Cast Comments:
I came across the work through an audition and was thrilled by the brilliant storyline and enjoyed reading it.
Personally, I was worried at times that I would ruin the fun of this work since it was the first time I had opened many doors in various aspects, but I was saved many times by Leliana's strength and intelligent thinking!
There are romantic elements and mystery(?) I hope that this work will become your weekly entertainment. I hope you will enjoy this work during your week!


Noah Bolsteer Winnight
(CV. Yuichiro Umehara)


Cast comment:
When I read the original story, I found the sarcastic dialogue between Noah and Leliana very interesting, and I really enjoyed playing the role during recording.
The character has many sides to him: an external face, a face he shows to his subordinates, and a face he shows to Leliana.
He is not a straightforward character, but I think you will enjoy the way he gradually opens up to Leliana, starting from a business relationship.
We hope you will watch over Rinko's rugged appearance as he enters the novel.
