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!

Magda watched the blood slide down Izen’s neck as he remained frozen before her. She idly thought that she’d allowed him to die on his feet, and perhaps there was mercy in that. Magda would wait. She’d stand and watch as the light left his eyes, letting herself face the full-fledged horror of what she’d done. She could feel herself stepping across some invisible threshold, over which there was no turning back. Magda had been the victim of horrors unimaginable, and instead of taking the coals of her suffering to be hardened into diamond, she’d decided to visit the burning ash of her ire on mankind.
When the paralyzing curse wore off, Izen dropped to the floor — and by that time he was already dead. A change came over Magda’s face, so brief that it could have been imagined. But Magda could feel it like a cold shiver up her back.
Magda would turn and kiss Rian. She’d kiss him with everything she had before turning to walk from the scene to wash, knowing full well there was nothing that would cleanse Izen’s blood from her hands.
