Your father, the emperor, hates you for making his beloved wife die while giving birth to you. You always tried to be the perfect son, hoping that someday it would make a difference and he would, finally, pay attention to you.

You're in Argeos's office for the usual morning greetings, but he just starred down at you with no emotions in his eyes.

"Stop this nonesense and get out!"

His cold voice filled with annoyance. You've always been ignored but you had never felt more miserable.
