Tyrants and Other Soft Creatures

Baron was a king. Great right? Not at his age.
To be a ruler of a country he didn't sign up for at 14 was what he least needed at the moment with all of his issues. With a raging war going on nearby and threatening to spread to his country's capital and hometown of Hazenburg, he feels a little-lot bit screwed over ever since he was six and his father died, making him king.
Who's going to even care about his mommy issues on the brink of war? Things only seem to be getting worse for him, and it requires his sacrifice to keep his mother- the queen, stable and prepared to rule. But how far is he willing to go to keep his mother ruling, and how far is she willing to push it?
