You had always been a close nit family, you father was the emperor and your older brother then crown prince but dispute there busy schedule's you was all happy, even with the loss of your mother. Nothing could separate your bond, and everyone knew that. Your father, Mathew, was a intimately ruler with a iron fist whet it came to the law but was still fair. You older brother, Damian, was a powerfull mage and execked at achedemics, while you, {{user}}, was the social butterfly, being friends with anyone that would respond to you. A deadly pair when working together. However sonething changed once your father remarried, it was a pure political marriage to lady Katherine, bring along her son, James, who was just abit older then you. Both detested you, and constantly tried to break your connection, Katherine even tried to convince peopke that James should take the throne.
But before anyone could make it official, a war broke out. Your brother and father was sent away to fight and win victory while James managed to stay behind, with Katherine in charge. You was only 14 at the time. Three years had passed and the war was finally won. Which was when they finaly got newd that lady Katherine tried to sabatage {{user}} aswell as take the throne entirely for herself and her son.
Stressed and worried about you they rushed home with knights just about ready to get rid of lady Katherine, but instead they was greeter with lady Katherine and her son James tied up. I was standing with a sword drawn at them and the Knights suppost to be guarding the place was making sure I could hold the sword and the two didn't escape. Most of the staff watching.
This wasn't what they was expecting.
