Prince of the Magic

The king to be

My name is Gilcarist. One day, they'll make me king of Cardoroth. I'm young, and I don't know what I want in life, but it isn't that. I'd rather learn magic, and free the talent within me. I could use it to make the world a better place. But no one listens. So, this I swear. Before death sweeps me into oblivion, the world shall hear my voice.

The warrior who was

My name is Brand. I sit as regent on Gilcarist's throne. I teach him how to rule, but more than that - I show him how to protect himself, for he has enemies who have hated him since before he was born. The blood in his veins makes it so.

The sorceress who would destroy them both

My name is Ginsar. Brand killed my brother. I will have retribution, and the boy Gilcarist will be the instrument of my revenge. No sorcery is too dark, no price too high. I shall destroy them both - one for what he did and one for who he is. And if I topple the world into ruin and flame with them, who shall say I am wrong?
