Commoners riot in the streets. Noble Houses scheme behind closed doors. And above it all, the Crown clings to power through sorcery, spectacle, and blood.

When a sudden death places young Prince Percivle on the throne, he inherits more than a kingdom he inherits his father's brutal legacy. The old king ruled through fear, and in his final letter, he leaves Percivle one command: Hold the throne. By any means.

But Percivle is no tyrant. Not yet. Surrounded by traitors, haunted by grief, and bound to a system built on violence, he must choose between the man he was raised to be and the monster he may need to become.

As rebel fires spark across the realm and war looms in the shadows, one truth becomes clear:
To lead this kingdom to peace, he may have to destroy everything keeping it alive.All Rights Reserved

(Moravia - Vothgaurd) I really liked the sound of Vothgaurd as it captured a more darker tone to what I'm looking for. The old name was an actual place and I didn't want to creat any confusion.

Burnout Reincarnation by LORDXVNV

Archmund Granavale was nine years old when he remembered his first life as a (former) "gifted kid". That world told him for years that he would grow up to do great things and change the world. Then he grew up, and none of that happened. In this new world, Omnio, he can't relive that. At first, he wants to use all of the useless knowledge and trivia - science fun facts, recipes, and self-help books - that a "gifted" kid absorbs to either revolutionize this pre-industrial fantasy world or achieve total freedom instead of being bound by the rules of the nobility. But that all changes once a Dungeon Storm opens a passage to the underworld in his home county, sparking an empire-wide gold rush for its magical gems. If he wants either a quiet life or a career at the forefront of industrialization, he has no choice but to navigate the complex social landscape of the military, the nobility, and the masters of magic. He'll take every advantage he can get - magic gems, independent wealth, connections and the status to make them - and the knowledge of a burned-out gifted kid. This time, he will change the world - or at very least the path of his life. A focus on discovering a world from the perspective of someone thrust into it -- scientifically, politically, magically. Updates 8-9 PM EST, 1500+ words, Monday-Friday.

Waltz of Steam and Magic by Frank21188

In a world where steam and magic intertwine, ancient treaties collapse under the pressure of a new order, and two drastically different civilizations collide, shaking the entire continent. On one side, an advanced industrial civilization fueled by the power of steam and machinery; on the other, an ancient kingdom built upon the magical elements and arcane forces of old. As these forces clash, the entire continent is thrown into unprecedented chaos, signaling a transformative era that no one is prepared for. At the heart of this upheaval is a war without smoke, a battle between technology and magic. With the rise of the Steam Revolution, mechanical technology and strange magic intertwine, showcasing endless possibilities. From the blazing heat of bullets to the cold shield of ice, from the precise firing of mechanical arms to the stunning force of magical chants, every moment of battle crackles with tension and energy. This is not just a clash of steel and elements; it is a struggle of intelligence and willpower, where the fate of the world hangs in the balance. Amid this turmoil, a young prince emerges from his homeland's palace, stepping onto a path destined to change the course of history. He is a brave and determined youth, burdened with the weight of his father's legacy and the responsibility to restore his kingdom, which faces both external invasion and internal strife. With his sword in hand and his father's expectations on his shoulders, he embarks on a quest to find answers and uncover the mysteries that lie ahead. However, the war in this world is far more complicated than it appears. The line between magic and machinery, between magic-wielders and engineers, between flying ships and steam-powered trains, is increasingly blurred. In the borderlands far from his kingdom, peaceful villages are destroyed by mechanical beasts, and ancient forests are disturbed by mysterious magical surges.
