Last in Line
A youngest prince schemes his way to the throne by removing those ahead of him
About This Story
In the Kingdom of Valdris, the throne passes by blood and birth order—no exceptions. Prince Kael, fourth-born and last in line, has watched his brothers fumble with power they inherited rather than earned. Now, with their father's health failing and the realm fracturing under frontier raids and noble scheming, Kael faces a choice: accept the fate dictated by an accident of birth, or find a way to reshape tradition from within. But in a court where ambition is treason and patience is virtue, how far will one prince go to prove that the youngest might be the only one fit to rule?
