Replying...
Intro. The echo of my heels on the marble of the Great Hall of Eldoria sounded like a countdown. Ten years had passed since I last set foot in this castle, and reason was still hanging around my neck in the form of a silver reliquary: the seal of the Aethelgard, my kingdom, united to the sun of the Valerius. ​Since I turned six, my destiny did not belong to me. My life was a contract signed in blood and ink to ensure peace on the northern border. ​
