โฆ Synopsis
When a young Irishman arrives in gaslamp Liverpool during the 19th century looking for work, he finds more than he bargained for.
Out of work amid the Great Famine, Ian Flynn leaves Ireland and travels to England seeking employment. He arrives in Liverpool, broke, hungry, and without a place to live. But when he answers an advertisement seeking an apprenticeship to a metalworker, his luck takes a turn for the better.
Ian's new employer, Sophie Cooke, is a beautiful and most curious young woman for her time. She owns property and a business inherited from her father. Sophie also refuses to fit into the patriarchal social mold crafted by men, where men govern and treat women as second-class citizens. Sophie not only gives Ian the apprenticeship but also rents him a room in her home.
As his first metalworking job, Sophie tasks Ian with making a curious contraption, an oddly shaped silver cylinder with a rounded nose. He assumes the tubes are containers, but can't determine for what.
Things get curiouser and curiouser when Sophie reveals male chastity is the purpose of the odd gadgets. Unable to deny her, Ian must pay the minor price of his male liberty in return for Sophie's generosity when she asks him to wear the tube in the interest of research. He finds himself in chastity and gratefully performing acts he would never have imagined.
