Tale of Four
Veston stands divided, the Great Lords all vying for power, slowly tearing apart a realm that has never known true peace. During this time, four people, all born seventeen years ago, move forward, with a command they heard before their birth, already deciding their fate.
Tristan Cosmaton, a princeling of the Cosmaton dynasty, resides at the Everlight Palace, a place where everything is a performance. After the late King Elias III's death, the realm elects a new ruler, fearing the civil war that could erupt under normal succession rules. After seventeen years of blending into the background, with the sole goal of survival, Tristan finally decided to step out of the shadows, not through ambition but a belief that it was the next step for what he had always done.
After seventeen years, Alice is finally granted the title Magi and is given the freedom she has always craved to explore the Mad House and learn the horrors and wonders that exist beyond the doors that line the magical tower. Charging ahead, she slowly delves deeper into the world's history and forbidden truths, pursuing the goal she doesn't truly understand the cost of.
Isis journeys the world, both Veston and the Western continent Oros, chronicling the world's stories, from the mundane to the exotic. For her, the world is one big story; everything worthwhile has its own novelty and beauty. With a command from before birth, she dismisses, Isis stumbles forward, filling her endless diary, inching ever closer to the inevitable choice she must make.
With one prophecy before birth, 'Defend the Dove of Salvation, ' Oliver rises from a Lordless Knight, searching for a liege he doesn't know to become the greatest sword in the realm. Oliver tries to navigate a world that tramples the ideals of Chivalry, one he despises, in pursuit of the sole goal of finding the one he must protect.
-----------------------
Other than the first short arc, which introduced all the characters at once, each arc will focus on a person's story unless they meet or are in close proximity to one another. Each arc won't just solely focus on the MC POV, but characters around there immediate orbit or are extremely important to the plot, but if it ever switches away from the MC to another character, it will be for a brief time.
The only character who won't have a second Pov and it will always follow the character is Alice
