who saved him has developed feelings she struggles to reconcile with the mystery of his past.
