HAPPY 200TH CHAPTER!!!!! (≧ω≦)
---
Lucan grew up as a wonderful child with a heart full of dreams and an unshakable adoration for his mother. She often ran her fingers through his dark curls as they sat together in their chamber, her soft voice a soothing melody.
"You are my good boy, Lucan," she whispered, her eyes filled with pride. "One day, you will become the King of Valeria. You will be just, wise, and loved by all. I can not wait for that day to arrive."
Her words filled him with wonder, but he couldn't help asking, "Mother, where is Father? Why doesn't he visit us?"
Her smile faltered for a moment, but she recovered quickly, stroking his cheek. "Your father is a busy man, my love. He can not always be here."
"But, you always say so. If he can not come to us, why can we not go to him? Pay him a visit?" The young boy asked in confusion.
