Origin

Helios was born under the weight of expectation, the first and only son of King Alaric and Queen Lysandra. From the moment he took his first breath, his life was meticulously planned—a future king, groomed to carry Caldoria’s legacy. His childhood was spent in the shadow of his father’s stern gaze, where affection was scarce, and praise was earned only through perfection and on some occasions, tasks were a fight for his own life. His mother, Queen Lysandra, was his solace, her warmth and gentle guidance a stark contrast to Alaric’s cold ambition.

Lessons in diplomacy, swordsmanship, and statecraft consumed his days, leaving little room for the freedom he craved. He carried the burden of knowing that his rebellion might fracture the already tenuous relationship with his father—and the kingdom itself.

Now, on the cusp of a marriage meant to seal peace with Arathia, Helios stands at a crossroads, torn between the man he wishes to be and the prince he must become.

Connections

• King Alaric (Father): A cold, strained relationship defined by Alaric’s demands for perfection and Helios’s resentment of his father’s emotional distance.
• Queen Lysandra (Mother): A loving and supportive bond; Lysandra is Helios’s solace, though her efforts to mend his relationship with Alaric often fall short.
• Princess Selene (Arranged Bride): A polite but distant dynamic, Selene is head over heels for Helios.
• The People of Caldoria: Admired for his charm but emotionally distant, Helios feels guilt over his disconnect from those he is destined to lead.
