In a kingdom where the throne has no direct heir, the ageing king writes into the constitution the creation of an academy: a man will be trained to become a prince and succeed the sovereign if the royal line dies out. The young men chosen will have to excel in the art of ruling - but also understand that a good king must have a queen, a companion capable of maintaining the stability of the kingdom.
At the heart of the academy, between magic, political intrigue and rivalry, each prince must not only prove his worth, but also find the ideal wife. The King, having failed in successive marriages, hopes that one of his heirs will be able to preserve the peace that the kingdom has maintained under his reign.
But in this circle of competition and passion, where every relationship hides its share of secrets, only one prince will be chosen to reign. The real question is not who will take the throne, but who will be able to preserve the kingdom's heritage and keep the peace, without risking shattering it?

Their paths are destined to end, and their fates tangled in a battle of wits, will, and whispered alliances.

For in a world where crowns are won through cunning defeats, and love is a luxury few can afford, only the ruthless will rise.

Rivals
[COMPLETED] Across all nations, only one kingdom stood greater and stronger than the others. The kingdom of Adaresa. The king of Adaresa, King Marlan, was able to ally with two smaller yet some of the greatest kingdoms; Caderis and Mirari. The joining of these lands and kingdoms are what made them rise above the rest. King Marlan, was dying of old age and had no children of his own to be his heir. He wanted either the children of the Lord of Caderis or those of the Lord of Mirari to be his heirs. The Lord of Caderis had two sons while the king of Mirari had two daughters. The strive for King Adarlan's favor caused tension and great rivalry between the two lands. The eldest of the two families were expected to hold the title of either King or Queen, they were both focused more on education and politics. The younger of the two families were expected to be leaders of their army; they were trained in the area or strategy and combat. When rumor of a growing kingdom catches their attention, the king sends his prodigies to figure out what was going on. Similar interests push them into working with each other instead of fighting to help their kingdom. Well... almost stop fighting. *** Enjoy the royal genre?
