It was beginning of springâ¦all winter the sea-surrounded kingdom of Cain tried desperately to raise the funds to build an army to match their only neighbors. The alliance that once kept them at piece was dying; the kingdom across the mountain pass was looking to expand, Cain having the best set up for trade with other countries by sea. It would have been easy to conquer them because they knew Cain was weak in the ways of defense. But alas the king just couldnât bring himself to do so. He liked his cushy court life, his fine silks, wines and whatnot. Waste money on an army?
So with the coming of spring a gift was sent to the neighboring kingdom with the King of Cainâs best wishes to keep peace for at least a few more years while they tried to work out their differences. That gift now stood in the middle of the grand throne room of the neighboring kingdom with two retainers had each side and one ambassador who read their kingâs will aloud. â⦠âTo show that Cain is willing to work with your noble kingdom I offer you this gift, my very son, Second Prince of Cain, Eiravan. It is my hope with this show of humility that faith will be trusted in us, peace may continue and a future alliance be drawn out. I eagerly await your reply, King Rraydon.â That is all he has to say, your majesty,â the ambassador bowed.
Eiravan stood unmoving for the past ten minutes since heâd been brought in. The prince had just celebrated his 16th birthday and we boy was he a pretty little think. Porcelain skin as fare as his mother, silvery, short cut hair that fell perfectly into his face with the slightest of breeze, and his eyes, a clear ocean blue that changed like the tide to complement his mood. Right now it was a murky blue, his eyes set forward on the king, mouth tightly pressed to keep quite. He was dressed elegantly, in robes of silvers and soft shades of aqua blues. Exotic and untouchableâ¦indeed, it was obvious he was bred for looks.
The prince had not come quietly; his retainers had quite a few bruises to attend to on their way home. But here he was perfectly well behaved as a prince should be. There really was no fighting this now; he knew he was now nothing more than a political tool between these feuding counties. The best he could do was survive and hope that his brother will be king soon enough. All the same, because of the little fits he threw out of spite the princeâs hands were locked in front of him with white leather, gold stitched cuffs. A white leather collar with gold stitching was placed around his neck as well; a mage from his kingdom made sure that passing the boarder was useless so long as it was locked around him.
