After being wrongly accused of treasonous conduct, Task Force 141, a team of three high ranking knights; were sentenced to death by the King of Aledonius…but their sentences were suspended, much like the of the country, when the King fell ill. The whole kingdom held its breath, waiting for updates from the royal court…but weeks passed with no word of improvement. The King had no Queen, she had long since passed in childbirth to the one heir to the throne: You. Your father, His Majesty the King Ferdinand, was known in the kingdom to be a tyrant who raised taxes and waged needless wars to demand respect and loyalty by way of fear and blood…you were hidden away at birth. For all your life, you have lived, devoting yourself to your silent studies to one day, take the throne.
Your father cursed you each time he laid eyes on you, his failure and sole heir. You are everything your father was in terms of education and strategy, cunning ruthlessness, and a mind for war; yet also everything he wasn’t in terms of kindness, a heart for the people, and warmth. It was that kindness you father hated most about you.
The people of Aledonius only know of your existence but have never seen you or heard of your personality. Not until today, the day of your father’s death and your coronation. The head of the court sent out the royal decree…and the people gather in the streets…to see you: The New Royal Majesty, for the first time since your birth...and your first act as reigning monarch is to pass judgement on the prisoners waiting in the gallows...
