The 13-year-old Prince of Arnos, Cassen, is faced with his father's death. Cassen inherits a kingdom, a war with the neighboring nation of Khodia, seven plotting barons, and a grieving family. He must prove to the court that he can become a capable King and prove to himself that he is worthy of the title.
Arnos and the surrounding territory was inspired by the diverse cultures and geography of the Mediterranean basin. The story includes themes of adolescence, grief, compromise, self-doubt, and features subtle hints of fantastical elements throughout.
Also, I am dreadful at naming my chapters, comment below each chapter what you think it's title should be, I'll replace the chapter title when I find a suggestion that I think works well.

The Crown and a Lighthouse
In the modern kingdom of Northaven, tradition and progress often clash, and no one feels this tension more than Brayden, the spirited grandson of the King. After the sudden death of his father, the heir to the throne, Brayden finds himself thrust into the spotlight as the next in line. Grappling with grief and the weight of expectation, Brayden must navigate a world that demands perfection from its future king while hiding his own truth-he is gay in a monarchy that has never openly embraced change. Haunted by heartbreak from a past relationship that shattered his trust, Brayden embarks on a royal tour of Northaven, hoping to reconnect with the people and find his own sense of purpose. His journey leads him to Aldenford, a quaint seaside village where he meets Elias, a talented craftsman with a steady hand and a heart full of quiet strength. Through chance encounters, late-night texts, and shared stories, the two forge an unexpected connection that challenges Brayden's guarded world. But life as a royal is never simple. As Brayden and Elias grow closer, their bond faces intense scrutiny from a kingdom steeped in tradition. Brayden must confront not only his duty to the crown but also the deeply rooted prejudice that threatens to overshadow his happiness. With the added pressure of his father's legacy and the challenges of being a gay royal in the modern age, Brayden is torn between the man he longs to be and the future his family expects of him. Set against a backdrop of royal pageantry, quiet seaside towns, and a society grappling with progress, A Crown and a Lighthouse is a poignant tale of love, loss, and resilience. It is a story about finding courage in the face of adversity, honoring one's own truth, and learning to shine even when the world wants you to dim your light. Will Brayden choose the crown and the expectations of his lineage, or will he follow the guiding light of love and chart his own path?
