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.

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!

[ Made for @iliana and Akagi Llewellyn ] blockquote]Iliana had requested an audience with the king of Arynn Frey. Cassian delivered.
Rather than holding the meeting in Lorendale, Cassian had invited them both to Nevermere. They were, after all, family. Iliana was Cassian's wife, Akagi was his brother-in-law, and their oldest children were betrothed. It hadn't been formally announced just yet but they had all decided and agreed so it was as good as done.
They came together in Cassian's personal study, a place they both knew well at this point. Rather than Cassian at his desk, they all sat at the sitting area just five feet from it.
"I've called this meeting so that we might discuss the details of Elena Eldouir's trial." Cassian said to Akagi, looking to Iliana to pick up where he had stopped.
Iliana could feel the day wearing on her already, her shoulders a bit more tense. She certainly liked the idea of a hot bath or tea or anything. But alas, this wasn’t the time or place, at least not yet.
Using her portal key, she’d step within Cassian’s study and greet both appropriately, as she was the last to arrive. Not late, but just on time. Letting out a steady but long breath as she took her usual spot to Cassian’s right and settled into the cushion. Her husband, the man he was, wasted no time in approaching the topic that called the meeting. And she appreciated it.
She gave Akagi a smile, small and reserved but no less warm than normal. “My council would like to propose that we hold her trial in Arynn Frey. Surely she has her own charges to answer for there as well, and with what we know about the Eldouir’s… they are possibly anticipating that her trial will be held within Loren.”

Akagi sat in quiet reflection, prior to his leaving for Nevermere Akagi had sent out a letter to all of his Mothers personal enchanters and those involved with projects issued by her to cease operations. They would gather within the next hour and wait for his return, he had also requested Sylas Llewellyn be present when he gets back. During his wait with Cassian the King of Arynn Frey had come up with the two ideas proposed during Cassians request.
Upon Queen Iliana's arrival Akagi rose to greet her, his smile warm but the usual joy that oozed from the man was absent. Neither wasted time getting to the point of the meeting and he mulled the words over at the proposal of his kingdom hosting the trial of Elena Eldouir, "I see no issue with this request your Majesties, it would perhaps be the safest bet for everyone."

Cassian’s gaze moved slowly to Iliana and then to Akagi when he spoke. That had been simple enough.
“I will be happy to assist the hearing with an escort of witches, for good measure.” He offered to Akagi. Then, to Iliana, he said, “And I trust your majesty will sit as judge and assemble the jury? Aside from questioning the Eldouir, will you also call witnesses to the stand?” He wasn’t sure if Iliana wanted to process the gifted as they would any other. Were her sins so great that she did not receive that kind of equal treatment?
