Manheim
Arszden Kingdom
"A king's crown is only as strong as his bloodline.
But even one such as a king is always wise to choose his heir with the utmost care, for the head that is denied a crown will always turn for a sword. And a sharpened sword in the hands of any embittered man will always aim to draw blood — for only blood will pay for blood.
And the truth is, when the time comes… any heir will either be delivered the crown or wear one torn from a dead king's head."
