Chereads / The 37th Regent / Chapter 11 - Force (END)

Chapter 11 - Force (END)

ALTER

"I don't know of winter woes nor do I acknowledge defeat, I have a blade, meant to serve, with unwavering loyalty and a rigid heart, I pledge my service to the Hiraeth, and wear this ring of stone." I recited the oath I was given, to become a Regent within the high court, serving the King directly.

Walking in a starlit sky was always fulfilling for me, to just see the twinkle of light had my heart full with hope. But what if one day these stars were to be covered? Would this world still be the how it is? Or would the stars fall, and the ocean sink? We would die a death with no after. So I will provide an Alternate path, such is my purpose.

My brother Calin, is with me in the court as the 3rd Regent, I serve as the 37th, over 400 years there have been 37 Regents all possessing the blood of Ancients, some in low quantity and some in high quantities, so no one can last forever, there are 12 Regents remaining, most having their positions inherited from their Fathers.

Peace was the greatest thing my brother accomplished, but now there has been a war in every corner of Ieonoth, Henry who I found was a noble saw me in court, and looked at me sadly, as if he knew that this was inevitable no matter what happened, and he could not change it.

I will set out to reclaim the Ieonoth from the war, starting with Luxen, the city of light, and the city cascaded with darkness.
