The History
The land of Lyonvale is a coastal kingdom known for its ports, fishing, and racial tension. The land itself once belonged to a clan of blood dragons (dragons who were considered the first true race to practice blood magic and transmutation). James Lyonhart was a general who was given the task of clearing the land for conquest in the name of a king whose ancient kingdom has long lost its claims for land. James and his men were all mages as well as combat soldiers, giving them a unique advantage against the generally peaceful dragon clan that was small in numbers as is. Only one survived, a child from the clan who had been given the human name Mathilde. Claiming victory, James was given the land under the title of lordship, being called by his men and the people as the Heart of Lyonvale--named after himself. As the centuries dragged on, his family remained in power, the Heart of Lyonvale being reborn as the first son of every generation. Eventually, Lyonvale claimed independence from the ancient kingdom who once ruled the realm, thus making Lord Sivone Lyonhart the first true king of Lyonvale. No matter how much time had passed, however, the kingdom consistently faced the fury of Mathilde. She stopped at nothing to terrorize the kingdom, even going to far as to slowly call the aide from various neighboring tribes to assist in her revenge.
The fate of Lyonhart changed the day Markus was born. The first king of Lyonvale to not be fully human, Markus was considered the mark of a change in the political climate of the kingdom. His mother was an eclectic clan leader from a neighboring land, marrying into the Lyonhart family in hopes of decreasing racial tension caused by the bias created over the years with non-humans siding more with Mathilde than Lyonvale. She doted on her son, the new Heart of Lyonvale, and he doted on her in return. When he was five, however, his mother would meet an untimely demise at the hands of Mathilde. The boy took on the combination of magical combat shortly after, growing up with a small tight-knit group of noble children whose family died in the same tragic incident caused by Mathilde. Markus paid little attention when his father married a werewolf clan leader for political alliances, but he was excited by the announcement that they were expecting a child.
When Darrell was born, Markus devoted his life to protecting the kingdom his brother would be raised in. Though he was only 7, he grew up fast and learned quickly how the world works. By the time he was 18, he was ready to take control of power. The king at the time--Markus' and Darrell's father, had fallen ill a time before, holding on until Markus could finally come of age to be crowned king. Once he was, his noble comrades growing up were promoted to high ranking general positions (much to the dismay of older generals). Darrell, in the meantime, was given his own army, mostly consisting of people from his mother's tribe and those who have married into the tribe.
For the next ten years, Markus rebuilt his army to return to its former glory of dragon slaying days by training his entire army to practice magical combat. With the push of his male friends and brother, he eventually confessed his love to his childhood friend and top general Varaeh Hoopas. She became his queen, and together they had to children in a time of almost suspicious peace.
Suspicions were confirmed when an unexpected attack occurred. In an unforeseen betrayal, Darrell had murdered Markus' eldest child--his son who had been declared as the new Heart of Lyonvale--before declaring his love and allegiance of Mathilde and disappearing along with his army. Struck by grief, the entire kingdom pursued in a full-blown war against Mathilde and its once beloved prince. For over fifteen years, each side laid siege onto each other, causing so much death that new cemeteries had to be built. As the war came to a close end with Darrell and Mathilde finally cornered, Mathilde gave her own life to protect the one person she still cared for--Darrell. In a frenzy of anguish, Darrell brutally tortured and forced himself onto the captured Varaeh. Realizing what he had done and knowing there was no way anything tat had happened could be forgiven, Darrell turned himself in to Markus. Knowing fully well all of Darrell's sins and treason, after all the year of anguish, Markus still could not bring himself to kill his brother. Instead, Darrell was exiled into a vow of silence, forced to wear the brand of a traitor for as long as he shall live.
The kingdom eventually united in what felt like an exhausting victory. The repercussions of war weighed heavily on Markus and Varaeh, who ended up bearing Darrell's child. Once his surviving daughter became 18, he announced that she will be the new Heart of Lyonvale--the first female to ever gain the title. Once her coronation was over, Markus disappeared from his kingdom, taking Varaeh and Darrell's child with him far from the coast in search of a more peaceful way to live out their days. They eventually stumbled onto Maldria, where Markus purchased land and a home to live in some form of peace. Unfortunately, the peace was not enough for Varaeh, who took her own life three years after moving to Maldria. Markus was left alone to care for Darrell's son, who had been named Gurit so Markus and Varaeh could remind themselves that he is the innocent one. Once he was old enough to leave, Gurit moved out, secretly returning to Lyonvale for a short time to learn the truth behind his birth. In the meantime, Markus has slowly wasted his days selling fish in the marketplace.
