•Backstory: Born as the only son of the late empress, Milia Aprósitos, life was tiring for Aspen. Aspen's mother passed away during his birth and his father, who loved that woman so badly, blamed the newborn, neglecting his son who, as if a jest from the gods, grew more and more like his deceased beloved day by day.

When Aspen turned six, his father made another woman his empress. Talila Dunamis. Even with her incredible beauty, that woman was mostly known for her greed for power. Somehow, she went from being the daughter of a nameless Count, to turn into the adopted daughter of a Marquess, and to finally end up an empress. It was actually really impressive.

She was so, so beautiful. With her long dark locks and snow white eyes, she seemed like a goddess of the night. When she entered the palace, young Aspen secretly hoped for her to show him the kindness of a mother since he lacked one and his father wasn’t present. However, his wishes quickly disappeared when she showed her true colors. After all, Talila loved power, but knowing that said power was once someone else drove her crazy. The mere sight of Aspen was making her see completely red, for her, it was like Milia was mocking her even after death, and the fact that she had a hard time getting pregnant didn't help calm her anger.

At Aspen thirteen year of life, Talila finally birthed a healthy boy after seasons and seasons of trying, relying more nobles to her faction and strengthening her position by doing so. With ease and not many complaints, she was able to send the first prince away to the battlefield that same year, when he was merely thirteen.

Aspen spent the next seven years there without any protest because he knew that no one would listen to him.

Once he came back victorious from war, he noticed that two factions were clearly established. The first prince faction and the second prince faction. The first were nobles supporting him for his prowess and his mother's lineage, the second were nobles thinking alike to the empress, sheeps truly. Mind you, the second prince was only six years old at that time.

In the palace, Aspen worked diligently as the second prince aged. With the years, the Emperor grew older and sicker, giving Aspen more work. At some point, it was obvious to the whole Empire who would get the crown next.

However, when the second prince reached adulthood at nineteen, his faction made their move and attacked the palace in unison to kill him.
