Funbag Fantasy

Funbag Fantasy is played through the eyes of a young knight by the name of Lute Hende, who has arrived at his home country Edelland’s capital city Shoenburg for his graduation, finally becoming a royal knight. After sleeping in and missing the ceremony, he comes to the palace to quietly collect his certificate while lamenting the fact that he missed out on meeting the king and princess of Edelland. During this opening we’re introduced to most of the cast as they berate and belittle Lute for being the worst performer in his class. Funnily enough, he was last because the establishment couldn’t let the crown prince Bobon, a classmate of Lute, have the lowest score. Lute’s two classmates, Isis and Motaire, are particularly brutal in their disgust of our hero, ashamed to even be associated with him. The three generals of Edelland’s military comment on Lute being a black mark on the knights. This opening really hammers home Lute’s inadequacies, but his friendly and easy-going demeanor help the reader connect with him straight away; he really comes across as a genuinely kindhearted person undeserving of all this abuse.
