The Lost Heir is a dark, fantasy epic set in the Kingdom of Varyath, a once-prosperous land now teetering on the brink of destruction. The story follows Aleron, the reluctant and self-doubting heir to the throne, who has spent his life in the shadows, far removed from the politics of the royal court. After the sudden death of his mother, Queen Seraphine, Aleron is thrust into the position he never wanted, inheriting not just a crown, but the weight of a kingdom on the verge of collapse. Unbeknownst to most, the kingdom is plagued by a growing darkness known only as The Void—a mysterious, ancient force that threatens to consume the world. As political intrigue and rebellion stir within the royal court, Aleron must navigate the treacherous waters of leadership, power, and betrayal. Guided by his closest confidante, Valeria, and the whispers of a prophecy that has haunted his bloodline for centuries, Aleron begins to unravel the secrets of his heritage, discovering that his true power lies not only in his blood but in a long-lost magic tied to the fate of the kingdom. The kingdom’s survival hinges on Aleron’s ability to embrace his destiny and rise as the leader he was always meant to be. But as the Void grows closer, and enemies—both seen and unseen—plot against him, Aleron must confront his greatest fear: that he may not be enough to save the kingdom, or even himself. The Lost Heir is a tale of destiny, sacrifice, and the struggle between light and dark, as one young man must choose whether to fulfill his legacy or abandon it—and in doing so, decide the future of Varyath itself.

With a saint-like image and the heart of a devil, Theodore Winter entered the fray. Unbeknownst to all, other than returning triumphantly, he was entrusted with another task: To kill Huang Xian’s murderer–his wife, the Heavenly Empress! ------------------------- Read advance chapters (by paying for my meals) on Patreon: • https://www.patreon.com/sh1ro My novel series "Reincarnation Cycle's Unfortunate Bug" on Amazon: • https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CYHGRR8M/ Discord Server (currently under construction): • https://discord.gg/NdAjjmXSDh ------------------------- Hi there, this is Shiro / the author. Just one little cautionary warning here: Due to being set in an entirely alternate world from ours, while some terms and concepts might seem familiar at first glance, many in actuality are not. In canon, the World's Will of a world exactly like our own 'got inspired' by memories that it secretly glimpsed from the Heavenly Emperor, thereby creating extremely loosely related concepts in its own universe.
