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!

"well, then I guess we better win huh?" Othello chuckled, "Let's head back before Dewayne and his cousin Dewayne think I've ran off with the Huntsman and done something devious," the board whipped around steady as ever and they were off. Othello had seriously grasped the concept of his new toy bringing them slow and easy to a stop and allowing Regan to step off before he sat the board down.
Othello wanted to see his other toy, the axe, so he brought it to his hand, "This is nice, really fuc-," he smirked trying to remember politeness, "really nice, can I test her out?"

Regan huffed in disappointment. Yes, probably for the best. Regan had started to loosen up around Othello, but other soldiers were still wary. And honestly, she couldn’t blame them. They’d seen what Othello could do. Regan had the benefit of holding the dog’s leash, but boy did he have teeth.
When they landed, Regan hopped off. The guards looked on with raised eyebrows as Othello handled the weapon. Regan nodded, crossing her arms with a grin.

Othello tossed the axe between each hand, it was like a dance the way he played with the axe cutting down unseen enemies. Before they knew it the axe flew from his hand and danced around his large frame before launching end over at through his manipulation toward a dummy that was set up, only it didn't just stick it obliterated the dummy. It then returned to his outstretched hand, "This, this is beautiful. Thank you..." and it was out before he could stop himself, "I uh, you, well you've done so much for me Regan...I only know how to say thank you."

Regan watched the axe fly through the air with a wicked grin. For all her complications, Regan Lassiter was a woman of simple pleasures. And this, power in its rawest form, was one of them. Magic was cool—enough said. The axe flew back into Othello’s hand, and Regan looked at him with a triumphant smile and an eyebrow raised as if to say, “Well?”
But Othello’s gratitude surprised her. Her cheeks flushed, toe digging in the dirt bashfully. “Oh, I, uh,” Regan cleared her throat, “You’re welcome. Really. You…” she looked back up, eyes big and sincere. “You deserve it.”

He himself realized how weird and odd and new and ugh, "yeah just, everyone gets one of those mushy moments," he chuckled and shook it all away, he couldn't be going soft (he couldn't right?).
"I don't know what I deserve truth be told ma'am," he laid the axe down and squatted down to observe his armour, "I haven't always been good you know? Most of my life I've been a real right bastard...so if this is it then maybe fighting this war is my real redemption or life will cash in on my faults. But I know you deserve more," he hadn't stood back up but he was looking at Regan, "I have never made anyone proud, didn't need to but for you...for Benjamin...maybe I can."

Regan smiled—a genuine, easy, not at all sarcastic smile. There was no eye roll, no attitude. Just genuine…something. Affection? Friendship? Something.
“Well,” Regan stepped forward, clapping a hand on his shoulder and aiming to meet his gaze, “Whatever you’ve done…maybe now you can start over.” Regan glanced at the two guards, “Hey, uh—” She furrowed her brow, looking suddenly serious, “Can you, uh, give us a minute?”
Though they were hesitant at first, the guards obeyed. Regan was, after all, their superior. And neither of them was too keen on their babysitting task anyway. She waited until they were well out of earshot before she turned back to Othello.
“There’s something I need to ask you about.” Something which clearly made her nervous.

When Regan asked to be alone with him Othello raised his eyebrows curiously just as he rose to his feet, "Oh? Yes of course," he titled his head with hands on his hips.

Regan took a deep breath. This wasn’t a conversation she wanted to have. She wanted to just bury it, act like it had never happened, but she couldn’t stop looking over her shoulder—ever since Coheed. She had to know.
“There was someone in Coheed—a woman. She was invisible, I guess. After I’d, uh, arrested you, she wanted me to hand you over. She said that you deserved to die. That if I didn’t help kill you one day, she’d kill me. Said that she’d hunt me down. Obviously, you’re here, but she’s still out there somewhere…” Regan swallowed, “Do you know who she is?”

Othello was surprised by the explanation and question, it was etched in his features and he truly racked his brain. A woman wanted him dead and his conclusion could only come from one source, "A Cambrian woman more than likely," he told the story, "years and years and years ago when I was just a pirate captain my crew washed up on the shores of Cambria after a storm, the women fell upon us quickly and they thought we were Coheed men...their leader, never caught a name, let us flee but not without having her women give chase. We ran," he could remember the sound of body after body falling under the pursuers, "goddess we ran until we couldn't anymore...when we stopped this big woman was seconds away from mowing us down but her blade was steel and I took it from her, killed her. Another woman came just as I plugged the giant sword into the other...whoever I killed meant something because I'll never forget the wail from the other blonde...."
Othello just stood there after telling his story, "I guess it wouldn't be to far fetched to reason I got enemies Regan..."

Regan listened quietly and without judgement. For she didn’t judge him. For practical and personal reasons, Regan couldn’t afford to think about Othello as the man he was versus the man she’d helped—in her own small way—to create. Right, wrong, or indifferent, he was a champion of Nevermere now. Regan was his sister-in-arms and would stand beside him, so long as he didn’t turn on her.
“No, I guess not,” Regan sighed, running a hand through her as she dropped down on to the ground, “Guess they’re our enemies now.”

"Once this war is over," this time he patted her on the shoulder, "I will settle my debts, no need in you becoming involved Regan," and he meant it that was his problem and if he hadn't been so wreckless that threat on her life wouldn't exist.

Settle his debts. Regan didn’t even know what that might mean. She almost pressed him on it, but with the guards lingering nearby and with a war on the horizon, she decided this was not the time or place.
“You’re one of us, now,” Regan said, as reassuring as she could be, “So long as it stays that way, you’ll have our protection. Nevermere’s protection.” For that was true, both personally and practically. Othello was, practically, an asset to the crown. A tool in its toolkit for waging war. Beyond that, he was a fellow soldier. A brother-in-arms.

He was glad she didn't press, if this mystery woman wanted his head then one day she might earn that chance and Othe would indulge her with combat. But one day, not today nor tomorrow but one day. Othello nodded, "Appreciate it, annnnd since we are on the subject of asking about things....I heard my ships enchantments were recovered? I want to see them, what's going to become of them."

Regan pinched her brow together. She hadn’t been briefed on the recovery of the ship—it wasn’t, she supposed, directly any of her concern—but now that it was laid before her she could put two and two together.
“I’ll see what I can do,” Regan said, making a mental note for herself to gather more information.

"good good, I'm hungry, eggs and steak for dinner," Othello patted Regan on the shoulder, honestly if he could eat just those two things Othello would be ultra satisfied but he was sure Regan would eventually tire of it still he'd push the envelope.
