In a world of silken gowns, whispered betrayals, and fading titles. But his smile is the most dangerous of them all.

    In the midst of the invasion, imperial soldiers had been sent to search for the fabled Esters, mythical beings born from magic. For a millennia, the Esters possessed great power, so much so that mankind had the tendency to corrupt it for their own selfish desires. In their conquest for power, the War of the Magites took place. As centuries passed, the use of magic became history with the rise of technological advancements by crafting alternate resources: light, steam, oil and cryatal being the most prominent to power homes, household appliances and much more. In an era with great technology at their disposal, who would seek out for a glimpse of magic when the Empire is at its peak? The tales of magical creatures, divine powers, the mystics, the War of the Magites and the quest to find these entities were nothing but a mere legend. Is there anyone verily foolish enough to repeat that mistake?

    Jack is the king's jester, a strange young man who always wears a smile-even when he's bleeding, crying, or standing on the edge of death. He doesn't care about honor, guilt, shame, or what others think of him. He has only one simple wish: To live in peace. But when a joke about the queen turns into a death sentence, Jack decides to give the royal court one final performance. A performance they will never forget. Now a wanted man, Jack must escape a kingdom that wants him dead while strange creatures lurk beyond its borders. Because in a world filled with kings, monsters, and cruel people... sometimes the fool is the only one who truly understands the meaning of peace.

    Foolish remarks and acts, was this all it was? A cry for help, a heed for trust. A smile of wealth or a snicker for the tricks laid out as such. Oh, how poor this court jester was? Like a masquerade, no one knew what it's true feeling was. Not even the jester itself knew what to feel when it must. A feeling of hope dispaired quick, even pain it longs just to see itself once more. Oh what if the court jester was simply a deja vu? [One shot]

    Prince Everett Alexander of Valen has spent his entire life surrounded by people who tell him exactly what he wants to hear. Yet, that is the one thing he never wanted. Plagued by sleepless nights and the weight of a future he never chose, Everett begins wandering the palace long after everyone else has gone to bed. There, in the quiet hours before dawn, he keeps crossing paths with the one person he never expected to notice. The court jester. Behind the painted smile and foolish costume is a man who seems oddly untouched by the rules of court. Sharp-tongued, endlessly observant, and impossible to predict, the jester has a habit of saying exactly what no one else dares. As unlikely conversations turn into a dangerous friendship, Everett begins to wonder who the man truly is. Because every kingdom has its secrets. And some voices are far more easy to follow than others. A/N Like many writers, I don't create in complete isolation. During the writing of this story, I occasionally used AI as a brainstorming tool to explore ideas and overcome writer's block. The story, characters, and writing remain entirely my own.
