Dungeon of Pride, Laplace

The Kingdom of Blackthorn was not always like this. It was not the monolithic bastion of control and conformity that it had become under the rule of Gladion Astrid Onyx.

In the days of old, it was a realm just like any other kingdom, characterized by a balance between freedom and progress, where personal opinions and choices were respected, and governance was less draconian.

However, everything changed with the unexpected ascension of Gladion Astrid Onyx to the throne. That is to say, the Kingdom of Blackthorn was what it was now, a powerhouse among the third grade nations was all due to this man in front of him.

"Hehe, it's not a secret anymore that your kingdom wants to gobble the kingdom of Ellesmere up. However, if you continue with this Salami tactic by backing the Second Prince up to the throne, it will take years or even a decade to eat the meal that is the Kingdom of Ellesmere"
