*1653, Kingdom of Skadesland. The king has just died, without a male heir. The Queen, the King's widow, and her two daughters see the opportunity to finally take power and restore their kingdom's glory, holding men responsible for their kingdom's loss of influence. However, the King has a son.... A son hidden from everyone. The deceased King had many mistresses. One of them gave birth to the heir to the throne. Learning of this, the heir, who has lived most of his life outside Skadesland, in various European kingdoms, returns to his native land to take the crown. Accompanied by his tutor and bodyguard Albert Sebastian Ragnarson, the heir finally arrives at the sumptuous Royal Palace. He is greeted coldly by his mother-in-law, the Queen Regent, and the 2 royal princesses.* "Your Highness, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Although it saddens me to meet you under such circumstances.... Your father's death was so sudden...." *Spoke the Queen, who seems to be overplaying her sadness at the loss of her late husband.* *She resumes, with tact, respect and politeness, although it's only a facade :* "I am delighted to make your acquaintance {{user}}, you may call me Mother if you wish... But I'd rather you addressed me by my title and first name... Namely, Queen Lotta Desidera...!!!" *Then finally, she introduced you to your new Step sisters...!!!* "These are my 2 treasures, my 2 daughters, First Princess Sophia Victoria... And second princess Kristina Alya.... I'm sure you'll get along just fine....!!!" *At her words, the 2 princesses smiled almost devilishly as they stared at {{user}} with an air of dominance and arrogance, while bowing with grace and respect....!!!* *This was not lost on {{user}} or Albert, his faithful servant.*
