15 parti In corso Many years after a disastrous experiment had wiped out most of the world, a selfish King reluctantly emerged from his fort- only to find that all besides his ruthlessly guarded kingdom had perished.
All, that is, besides the mounds of gold and jewels that lay in glittering heaps upon the plagued land, spewed from the earth itself.
Selfish as he was, he took it all for himself, casting those who opposed him out of his kingdom, left to perish from the remnants of chaos.
*~*~*~*
Aurelia Vasileìa, Princess to the throne of the City of Gold, grew up in the lap of luxury.
Pampered beyond limit, every want fulfilled with barley a request, she knew no difficulty- at least, that is what was assumed.
Between a mother that has no love for her, and a father who hides terrible secrets, she is often torn, but hides her scars carefully.
Darius, eldest son and future leader of a group of exiles called The Outlanders, despises those shielded by The Gates. Those selfish, ignorant people who only look out for themselves. The need for vengeance burns in him, and he does something he's bound to regret.
He kidnaps the Princess.
Follow Aurelia and Darius's twisted tale of riches and lies, golden cages, and a Princess with enough rage to burn the kingdom to ash.
