In mid-August, in Steel City Seltodne, located in the eastern part of the Kingdom of Hattar, Marquis Ulysses had not had a good night's sleep for more than a month.
In recent times, the situation throughout the kingdom had been tumultuous, with changes occurring so rapidly that it was hard to believe.
Half a year ago, the lords of the kingdom were still choosing sides, discussing the succession of the heir to the throne. Ulysses, as a neutral party, wasn't particularly interested in who would become king, since the decrees from the capital had little impact on these border lords.
However, he never expected Prince Hattar to have the audacity to conspire with the notoriously infamous Wizard and even seize the capital, assassinating King Basel!
This act shocked the entire kingdom!
