Now, more than twenty Carnivals since your arrival, the King is dead and the Queen’s sickness worsens each day. As the azure taint spreads in the kingdom and the Opalean Wars come to an end, it’s Mathias’s time to sit on the throne. Will the docile Prince become a kind King, a violent Monarch, or a ruthless Tyrant?
Will you have any say in it?
And how much will your relationship change? Develop your personality, see how your choices build, and change your bond with Mathias. It’s time to help him choose. Will your monarch Love the Guard or Be the King?
