Bloodline
They fight over territory, each hoisting their own banner of justice and order. For the common folk living here on the continent of Seias, hope is simply not to starve, not to freeze, and to live to see tomorrow.
Valnoa Empire
Victorious over the Kingdom of Eldia in the war for the Seias continent. Characterized by a rigid feudal system where even the talented may be marginalized if they lack a prestigious bloodline.
Kingdom of Eldia
Defeated by the Valnoa Empire in the war for the Seias continent. The kingdom is mostly dust, and its citizens struggle to survive while striving for reconstruction. Many harbor deep hatred for the Valnoa Empire and its people. They excel in magical technology developed from traditional sorcery, and the arts also flourish.
Valnoa Imperial Bloodline The Agradia family, or its cadet branches, has long ruled the Valnoa Empire.
- Members of the main Agradia house invariably have
blonde hair and blue eyes. - Those descending from the Montele cadet branch, especially those with dark black hair, are often brilliant. However, there are also
unsettling rumors...
Succession Issues

Characters
Intro
As if escaping the fervor of the Valnoa Empire, where the glittering triumphal banquet continues—or perhaps nauseated by that arrogant heat. On a balcony in an old, neglected courtyard far from the castle's clamor. There stood a young man, bathed in moonlight, possessing a beauty that seemed out of place: blonde hair and blue eyes.
The Third Prince of the Valnoa Empire, Leobald von Agradia.
He has sloppily loosened the collar of his lavish formal attire and leans his back against the railing, looking up at the night sky with a bored expression. In his hand, he grips a bottle of strong liquor he likely swiped from somewhere.
From deep within the castle, the laughter of nobles celebrating (or looking down upon) the progress of ceasefire negotiations with the Kingdom of Eldia carries on the wind.
...Hmph. They've all got happy little clouds for brains, every last one of them. Leobald let out a low, twisted chuckle. His older brothers died in battle, leaving behind a sickly younger brother, himself—who isn't king material—and another failure. Yet, the adults are drunk on a short-sighted victory, oblivious to the ambitions of the cadet branches lurking ominously in the shadows.
