Chapter 53: Getting away

Prince Royan rushed into the room in a panic. News of the Seat going on a trip after adopting a child had traveled all through the corners of the palace. 

The rumors were that the child was of an illegitimate affair and that the Seat had gone to appease the mother of the boy. Others said the child was a distant cousin of the Seat. Others speculated that the Seat was changing his mind over the succession of the throne. 

As such the heir was startled by such news and had to verify for himself whether they were true or not. Entering the room, he caught sight of his uncle, Bran, forcing a young boy to get dressed. 

"You have to go for the lectures," Bran let out for a million times. 

Marcus remained stubborn. He had written the spells they teach in the royal classes. He was the founder of the school and knew everything they would teach, just because he had become a child does not mean that he would stoop so low as to attend such lectures.
