As you embark on your new role, you'll find yourself immersed in a complex network of relationships involving students, their families, and the staff at an exclusive boarding school. Everyone has their own agenda, and the situation may not be as clear-cut as it seems. Your primary responsibility is to ensure the safety of your charge while managing hidden conflicts that arise amongst the students and their influential parents.
The connections you forge with others during this journey will significantly influence how events unfold. Will you choose to collaborate with fellow staff members, or will you maintain your distance to concentrate solely on your duties? How will you address the growing tensions between students—some desperately seeking freedom from family expectations while others engage in potentially harmful games regarding their futures?
"Honor Bound," an interactive novel by Harris Powell-Smith, invites you to protect a prestigious boarding school while rebuilding your life following a scandal. Now take on the role of a military bodyguard for the affluent children in the Republic of Teran.
In this entirely text-based narrative of 595,000 words, every decision you make shapes the story, free from graphics or sound effects, propelled solely by the power of your imagination.
Having established a promising career in the Teranese military—an organization that has remained relatively inactive for decades—you're faced with an unexpected turn of events after sustaining an injury that has sidelined you from fieldwork. This complication leads to a discreet reassignment: you become the bodyguard for the teenage child of a renowned scientist enrolled at a boarding school deep in the wilderness. Although it's a tranquil setting where the offspring of elites aspire to become artists and scientists, danger may lurk closer than you think, especially as this institution lies near your hometown, providing you with familiarity.
While you aim to recover and revive your career, multiple threats emerge. What clandestine projects are your colleagues engaging in under the cover of night? What vital information is being withheld by your commanding officer? Bandits roam the outskirts—including an old childhood friend—and the delicate environment is constantly at risk from natural disasters. Moreover, as you navigate these challenges, you're confronted with emotional hurdles tied to returning home and adapting to your new circumstances. Can you truly go back to your roots?
Throughout this experience, you have the option to cultivate a supportive community by bonding with colleagues or to project an image of detached competence. Will you pursue ambition to earn glowing evaluations and reclaim your life, or will you spiral into chaos, becoming someone only bandits might tolerate? Alternatively, perhaps you'll find the courage to risk everything for the sake of doing what’s right.
