It's another minute before his voice sounds out; "he remarried, left me in the care of Nahumanni, my nurse maid who had come to Apinumera with my mother. "Nahu, as she prefers, was the only one who would tell me of my mother and her homeland." There's a dip of his chin. "My father had married two more times after her death, before... " Rith swallows, "he became a conquerer, he would send armies in and take over small territories and kingdoms, like any good warlord - he and my uncle Makor - work well together. " Is that a bitter note? Is that a hint of disdain? The prince hums to himself, "my father's third wife bore two sons, Lyle and Reese, they aren't my blood siblings, I think, but I love them all the same." He does too; he adores his younger siblings, dotes on them. "My father had their mother killed, and he married Deans' mother, who died when he was born. "
There is history he tries to forget.
Rith holds a spoon, it's handle raising a pattern on his skin; "Magor, my...father displeased some powerful people, kingdoms with armies that are known to twitch and erase places of little note, yet they feared him." He twitches his fingers and the spoon moves, twirls, "so... these rulers found someone else to make my father, try to make my father anyway, to rue the day he decided that families should be ripped apart without a care in the world. Decided to render atrocities against the living. " He exhales slowly, "they hired those who are often Gray."
Odd eyes blink, catching the firelight, glimmering like embers: "they sent an emmessary to my homeland, with others who went about to the other kingdoms. Within a month they convened together, within another year, I was ten or eleven then, they came to my father... and they gave him a scroll, one which listened his crimes. Listed those who'd spoken out and what they'd said." The wind rattles the window against the frame, he inhales. "The messanger spoke, 'you have been rebuked, change your ways, repent.. or there will be punishment, ' ... my father beheaded the man."
