Lynt Akedia

*This page might contain spoilers. Proceed at your own discretion.*

## Description

Prince of Akedia. Forever sleepy and loath to put forth effort, his considerable magical powers has put his kingdom's expectations squarely on his shoulders. You may be the source of inspiration he has been looking for...

In the Japanese version, Lynt's last name is Belphe after Belphegor, one of the Princes of Hell according to Peter Binsfeld's 1589 classification of demons. Belphegor was based on one of the seven deadly sins: Sloth or Acedia in Latin. Lynt's last name in the English version, Akedia, likely stems from the sin itself rather than the Prince of Hell like in the Japanese version.

Book 1 of Lynt's Consort Path was available when the app launched on October 27, 2020. Book 2 of Lynt's Consort Route will be released towards the middle of February 2024.

## History

Lynt was very close to his grandfather and the two read together often when he was a child. His grandfather gave him a book, intended for children, about magic. The first time Lynt used ancient magic, he was a child. Tino tells MC that Lynt used his ancient magic back then "in order to protect that which he loved." Lynt's father arranged his marriage when he was little.

## Personality

Lynt's personality is described as taciturn and sleepy.

Lynt is the most affectionate of the princes and is the most likely to hold MC's hand, cuddle her, and kiss her cheek/forehead. He also sometimes clings to the other princes when looking for something comfortable to lean on. Guy is his favorite to cuddle because he likes the way Guy smells. When there are problems with MC, he tries to sort them out immediately. He spends most of his time sleeping and has the tendency to disappear from time to time. Hating discord, Lynt usually plays the role of peacekeeper among the princes. When Lynt's sad, he usually tries to escape the feeling by sleeping or reading the book his grandfather gave him. Prior to meeting MC, Lynt had never wanted anything. This caused him to go through life accepting whatever he was told and giving away anything that was asked of him. He sees most things as a bother and lets others do things for him when he's otherwise capable.
