This is the story of the FitzRoy Perry clan and the middle european country of Almondy. That country that has been nestled between the Germanies and France since its founding in 1066. Less attention having been paid to Almondy overtime than England for Almondy only ever achieved the status of Grand Principality instead of Kingdom despite being the very center of Europe and the highway between the countries whose greatest ambitions were control of the entire continent.
We open as the Grand Prince is ailing and plots are afoot to ensure who shall ultimately succeed him. With the greatest powers of Europe on the brink of war after Victoria has died and the dynasties where her children and grandchildren reign each eyeing a piece of the pie that might mean that Almondy will be carved up.

Their already powerful kingdom wasn't enough, and they began to attack other kingdoms, taking them down one by one. Nearly half of the planet was destroyed and and thousands were dead, so they built a wall to hide the horrific sight from their subjects. But the once happy couple fought constantly, both wanting to be stronger than the other. They grew a burning hatred for one another and went their separate ways. So, once again, they built a wall. Those originally from Christopher's kingdom went on his side, and those from Elizabeth's on her side. All you need to know is that that family is pure evil. Promise me, Olivia, you will never associate yourself with the Daltons." I sigh, looking at the ground, "I promise, Uncle."
