[ Prince Taeyong's Quarters ]
━━━━━━━━━
Taeyong was young, but he was old enough to know that his life would end by the time the sun rose the next morning. From the minute he was born, it was already determined by the gods that he wouldn't live past fifteen―he only recently turned fourteen.
Taeyong's mother would have been proud of how maturely he accepted his fate ...if she were alive.
Concubine Yun died from the hands of an executioner, and Taeyong almost certain his fate was just as tragic. Except, rather than infidelity, Taeyong's crime was that of a prince who could only sit by idly as the king slowly led the kingdom of Aroke to the pits of poverty and famine.
Of course, the king didn't pray for the goddess above Aroke to withdraw her blessings of endless bounty. But what the king did do was lounge comfortably on his throne and enjoying fine five-coursed meals while the rest of the kingdom starved.
The king made several mistakes, and one of them was trusting Kim Heechul, the one who sent a mob of rogues to set a blaze to Regiis Villa and who guided Chancellor Park Leeteuk in his path to seize control of the throne.
Taeyong choked on his breath and fell to the ground as the toxic fumes of smoke invaded his lungs. He gave up trying to call for help a while ago. All his guards were dead, his other siblings' status unknown and his door blocked by the crumbling excess of the roof above his head.
He would die alone, consumed by flames of lingering regret.
