The Tyrannical Baby

At the center of the imperial throne no longer sits the tyrant who dominated the continent for years… but a young woman, Empress Mabel Gardénia Illoini. His age should be a weakness. Her smile should be irrelevant. Their presence should be symbolic. But it isn't.

Since its rise, the empire has not weakened. On the contrary, it has become more unpredictable. Decisions arrive without warning. Threats vanish before they even materialize. And those who try to manipulate the court discover too late that they have already been considered… and dismissed. The previous emperor, Estevan, hasn't disappeared from history, but his role has changed. He's no longer the center of visible power, but a force behind the scenes, ensuring that no one dares cross certain lines. The crown prince, Oscar, observes, learns, and adapts to a scenario that wasn't meant for him… but in which he still has a place. Meanwhile, figures like Aidan and Lysander remain close to the Empress, not only as protectors, but as key players within a system that no longer operates under traditional rules. And outside the palace… the world has begun to react. Foreign kingdoms challenge the stability of the empire. Some see this as an opportunity. Others, as an even greater threat than before. Among them, names like Veron Devlica resurface, not as mere enemies, but as players who understand that this new empire cannot be confronted in the usual way. In the shadows, the so-called "Syndicate: Evil" is no longer just a rumor. It's a real, active, and dangerous network, anticipating conflicts before they even begin. No one knows who its members are, but many have felt its effects. Magic itself has become unstable. Ancient beasts are beginning to stir. And some sense that something deeper is about to unfold.
