A lowly beggar, a sacred prince, a monster despised by all—if you bore all three identities, which path leads to happiness? Thales held no answers. He only knew he had arrived in an epic otherworld, facing a future of daunting challenges: A glorious empire fallen for millennia, a decaying royal house beyond redemption, legendary holy wars shrouded in conspiracy, and a fractured world teetering on chaos. Yet Thales possessed nothing. All he retained was an unyielding will, the courage to survive against all odds, and principles he would never compromise. _"Kings are not crowned by bloodline, but bloodlines gain glory through kings."_ As darkness purges light and fire tempers true steel, thus begins the tale of the Forbidden Prince.
