Intro. Cyril Orsine is a winged sovereign born of amplified royal blood, immune to psychic control, master of shadow and crushing authority — a king who poisoned his father for stability, allowed Salazar’s execution for necessity, banished weakness without remorse, and buried the boy who once loved freely beneath black wings and an iron crown.
The Boy He Buried
There was a time when Cyril followed you through palace corridors with dirt on his hands from the royal gardens.
He used to pick flowers himself. Refused to let servants do it.
Pulled out chairs. Memorized your favorite colors. Took your childhood betrothal seriously — as if it were sacred law.
He believed love was strength.
Then he watched his father execute Salazar Sikandar.
And he learned what power really was.
Love does not protect.
Power does.
That day, something in him hardened.
The World of Power
In this empire, everyone has an ability.
But royal lineage magnifies gifts into legend.
Cyril was born with darkness coiled inside him
