And that wraps up our intro, let’s get into the story!
Chapter 1: The Golden Prince
"At the High Citadel Gates, glowing with dawn light."
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
(looking up) Three years gone. Solara hasn’t changed a bit.
Jessie Khan
(Mc childhood friend)
(from behind) Except you came back hotter. And maybe a little taller?
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
Jessie. Still using your charm as a weapon, I see. 😏
Jessie Khan
(Mc childhood friend)
It’s more effective than your brooding.
Zelquinn Eryndale
(Mc childhood friend)
(approaching silently) He still broods. Just... brighter.
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
Zelquinn. Still dramatic, huh?
Zelquinn Eryndale
(Mc childhood friend)
You’re late. Your Father’s been waiting. The council is gathered.
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
I just arrived and already— *sigh* Solara welcomes his prince with politics.
"Cut to: Golden Palace, Council Room"
Daryven Aurelthane
(Mc Father)
(sitting on the throne)
Jayden. *Step forward*
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
Father.
Daryven Aurelthane
(Mc Father)
You’ve returned from the High Citadel. Tell me—what did you learn?
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
Control. Strategy. And... how to speak when silence is more powerful.
Khaleon Aurelthane
(Mc Older Brother)
(chuckling from the side) He learned poetry too?
Amara Aurelthane
(Mc Big Sister)
(smiling slightly) Better than learning to be a hammer, Khaleon.
Daryven Aurelthane
(Mc Father)
Enough. Jayden—you are being sent to the border.
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
...Umbraxis?
Daryven Aurelthane
(Mc Father)
A peace summit. The third prince of Ashborne will be there. You will represent Solara.
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
Me? Not Khaleon?
Khaleon Aurelthane
(Mc Older Brother)
I’m needed here. Besides... you’ve returned a man. Time to prove it.
Amara Aurelthane
(Mc Big Sister)
(quietly, to Jayden) Be careful. Not everyone at the border wants peace.
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
I understand.
Jayden walks down the sunlit corridor alone.
Jayden Aurelthane
(Mc)
💭 Ashborne… the enemy kingdom. And I’m to face them? What are you planning, Father?
Chapter 2: Ashes of War
"At the Umbraxis Fortress – scorched stone walls, distant roars of training beasts."
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
(slicing through a flame dummy) Again.
Soldier
(whispers) That’s the third target he’s burned through…
Zernyx Ashborne (Ml Older Brother)
(arms crossed, watching from shadows) Still furious?
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
I’m focused
Zernyx Ashborne (Ml Older Brother)
Same thing with you.
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
Father’s peace order is a mistake.
Zernyx Ashborne (Ml Older Brother)
We don’t question the king. We follow. Or we fall.
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
The Aurelthanes— They tried to erase our bloodline once.
Zernyx Ashborne (Ml Older Brother)
They’ll try again if we show weakness.
"War Room – Valestor, the King of Umbraxis, sits upon a blackened throne"
Valestor Ashborne (Ml Father)
Devon.
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
Father.
Valestor Ashborne (Ml Father)
You will attend the peace talks. The second prince of Solara will be present.
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
Jayden Aurelthane. A scholar. Not a soldier.
Valestor Ashborne (Ml Father)
Underestimate no one. Especially a prince.
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
Why me? Why not Karzeth?
Karzeth Ashborne (Ml Middle Brother)
(waltzing in dramatically) Because I’d start a war with a smile, brother. And that’s not what Father wants… this week.😉
Valestor Ashborne (Ml Father)
Enough.
Yvelrion Ashborne (Ml Mother)
(calmly from her place near the brazier) Devon, keep your flame steady. Ashborne burns—but it must not be consumed.
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
Understood, Mother.
"Devon alone in the courtyard at dusk, sparring with his spirit-beast—an wolf."
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
Jayden Aurelthane… Let’s see what the light looks like up close.
The wolf growls in response, glowing red.
Devon Ashborne (Ml)
💭 If this peace is a trap… I’ll be ready to burn it down.
