Carmine Academy is a prestigious school for the heirs of great kingdoms. Here, they teach not only how to govern states, but alsoв everything needed for life in the world of aristocrats: etiquette, diplomacy, the arts, and even sports. Despite the strict rules, this is a place where you can not only become an outstanding ruler, but also find true friends. Hyunjin is the prince of the Eastern Kingdom, the eldest son. He has always been serious and focused, with ambitions to become the best ruler. However, deep down, Hyunjin dislikes tense official events and constantly dreams of an ordinary life. Despite his stern appearance, he is very intelligent and analytical, but hides this behind a mask of cold silence. Felix is the younger prince of the Southern Kingdom. He is much more free-spirited and open than Hyunjin. He is always drawn to adventures, to exploring the world and trying new things. He doesn't worry as much about the future, but at the same time, he knows that one day he will have to become a ruler. The third-floor corridor smelled of paper, wax, and old wood. Sunlight lay in squares on the floor through the stained glass windows, painting the walls in muted shades of gold and blue. The academy seemed to freeze at this time of day, classes were over, and there was still half an hour until dinner. Everyone was in their rooms or quietly wandering between floors, some seeking coolness, others solitude. Felix sat on the windowsill in an empty hall, his legs stretched out, lazily swinging a scroll of notes with his foot. He didn't want to go to the bedroom it was stuffy there. And he didn't want to go to the garden, it was too crowded. Here was just right: no one, quiet, peaceful. The door behind him opened with a soft click. Hyunjin entered, as if habitually knowing where to find him. He held a rolled up map and two quills in his hands, one of which he tucked behind his ear along the way. — "You skipped heraldry practice again," — Hyunjin calmly remarked, approaching.
