CHAPTER 72
ALEXANDER- Azarios's step brother, king of Ambrose
Prince Baez- main antagonist of the story/ Alexander's brother
Empress Feyore- Alexander and Baez's mother
Quare- daughter of Feyore and sister of Alexander and Baez
Ambrose turned from the visage of a prospering nation, to one that had spears of iron pointed towards the throne. General Bezus's entire family was executed despite him relentlessly uttering that this was a conspiracy, at one point when he refused to accept his actions Prince Baez pulled out his tongue with hot iron to shut those lies.
The moment of shame that the young prince experienced could never be forgotten, certain leftover feelings that he had for his imperial mother and his elder brother Alexander were all forgotten and he felt it would have been better if he killed them along with his imperial father.
While the empire was in mayhem, the royalty were too fighting amongst themselves. Crown Prince Alexander did not had a family backing, with half of the imperial army perishing and the courtiers having rebellious thoughts there none that he could place his trust upon.
General Azarios was granted two hundred thousand soldiers yet now only had a quarter of it since they perished on Gaerin soil in the war. Thus the crown prince did not think twice and suggested a chorus of bone chilling words to his imperial mother Feyore.
"This son understands that mother adores and truly loves my imperial sister Quare. But imperial sister cannot bring stability to the regime and even though the words are bitter yet she is useless. Imperial sister has no matches that can help this one and neither has such abilities to be a talent.
Emperor father was an emotional wreck thus refused to wed imperial sister to Gaerin.....is mother a fool too?"
"Impudent! How can one push one's daughter to that lecherous prince Ragel? He is a beast known to play with countless of young females and kill them with cruelty. Alexander you-" A cold, indifferent laugh interrupted the Empress who stared at her son in astonishment, after all Quare was her own flesh and blood so how could she do it.
"King Qiza suggested that this prince will marry Gaerin's princess- Semeara and my sister will marry their crown prince. Yet now the Crown prince of Gaerin has a consort and the only person of direct imperial line who does not possess a wife is Prince Ragel. Mother must harden her heart since it was mother who conspired to kill imperial father.
To stop the war and have good relations with Gaerin.....imperial sister must be sacrificed."
