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!
Peter had just officially received his new appointment. It had been one he sought out intentionally as soon as he'd heard that things in the royal court were changing. He knew that he had what it took to excel here but perhaps even more than that, not that he'd said as much, was that having this position would also made him more visible in Loren and beyond. He intended to use that gained influence. For good of course.
He stepped into his office and found it mostly bare save for the primary functions it needed, things like a desk and chairs and a half filled bookcase that he'd sort through later. Eventually he'd get his own personal touches in here but right now he was just elated to know that the space was allllll his.
He was also supposed to meet his assistant today which was delight. He was happy to accept all the help that was offered to him, even if she only did it for the coin rather that the passion of it, which was his initial assumption. Though truthfully he had yet to meet her. He sat down behind his desk and took his time exploring all the drawers and crevices, simply seeing what he had at his disposal.

Cahaya was an assistant to Peter Kingsley the new Lord Steward. Thinking about it she was hoping that she make certain that his first day was the best, she brought him a sweet treat from a local bakery for him. When she arrived she knocked on the door waiting till she was let in when she walked in and gave the man a nod of his head. "Good morning Mr Kingsley, I am your new Assistant Marchioness Sinaga. I am happy to be any assistant to you needs." She smiled. "I brought you a congratulation on your new job treat." She handed him over a cinnamon roll.

At the knock on the door Peter called out for whoever it was to enter and he stood up when an absolutely gorgeous woman stepped into his new office. Loren was full of beautiful people to be sure but this girl was truly a sight to behold. He smiled at her as she introduced herself and practically beamed as she offered him a treat just to say congratulations.
He moved to the other side of the office to take it so that the piece of furniture was no longer between them. "This is just about the kindest thing I could imagine, thank you so very much, how thoughtful!" he said, lifting the cinnamon roll up to his nose to smell it. "Well we're going to need to dive into this together!" he said.
"But first, I don't think there is any needed formality here between us, do you? Please, call me Peter," he said, offering her a hand to shake. It wasn't as formal as a curtsy and may have also been just an excuse to have a reason to touch her. He wanted to know if her skin was as soft as it looked.

This man seems to be kind which is a good thing, to see him stand up as she enters the room. when he didn't have to. It shows mutual respect, even though she works for him it still feels nice to have that respect in place. Cahaya took in Peters face, like she can't deny that he is attractive, however she was his assistant and she takes her work seriously.
"It is the least I can do." She wanted to to put in the effort and make a good first impression. However when he suggested to dive into the cinnamon roll together, cahaya looked into his eyes wondering if he was serious, she got the treat for him. She did give him a warm small, "Only if your offering."
No need for formality well they be working together a lot so it does make sense they they feel comfortable round each other. "I agree s... I mean Peter." She shook his hands, it is clear that she take care of her hands even though one can tell she spent years writing. "Please call me Cahaya."

As she took his hand he placed his other hand on top of hers, cradling her hand in between both of his as he shook her hand warmly. Her skin was indeed very soft though he could feel some small callouses too, something he also appreciated. There was beauty in imperfection too and it was so unique to each individual. "Cahaya, what a beautiful name, it's my utmost pleasure to make your acquaintance," he said with a charming smile before releasing her.
"Now, about this divine cinnamon roll. Should we head down to the kitchen to grab some forks?" he asked, assuming there would not be any silverware in his office and not minding the excuse to take a stroll with her. "You could give me a little tour on the way," he suggested.
