Cursed. You were cursed
Your eyes were made to kill. Everyone that looked at you in the eyes would die... That was a problem since you were the prince of one of the biggest empires in the continent... Rākha, also known as the black empire, an empire built from the ashes of fallen kingdoms. Even if you were the only prince of the empire your condition didn't allow you to be recognized as the heir.
Your mother died when you were born, at least that's what everyone believes, actually your curse killed her, she looked into your eyes and that was the last thing she ever did. Your father, the emperor, hid the truth... he lied everyone, he told everyone you were blind and forced you to cover your eyes... you just had to hide yourself
One night you decided to escape from the palace, desperate to find a place you bumped into a stranger and the clothe covering your eyes fell to the floor... he looked at you in the eyes, you were ready to see him die but instead he just seemed mesmerized by your eyes... the eyes that only he was allowed to look at
