Sangria (A DSMP + Hermitcraft Kingdom au)

Prologue

The Castle was buzzing with excitement, and people were running all over the place. Tommy had to stop himself from using the word flying, as it wouldn't be true, the only person that could fly that was in the castle was Phil. Tommy knew that someone who Phil knew or was friends with was about to visit, but he didn't know the details. He just knew he was dressed in a lot of formal clothing, and he hated it. The person wouldn't even be here for another hour! Why did Tommy have to wear these scratchy clothes now? He didn't understand, but at least Tubbo was coming from the bakery to bring things, and maybe they could hang out.

About half an hour had passed by the time Tubbo had arrived. He had brought some baked goods with him, but neither of them was allowed to eat any until this mysterious guest arrived. They went up to Tommy's room and started to talk, but were quickly called downstairs. Tommy and Tubbo ran down the stairs, ready to get this over with so they could hang out, and not deal with all this royal stuff. They were greeted by a door almost being slammed in their face, and someone with Giant wings coming into the main hall

"GRIAN!"

The man with Giant wings slowed down, to look to where someone had yelled that, "YEAH?" He yelled back, not even noticing Tommy and Tubbo. A tall man with black hair and a mustache ran in behind the winged man, and paused to catch his breath.

"Grian, slow down!"

"Mumbo, I did slow down!"

"You left me running through the courtyard."

The winged man, Grian? Just laughed in response. Tommy and Tubbo looked at each other, and made to go back up the stairs. Just then, Phil's voice rang out through the halls.

"Tommy? Tubbo? The Guest is here!"

Grian turned around finally noticing the two, "Hello!" He said excitedly

"Could you at least pretend to be professional about this?" Mumbo whispered to Grian, Tommy and Tubbo didn't know if they were supposed to hear that.

"Professional? Mumbo, If anything, the royal family is far from that." Grian said aloud, as Phil walked down the hall. "Hey Phil!" Grian said, turning to face Phil.

"Your majesty," Mumbo said, bowing to Phil.

Phil laughed a bit, and bid Mumbo rise. "Formalities aren't necessary, Phil is just fine."

"So, how has the whole being the king thing been going?" Grian asked.

"Just fine, but we have a feast to get to!" Phil replied, waving Tommy and Tubbo to follow him.

Grian groaned quietly. It was easy to tell that he didn't like big feasts just by the look on his face.

"Grian, not a public one, just a small feast. Just a little one." Phil said.

"That's good, the public feasts were never fun." Grian replied.

Tommy blindly followed Phil into one of the smaller dining halls, and smiled at the memory of Techno getting his first sword in the hall, and right after getting the sword, cutting all of the tapestries in the room in half. He remembered how all the adults and servants were pissed and Phil was just laughing the entire time. It was a good memory, and he had to stop himself from laughing in the middle of the hall. Two guards had followed the group into the hall, Tommy didn't really know, well, anything about the first one, but the second one, Wilbur, who was fairly new, and fun to talk to on the days when everyone else was busy. He sat down at his normal space, and Tubbo sat down next to him. Tubbo wasn't really part of the royal family, but They were brothers in their minds, even if their blood didn't agree.

The group all sat down, Phil at the head, Techno and Grian sat beside him, Tommy sitting next to Techno, and Tubbo beside him. Grian's friend, Mumbo sat beside him, leaving one empty seat. Wilbur and the other guard, stood at the front and end of the table, and Tommy smiled at the luck of having Wilbur near him.

"So, Grian, what's its like being a traveler?" Phil said, breaking the still silence of the room.

"Fun, and Mumbo is confused at why I don't stay in the castle," Grian replied.

"You could literally wake up everyday and have everything taken care of for you," Mumbo replied, "yet you still decide that pretty much living on the road is better."

"I like to travel, and if I was still here, I would have to put in EFFORT into my day to day activities." Grian said, and Mumbo just facepalmed.

"So, how did you two meet?" Techno said he had never met Grian, but the two seemed incredibly close.

"I caused so much trouble that I got the attention of the king at the time," Grian replied, causing Phil to erupt into laughter.

Tommy looked around, as Grian began to talk, and noticed that Mumbo was looking at the other guard, and having a quiet conversation. He couldn't tell what Mumbo was saying, but it seemed like him and the guard already knew each other. Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, and the door opened.

"XISUMA!" Grian yelled, and Xisuma stepped into the room, smiling.

"I didn't know the missing royal was here." Xisuma teased, nudging Grian.

Grian sighed, and nudged Xiusma back, and Xisuma gave a piece of paper to Phil, and then turned to head out.

Tommy, Techno, and Tubbo turned to Grian, "missing royal?" Tommy said, genuinely confused.

"I mean, officially I am, but me and Phil are only half brothers," Grian said, not liking the sudden attention.

Tommy nodded, and Xisuma walked out, the doors making a soft thud as they closed. Tommy started talking to Tubbo. Before Tommy knew it, dinner was over, and the plates were being cleared. Phil tapped his glass, and everyone looked at him.

"I have an announcement." Phil stated, and then continued, "I'm stepping down as King. Grian, you would be next in line, but you can always refuse."

"Yeah, being king doesn't sound fun, plus I don't even have any royal blood." Grian said.

"So Technoblade, that would make you the next king," Phil said, and turned to Techno.

"I mean, I'm against the government, but if I'm at the head, I control it, so sure." Techno said, his monotone voice showing hints of sarcasm.

Phil stood up and raised his glass. "A Toast, to King Technoblade!" It would likely be a few weeks before Techno would be officially crowned king, but Phil was looking forward to his newfound free time. Little did the people in the room know, someone was watching.
