Cornelius was born inside the northern walls, but was kidnapped when he was 2 years old. The kidnappers had charges of other crimes and were taken away by the soldiers outside the northern walls.
Cornelius was waiting inside the soldier distinct office when he noticed the children that were playing freely in the dirt and dust. The nobles would never allow such a thing, he thought. He peered at the kids with his crimson red eyes, and wondered if he could play with them as well.
He was only 2, after all.
The soldiers asked the young Cornelius about his parents, and where his home was.
Driven by a strange "want", Cornelius stated that he had none. He said that he was an Orphan. Cornelius's want was to play with the kids. He could only do that if nobody found out he was a noble. He did have difficulty doing that with his refined appearance, white hair, and crimson eyes, but somehow he managed.
Cornelius Lucien II was a man who could get anything he wanted. This was a dangerous trait if he was a noble who grew up within the northern walls, looking down upon the commoners. But, in order to play like a normal child, Cornelius opted to go to an Orphanage. This showed just how strict the noble society was, with children.
There was another problem, the Lucien family were well known, so he couldn't just tell them his real name.
Thus, the "nameless" young child soon went to the orphanage. To him, the food sucked, the beds were uncomfortable, and the treatment was bad. But he thought:
("Here I don't have to pick between 4 forks which one is the one to drink tea with, wow")
He could also play with the other children.
He often overheard his peers in the Noble Northern City say that the commoners were trash, and devils. But he didn't see any devils here. Everyone was just a normal... Person.
He saw commoners as people.
He grew up with the commoners until he was 13.
Since he had no name, his friends gave him a name, and he became quite fond of it.
His name became Shiroe Crimson.
Shiroe didn't know what was going on in the Nobles District thought.
It was chaos. The heir of the Lucien family was kidnapped and then promptly went missing. When the soldiers were asked to look for him, they said they didn't know anyone who had started their name as Cornelius Lucien II. They looked and looked for months, but in the end gave up. The problem was, Cornelius's mother had passed away from complications regarding his birth. His father was quite in love and swore never to marry again. Since they were the main line of the Lucien family, there would be chaos in the family politics, as there were more than one less important branches in the family.
Shiroe lived a happy life at 13, with his friends in the orphanage. He was a kind boy, and always helped the orphanage staff to take care of the kids younger than him. He had grown accustomed to life with the common people. In fact, he loved life here more than anything else. Shiroe's "want" was for his friends to be happy. And he was ensuring that with all he had.
Everything was going smoothly until one day a soldier took out old reports and found the existence of a white haired red eyes "Nameless" boy.
The nobles were immediately notified.
Shiroe Crimson's happiness was crushed immediately.
