The peace that formerly reigned in Terra Nova has eroded, now little more than a memory. War ravages the continent. Disputes divide kingdoms; ideals divide families. The quest for power consumes absolutely and indiscriminately. None are immune to its allure.
Who will rise and who will fall? Only time—and ambition—will tell.

Change in how times flows. Was 4 IC seasons, now only 2 IC seasons per 1 OOC year.
5 whole years of Heir Apparent goodness! When I started the site, I knew I was hunkering down for the long haul, but I never could have predicted the numerous twists and turns this roleplay site has seen. Hundreds of plots, characters, and members have come and gone, all leaving marks on the site. I am so very thankful for those who have invested. Because you keep coming back, keep getting on, and keep writing, Heir Apparent has the legacy it does today. Three cheers to us!

Akagi wields a saga enchanted naginata, that when touched allows the wielder to cast bright red orbs that explode on contact. Akagi can cast single orbs or produce up to four orbs in a powerup to cast at once for a bigger explosion.
Akagi had sent a slave to retrieve his wife and have her escorted to their chambers, he would wait proudly for her. He was very excited to say the least, excited to share with her her requested enchantments. Three boxes of various sizes and wrapped in Nevermere blue bows waited with him on their shared bed.

Ophelia had grown comfortable with the presence of slaves. Before they had bothered her—after all, it was not the Nevermerean way—but now she hardly noticed them. They were functional objects, like any other piece of furniture or kitchen instrument. Maybe that was just the way her mind had justified the change in her sensibilities.
She her heart fluttered with girlish excitement as she drew close to their chamber. There could be any number of reasons why Akagi had summoned her, one of them making her cheeks blush with a pleasant rose color. But when she opened the door, she saw…three boxes. Three boxes on her bed that had her raise an eyebrow with a smile.

Akagi lit up upon seeing his Felita and when she saw the gifts and the smile that graced her face was seen the man was practically floating! He moved to meet her in the middle of the room and took her in his arms pulling her close, he kissed her perhaps the most passionately he had since before their small marriage problems. As he kissed her his hands traced lightly from across her back, over the familiar curve of her hips, fingers brushing up her arms, and cup both sides of her cheeks....before he broke the kiss, smiling into her eyes as he saw his reflection.
"I have, please open them and start with this one first," taking her hand he lead her to the present indicated the far left which was the shoes.

Ophelia blushed like a schoolgirl as Akagi held her close. She’d heard so many horror stories over the years of what it was to be a wedded woman. Many if not all of them were born out in reality, as she’d witnessed in Kennet’s unraveling. But not her. Of all the accomplishments Kennet had seized that she couldn’t touch, Ophelia had one over her. A marriage of importance but also—despite all odds—love.
With hesitant curiosity, she took the box from Akagi. Unwrapping it, she found a dainty box with a ladylike pair of shoes. Ophelia turned them in hands, looking up at Akagi for an explanation with a smile.

Akagi was beaming as she observed the beautiful pair of shoes and he definitely didn't hesitate to explain indicating to his own shoes, "Elogant boots of silence," Akagi then jumped coming down with full force yet there was no sound, "Perfectly silent! They elimnate all sound as you walk or jump or even skip if you so choose!"
Akagi walked around his Felita displaying the silent footsteps as he picked up the second present, "For this one when you open it go stand in front of our mirror...you'll need no explanation for this one," Akagi offered the gift the excitement in his eyes forthcoming of his happiness.

Ophelia’s smile matched his. How could it not? It was infectious joy, joy that made her feel like a girl again. Not a mother, an anxious new queen, but a princess in love with a man more good than she could ever hope for.
When he picked up the second gift, Ophelia went eagerly to stand in front of the mirror, spinning playfully before looking at herself reflected in it. Ophelia’s eyes did not linger on her own reflection but turned to Akagi’s instead.

Akagi carefully opened her gift and produced the bracelet, stepping up beside his wife he took her hand his hands casually and softly brushing across her soft skin before he slid the bracelet on...and instantly her reflection disappeared, Akagi would appear to be alone holding the hand of nothing now...

Ophelia sounded a little squeak of surprise as her reflection vanished. Even after all these years of witnessing Arynnite magic, Ophelia was still in awe of it. Witch magic was reckless and destructive, where Arynnite magic was elegant and refined. Ophelia rather wondered if the latter suited her better.
“Akagi, it’s marvelous,” she giggled, the voice seeming to come from nowhere, as did the invisible hand that clasped in her husband’s.

Akagi would bring the hand to his mouth kissing the back delicately before letting go and going for the last gift, "Last but not least, should you ever find yourself in a tight spot and must make a hasten escape...defense," he would let her remove the bracelet if she so chose bur he opened the last box and removed the wand, "A wand of sleep: point, aim, swish and flick...it will put your target into a deep sleep for up to five minutes. Long enough should you need the escape, I will be giving you and the children portal keys as well well Lorelle and you for now. They will go to random undisclosed locations and I will have the only means to find and retrieve you when any danger is over..."

Ophelia’s eyes were wide with wonderment, her smile electric like a child on their birthday. She exchanged the bracelet for the wand and ran her fingers over the carved surface. It was beautiful, as was everything Akagi created. She rose on her toes and kissed him, putting her arms around his neck, and leaning into him.
