The Ruler's Identity

"Why am I alone?" The Ruler repeated Estelle's question, not knowing how to reply. "What do you mean by that?"

Estelle calmed down her nerves as she was somewhat frightened to ask this question all along. She formulated her speech in order to lay the matter down carefully. She was still afraid that she might trigger something off.

"Well.. how.. did you become the Ruler of Eterna?" Estelle asked, prying into the matter.

It was a logical question. A lot of things didn't make sense for the Estelle who had tried to find out more about the Eterna.

With each piece of information she unraveled, the more the displeasure and shock she amassed.

Within her knowledge, there were some ways in which one could become a Ruler.

First, if you were born into royalty, you could go through the succession process.

Second, if you could conquer a kingdom, you may choose to sit on the throne's position.
