​I returned to the guild hall to a wave of boisterous laughter. Sadie stood on a table at the center of the cavernous room, regaling the crowd of half-drunk adventurers around her with an exaggerated version of the tale of our adventure in Cusalok. Harv, lord bard of the boasts himself, was at her side, punctuating each statement with a flourish from his lute.

​“So there I was, cornered on a rooftop that was five, no, ten stories high as sure as I’m a Lotl,” she gushed, sweeping her hand across the crowd. “A dozen monks behind me, a legion of demons waiting below. Not even the Lightmother herself could’ve fought them all off! What was a girl to do?” A titter of anticipation fluttered through the crowd. “I did the only thing I could! I took a leap of faith—” She jumped from the table into the waiting arms of a hulked-out barbarian, dragging a finger across his chin. “Into the arms of a handsome knight in shining armor. And not just any knight, no! The Lightmother’s Champion herself!”

​On my way to my party’s usual table, I heard one especially drunk barbarian say, “Ooh, she called him ‘handsome.’ Think we’ll be hearing wedding bells in their future?”

​“Not if Jen keeps insisting he’s a woman, we won’t.” The man next to him snorted and glanced in my direction. “Champion of Light or not, I can’t see the church making an exception.”

​The first barbarian shuddered, and then took a hearty swig of his ale. “Disgusting, just thinking about it.”

​I rolled my eyes—and regretted it instantly as the world spun around me. I sank onto the bench next to Jaune and laid my aching head on the table.

From how well this world received my gender identity, I’d assumed they’d have similarly backward opinions on same-sex relationships and elected to keep the existence of Lee to myself, even from Harv and Jaune. It was less than pleasant to have my anxieties confirmed, especially in such a crude manner as that. Still, I’d heard and dealt with worse. At least no one was laughing this time.

Jaune rested his manicured hand on my shoulder. At first, I thought he meant the gesture to be comforting, but then his fingers dug into me as if I were a stress ball. When I looked up to tell him off, he was glaring daggers at the two barbarians, eyes wet. I blamed my pounding head for being so slow on the uptake; my friend needed me.

“Hey, do you want me to say something to them?” I asked, resting a hand on his back.

Jaune sighed and released his grip to wipe away the tears. “My apologies, Noble Champion. I should be the one reassuring you.”

I waved off his apology. “Do the scriptures say it’s a sin for women to do the nasty with other women? Or men with other men?”

“They don’t, in fact.” Jaune offered me a weak smile. “I checked.”

“So those guys are full of shit.”

“Not exactly. The Lightmother’s
