Legacy of Blackwood – Synopsis

Decades after Chris Blackwood reshaped the world, his empire stands unrivaled, with its influence stretching across nations. The Blackwood Union rules with absolute authority, dictating the course of history itself. But as the throne transitions to a new ruler, the balance of power shifts, and old alliances are tested.

Ethan Carter, the trusted right hand of Chris, has been named the new Supreme Ruler. With his appointment comes the weight of expectation, the burden of maintaining an empire built on dominance, and the whispers of betrayal lurking in the shadows.

Classic Blackwood and Christiana Blackwood—each with their own vision for the future—must decide where their loyalties lie. Skylar Blackwood, ever watchful, remains a force to be reckoned with, her ambitions far from fulfilled.

But as external threats rise and internal conflicts brew, the question remains: Will the Legacy of Blackwood thrive under new leadership, or will it collapse under the weight of its own power?

A tale of loyalty, ambition, and the price of absolute rule—Legacy of Blackwood begins.

Legacy of Blackwood

Ethan let Skylar's words settle in the air, but he didn't allow them to shake him. He turned back toward the massive glass window, overlooking the vast empire that now bent to his will. The towering structures, the disciplined order, the sheer power that pulsed through every corner of the Blackwood Union—it was all his doing.

"Chris is silent because he knows what I am doing is necessary," Ethan finally said, his voice steady. "He built this empire, but I am the one who will ensure it never falls."

Skylar scoffed. "You really believe that?"

Ethan turned to her. "Yes. And so does he. If he didn't, he would have interfered already."

Skylar took a step forward, eyes locked onto his. "Or maybe he's waiting. Watching. Letting you rise as high as you can... before the fall."

A dangerous glint flickered in Ethan's eyes. "Be careful, Skylar. You may be Blackwood by name, but your influence holds no power over me. I will not tolerate rebellion, even from you."

Skylar shook her head. "This isn't rebellion, Ethan. It's a warning." She turned to leave, but before stepping through the doors, she glanced back. "You think you're unchallenged. You think no one will dare rise against you. But absolute power has only one real outcome—it breeds its own destruction."

With that, she walked away, leaving Ethan standing in the glow of the empire he had built, yet suddenly, for the first time, he felt something he hadn't before.
