FORGED IN THE PURSUIT OF SELF-PRESERVATION, refuge, and vengeance, the history of Annelida (where our story takes place), is a small but distinctive country with an extraordinary and divine history that once upon a time, housed twelve realms governed by magical Rulers.
On the eve of a blue moon, a Royal Seeker named Ozocerite had foreseen a terrible vision. The next morning, he revealed to his King. “War is coming. And with it, Death will extinguish the monarchies…leaving only one standing.”
The Royal Seeker’s troubling vision had shattered the very foundation of peace throughout the twelve realms. As his young and ambitious King-Orrin of the Royal Household of the Harriman-believing, the prophecy was about himself, became the first King to

His name was King David of the Royal Household of the Callaghan: a tall, burly man with eyes, blacker than night. His pale and wrinkly skin was well-worn with scars detailing the toil in which his demanding and strenuous life has brought him.
During the war, King David married a noblewoman name, Elisabeth.
Queen Elisabeth was a beautiful and nurturing woman that sadly passed away after giving birth to their seventh child, Princess Isibeal. King David mourned the Queen’s death for many years, before taking another wife: but tragedy had befallen the royal couple within months of their nuptials. Saddened by his second wife’s sudden passing, the King vowed never to wed again.
Although the King was born a ‘Draíochta’-a person born without magic, his shrewd and cunning ways made him more powerful and dangerous than those born with it.
At the tender age of fourteen, a newly crowned King David raged a long and perilous war, coinciding with the Battle of the Lands, against King Talon of the Royal Household of the Camion-one of Annelida twelve royal families: after it was discovered, King Talon had poisoned his father, King Albert

From a young age, King Caxton has had a complicated relationship with his late father. On his twenty-first birthday, two years after the wars had ended. His father discovered he had married an untitled maiden in secret. The forbidden union resulted in Caxton being stripped of his royal title and banish from his father’s court.
Three years past, before the two reconciled: with King Phillip reinstating Caxton’s royal title and officiating his marriage in a lavish affair that lasted over three months-each months representing one year Caxton was in banishment. Grateful for his son’s forgiveness, King Phillip additionally bestowed Caxton with riches, titles, and lands of his own choosing.
Caxton declined his father’s offerings, choosing instead to live out his days in the countryside, where he established a small farming village with his wife’s family.
Two years later, the news of King Phillip’s fragile state had spread throughout the
In 2 Samuel the narrative shifts to the reign of David as he rises above Saul’s son Ish-bosheth to become the king, first of Judah and then of all the tribes of Israel (5:1–4). The book records David’s wars of conquest including the capture of Jerusalem and the relocation of the ark of the covenant to the City of David (6:1–19). But the author also records David’s failures: his adultery with Bathsheba (11:1–26), Absalom’s rebellion (15:1–18:30), Sheba’s revolt (20:1–26), and the disastrous census (24:1–25). Like all the prophetic writers, the author presents a portrait of his historical figures from the perspective of their faithfulness to God’s covenant.
As future king and the hero who slew Goliath, David’s life had star quality. Like public figures today, there was interest in his life. News today spreads faster, but the news about the famous always discovered by the people.
The civilization he meant to build has transmogrified to a forest thick with traps" (121). Not only has he lost his muscle, he's lost his peace of mind as well. The king has become trapped by everything he worked so hard to achieve. His bling, his solid rep, his fantastic crib, and even his methods of ruling become a target for younger, ambitious warlords. His beautiful wife, a peace offering from a young and resentful lesser king, might become a point of contention in the future.
When his wife died, it was very surprising that he had managed to move on with his life and continued his duty as a King, especially when she was his first wife and they had been married for 36 years.
In 1613, after a scandalous divorce, Robert Carr married Frances Howard, daughter of the Earl of Suffolk. The source reveals “The King’s acceptance of this behaviour damaged the reputation of the Court.” This suggests James I’s weakness, as he did not maintain a professional attitude as King to prevent such unacceptable behaviour due to his favouritism towards Carr.

Things happen for a reason and King was born at a time that needed him and his visions.
It was understood that if he could make those ideas a reality, people would start to know his name and he would gain a reputation of glory and would also be able to instill fear into other societies around his. Therefore, he would be able to live in peace without fear another army attempting to overthrow his rule (Perello 1). The need for fame has a bigger significance than just boastful men wanting to have an impressive reputation to their peers and even to people farther away. There are ulterior, more intelligent motives, which make that particular concept, fame over everything, a little more understandable to people who were not alive during that time period. However, the king gaining fame is still regarded as more important than the lives of his men and soldiers who were actually the ones who fought for and made that fame possible.
It is often said that scepter is a dangerous and attractive thing in the history. Therefore,there are a lot of kings and nobles who fight because of the throne.Take Macbeth for example,he is a typical example to improve this.At first,he is a kind man,but he wants to be a king.To achieve this ambition, he kills a lot of people. On the way to the throne, Macbeth loses track of a lot of things include human nature. It demonstrates throne is a deadly attraction and to be a king is difficult. Nonetheless, there is a strong king that I like to refer to in the Lion King who is Scar. All of them want to become a king and they come true this ambition at last by using different strategies. For the different ways and personality,I have to say that
