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

Christiana sat in her private chamber, her fingers drumming against the armrest of her chair. The news had already spread—her father had returned Ethan's crown to Skylar.

She clenched her jaw, barely suppressing her anger.

For years, she had stood by, learning, watching, becoming the enforcer of Blackwood's rule. She had executed orders without question, crushed rebellions before they could breathe. And yet, despite everything, Chris had chosen Skylar over Ethan, over the system.

Classic stepped in, his expression unreadable as he studied her. "I assume you've heard?"

Christiana exhaled sharply. "Of course I have."

She met his gaze, her voice unwavering. "It was a mistake."

Classic let out a short laugh. "A mistake? Christiana, Ethan overstepped. He forgot his place. What did you expect?"

"I expected discipline, not favoritism," she snapped. "The empire thrives on order. Yet, because she is his wife, she remains untouchable?"

Classic shook his head. "It's not about favoritism. It's about power balance. Removing her crown would mean challenging Chris himself. Are you prepared for that?"

She looked away, her fingers tightening into fists.

Classic sighed. "Listen to me, Christiana. I know you feel sidelined, but this isn't a war you need to fight."

Her eyes flashed. "Then which war should I fight, Classic? If I don't draw a line now, when will I?"

He held her gaze for a long moment before speaking. "Just be careful."

Classic turned and left, the door closing behind him.

Christiana sat there, staring at the wall, her thoughts racing.
