The King And His Son
By @Efewillbefine
King Theodore of Minerva, a man burdened by duty and an unyielding will, faces his greatest challenge not on the battlefield, but within the walls of his own castle. His son, Prince Henry, has just come of age, his beauty blossoming under the austere watch of the court. Henry, gifted with an innate charisma that rivals his father's strategic genius, feels the suffocating weight of royal expectations and a deeper, unspoken longing. As whispers of a looming war with the rival kingdom of Volkov grow louder, Theodore finds himself increasingly drawn to his son, a magnetic pull that defies all decorum and reason. This forbidden desire threatens to unravel not only their family but the very fabric of Minerva itself. Can a kingdom survive when its rulers are consumed by a love deemed an abomination?

By @Brandyn Lowe
Wyatt, a forgotten prince of Hylissia, lives under the shadow of a dying king and an unnamed successor. Unbeknownst to him, the dormant powers of every State Guardian Deity reside within his bloodline, a divine legacy awaiting its awakening. When the sacred Season Ceremony approaches, meant to bestow a fraction of a single deity's power upon the chosen, Wyatt feels a dangerous stir within. The kingdom teeters on the brink of civil war, with ambitious nobles vying for the throne and ancient evils stirring in the wildlands. Wyatt must not only awaken his unprecedented power but also navigate a treacherous court and a prophecy hinting at a far greater destiny. Can he master the untamed divine essence within to save Hylissia from itself, or will he succumb to the very power meant to protect?
