Legacy of the Dark Sage
When Kyran turned 18, his life turned upside down. The Royal Army raided his clan because his supposedly non-existent magic got exposed. On that fateful night, he was the only one who escaped. Up to the present, the status of his clan was unknown. A magic inheritance that became a curse, Kyran became a fugitive. Always on the run... living in fear when the Royal Army finally captures him. At least that's what most people thought... "I'll definitely save my family. And I will make all those who made my clan suffer pay tenfold. I'll make use of this magic they so feared, and show them what real terror is...." Disclaimer: The cover image isn't mine. I'll replace it when I finished mine.
The Abbot's Son
The old man was not wholly oblivious, though. The main reason he wanted to prevent the fake Sovereign from taking Cyneah was because he believed she did more than heal his illness. She might have boosted his magic, giving an illusion that he had the power of a Sovereign.
How that happened, the old man was unsure. But one thing he was sure of, the illusional boost in magic, was not permanent, which was why the fake Sovereign wanted Cyneah.
Of course, all of these were only the old man's speculations.
Unbeknownst to him, Kyran also had the same thoughts.
The ascension of the fake Sovereign right after his illness was healed of his illness was an indisputable fact. Add that up to his sudden interest in Cyneah and the fact he was not even a Sage; thus, even if he ascended, he should not have become a Sovereign.
'You are this plane's real Sovereign?'
