House Scharm ruled from Reisenriller in the center of the northern territories. It had until recently been led by one Byzan Graeci von Scharm, who had also served as the chancellor to the empire. Publicly, it was believed he had been slain three years prior when a group of intruders broke into Venezyne. Privately, the facts were less certain. Second Prince Selene had come to suspect he had already been replaced by an impostor by the time of his alleged death. Regardless of the truth, however, his passing was now public, and it had dealt a heavy blow to House Scharm’s authority.

Had Selene been in good health, he might have been able to rally his faction, but he too had been wounded in the attack on the palace. Ever since that day, he had been recovering in private. With the rise of Sixth Princess Celia Estrella, the dominance of House Kelheit and their eastern nobles, and Lebering’s new prosperity added to the mix, the northern nobles felt beset on all sides. The world seemed to be moving faster than they could keep up with. Should they switch allegiances or try to ride out the storm? Both of the leaders they would have looked to for directions were now absent.

The nobles’ unease was further exacerbated by House Brommel. They were moving fast and hard, trying to tip the balance of power in their favor while House Scharm lay immobilized. The remaining members of House Scharm had no intention of lying down while their faction fragmented and were trying to address the issue in Selene’s absence, but they were hard-pressed to turn the tide. Before they knew it, most of their allies had sided with the enemy. It was only recently that House Brommel’s plans seemed to have slowed.

“There are ominous movements in Lebering, Your Highness,” the woman said, head bowed. “They appear to be mustering for war. If we show the slightest weakness, they will surely strike.”

She was one of Second Prince Selene’s two renowned Twinfang Generals, Phroditus von Heimdall. The young man kneeling beside her was her elder brother and the other Twinfang General, Herma von Heimdall. The pair had gathered in the throne room of Reisenriller to report to Selene.

Herma pulled a chagrined expression. “The same is true of House Brommel, Your Highness. They have been drawing troops from across the land. Whether they are working with Lebering, I cannot say, but they are surely plotting something.”

“Indeed.” Selene nodded. “Fortunately, I doubt Lebering is with them. We won’t have to worry about that, at the very least.”

Once word had spread that Lebering was massing its forces, House Brommel had slowed its pace. The traitorous nobles, too, had suddenly become very quiet. It had been a fortuitous turn of events for House Scharm. The stay of execution had allowed Selene time to recover from his injuries.

“I’m sure Lebering is plotting something of its own, but we still owe them a debt. And now that I am healed, I mean to put House Brommel in its place.
