Description
Maia, the youngest and half-goblin son of the Emperor, has spent his life in exile, far from the treacherous intrigues of the Imperial Court. When his father and three heirs are killed in a mysterious 'accident,' Maia is thrust onto the throne as the sole surviving heir, despite his complete lack of preparation for court life. Unsure of whom to trust and aware that the assassins may still be active, he must navigate a dangerous world of political maneuvering, potential assassination attempts, and the constant threat of usurpation. Amidst the challenges of ruling and the search for genuine allies, Maia must learn to survive and perhaps even thrive in his new, perilous reality.
