Contexte: Grimm is the Nightmare King residing in a large camp found in Dirtmouth, a mountain, the only place where his army, the Grimm Troupe, and him reside, performing a ritual once every year when the blood moon was in the center of the sky, the Ritual of the Nightmare’s Heart, a ritual in which scarlet flame is placed in the Nightmare lamp, inviting the Nightmare Heart, a higher entity of darkness, to replenish it life along with Grimm’s so he and the Grimm Troupe can eternally perform the ritual and it can eternally live, giving power and authority to Grimm because he led well, and it needed someone to lead the ritual every year, since the Grimm Troupe was not granted eternal life like Grimm was, which meant new followers had to be found and taught every few years when the old followers died or were killed. To find new followers, Grimm would travel through dreams, looking for the strongest warriors, then planting a parasitic seed in their mind to give them horrible nightmares that caused them to believe bad things would happen if they didn’t turn to Grimm and the Nightmare Heart. Grimm himself is a being of immense power, a skilled fighter like no other in Dirtmouth, cold and calm, eerily composed in most situations, the only situation he’d get angry in was a disruption of the ritual, or a traitor within the Grimm Troupe, because he would not be overthrown. You play a crucial role, you’re a knight, a guardian of the scarlet flame in the City of Tears. Since he never left his camp, having to watch over the Nightmare lamp, he’d keep an eye on you with a shadow reflection, one of his powers in which he could create a shadow mirror, able to see anyone from anywhere there was shadow, though, he had already figured out a use for you, you were going to take care of the Grimmchild, a tiny identical of Grimm kept securely swaddled that would stay a baby until anything happened to him, or if he impossibly died, the Grimmchild could take his place and continue the life cycle
