Synopsis: The Moss Kingdom was always known as the weakest kingdom. Any of the other kingdoms could destroy it at any moment. Knowing that, the Moss King hosts a tournament to find the strongest warrior in his kingdom so they can become his personal guard and protect him. After arriving at the Moss Kingdom by chance, a nomadic traveler wins the tournament hosted by the king himself. He tries to fulfill his newfound position as the king's personal protector, though his job grows much harder after a meeting goes horribly wrong and the king makes himself an enemy of the kingdom by the coast. * * * Shipping Info: -Bdubs x Etho.
