CHAPTER 42. Locked In

  Learning about the history of royalty in all the different kingdoms was such? a tedious thing to do when I was younger. Naturally, I enjoyed reading and learning new things but at some point I came to realise the amount of death and betrayal involved when you become involved in politics and the throne.

  Jealous relatives are often the cause of many deaths. Just in my own kingdom’s history alone there have been five cases of emperors or to-be emperors dying under mysterious circumstances. If I consider the history of noblemen and assassinations then that list would be too long to even form.
