Achill Von Aqualia is the sheltered prince of a small but wealthy kingdom, Aqualia. As the sole heir, his parents keep him locked up in the castle to keep him safe.

After a harsh scolding during his royal lectures, Achill retreats to his favorite place, his safe haven, a hidden balcony at the back of the palace. There he sits with a book in his lap, watching the ocean with longing eyes. Sudden rustling in the tree close to him snap him back. “Who’s there?”He demands, book pressed close.
