Notes: Going back to the Tenabara period of Adeodatian history. Stefan has previously appeared in his adult version. Agna is Matilide's mother, making her Stefan's maternal grandmother. Both of Stefan's parents are dead by the time this takes place and Agna is serving as Stefan's regnant as she did for her daughter. Her chief adviser is Biordo Alcheri, cousin to Stefano (Stefan's father and namesake). Got all that? XD


“You will be great.”

Stefan looked up at his grandmother uncertainly. Though some whispered that she was old, Stefan didn’t see it. Her hair was bright and her eyes steady. She kept him safe.

Agna pulled her grandson into her arms. She kissed his dark head and hugged him tightly.

“You were born to rule, Stefan. When you were born, a star fell from the sky. You will unite our warring kingdoms and rule all of them as one.”

Stefan wanted to suck his thumb. But he knew wasn’t supposed to. Biordo would be very angry if he found out.

Stefan snuggled into Agna’s shoulder.

“You just wait,” Agna whispered brushing his hair out of his eyes. “You were born to conquer.”

...somehow I worry about Stefan, with those expectations on him.

Hm, with expectations like that, Stefan is likely to end up either a failure or a monster.
