Challenge #03534-I246: Heavier Than You Think

A young heir is about to be crowned ruler of their homeland. They ask their people to please bring Wraithvine to the palace, to please advise them on how they should rule. They love their homelands, and their people, and they're afraid of making a mistake that might hurt the ones they love. -- Anon Guest

Father hadn't meant to turn himself into a King. He had been quite content to remain Earl of Whitekeep, but... fate and prophecy and his own nature intervened. He had insisted on reigning from the Blood Throne and only using the Demon's Diadem as personal decoration.

After all, he insisted, everybody knew who he was.

But now that Prince Kormwind Arachis Felbourne Whitekeep, tenth of the name[1] lit the throne and a coronation to King was in order, he had... doubts. Papa Kosh was only too happy to retire into being the Baronet of Arachis, and only had a few words of advice. "Go forth in all your beliefs and prove that I am not mistaken in mine."

They were Tieflings and Aasimars, siblings all, who went from place to place.

They were small, thin, wiry, bespeckled and lanky. They spent most their time reading, or quietly relaxing, listening to music.
