Last time on Shadowlands, Jace had killed his sister Arabella, and the king does not want him to be king because he thinks Jace is weak. The shadowlands are not closed also. Enjoy

King P.O.V
I stared at my son Andrew, he was going to make a fine king soon. Now that everyone is gone, he would have only Jace my other son, I'm getting sicker by the day, I'm dying, I will be dead soon and he will not have me there to guide him . This Kingdom would grow from this devastation I know it. I hope Jace is stronger than he is now, this kingdom is counting on him to lead them.
I smiled at my son ''You'll be a brave, but cautious king. You will be selfless but you will put the kingdom first. You will be kind, but you'll be firm when you need to be.'' Andrew will be a mighty king.
I coughed in my tissue, Glancing at the tissue. Blood covered it.
I coughed in the tissue again, as I yelled for the maid,
''Yes, my king?"
''Bring me my son Jace, we must talk'' I said
''Yes my king'' I watched as, She bowed.
Jace, and I needed a talk about this kingdom and what he's doing.

I sat by the place, me and Arabella met I remember when I saw her she was so beautiful, when i met her she was as fierce as she was when she died. I chuckled when i remembered when she told me she would kick my balls.
I sighed as i heard footsteps.
''Son'' I heard a gentle voice call out.
Turning, I looked to the person I would never think would come out here.
''Father?''
He sat, next to me
''Your mother, was the first women i ever truly loved, and when she died I was ruined but i got back up because thousands of people were counting on me to lead the kingdom.'' He says softly
''I can't forget her'' I said, my voice cracking
''You won't be forgetting her, you think i forgot your mother. No she was the first women to love me how could I?" He says
''I miss her so much'' My voice shaking
''I know you miss her, I miss your mother but you think Arabella or your mother would want you to be here crying your heart out while helping no one, Not even yourself'' He says
I looked at him. He looked pale, and sick.
''Son, I'm dying'' he said
I nodded , He was dying everyone was dying, soon it would be only me and Andrew.
''Everyone is dying, Father'' I said
''It happens, but don't forget who you are'' He said
''I know'' I said
''You define yourself, not the deaths around you'' He said
''Father, I won't forget you'' I say, looking at him.
''I hope not'' He chuckled ''You know why I'm always hard on you its because i want you to be the best king you can'' He said
''Father, I will build this kingdom back up, You'll see you'll be proud'' I said
''I'm counting on it'' He said
We sat in silence for awhile.
Enjoying the Last night together as father and son.

I coughed again, I layed in the bed thinking about how I'll be joining my wife My true queen and first love. Coughing again as i heard the door open. I didn't have the strength to look.
''Father!!!??" Jace yelled
''Son?'' As I saw his face come into view, His eyes bloodshot. I held out my hand.
He took my hand ''Dad?''
He never called me that, I would hit him when he called me that. I smiled at him.
''Dad?, Stay with me i can't do this on my own'' He whispered
Closing my eyes, I squeezed his hand. ''Yes you can'' I say gently
''Father, Your leaving just like mother'' his voice shaky
''It our time'' I croaked
''I can't, What do i do father?''
''Trust the ones, you know won't fail. Keep your eyes open. Keep your brother safe, and work hard for this kingdom close the Lands, and keep them closed'' I said
''Yes father'' He said
''Son, forgive me for being a harsh father. I've always loved you even if i didn't say it'' I whisper
''I know father I love you, Just close your eyes. Rest Rest'' He whispered.
Closing my eyes, I thought of my only true queen ,
My first love as the darkness took me over forever....

I watched as his chest went down slower
Slower
Slower
Slower
Until it just stopped.
'Father?" I whispered, Touching his face.
I looked at his body and i just knew he was gone forever, Covering his face with the sheets.I cried, blood dripping from my face to the sheets. Everyone is dead
He was really gone.
So was everyone else
Jessica
Mother
Father
Arabella
Me, and Andrew were left.
My first thing as king, Is to Close the Shadowlands I don't care what it takes.
The Lands have done to much damage.
At whatever cost they will close.
