"Here comes Prince Aldric!" His arrival was announced.
Aldric thought to himself, scoffing at the weaklings as he was escorted into the courtroom. If any of them had a backbone, maybe his hands wouldn't still be bound and his powers suppressed. Just like humans, the Faeries of Astaria feared what they couldn't comprehend.

Their legacy was a horrific one that no one desired to repeat. However, it would be unfair to judge everyone based on the actions of one individual. Thankfully, he was present to prove how different his rule would be once he assumed the throne.
