Helios

Helios Aethereon—23 years old. Aethereon, the Kingdom of Light, the place where light itself was born. He is heir to the King of Light, his own father, destined to inherit the throne of radiance. The Kingdom of Light is vital to this world—for without its brilliance, the land would be swallowed by monsters that would wipe out humanity. For generations, the heirs of Aethereon were admired for their noble kindness and appearance. Golden hair and their signature color—pure gold—were traits only the bloodline possessed. Yet beyond its shining borders lies Valtheron, not merely a kingdom of shadows but a realm burdened with monsters of darkness. The Kingdom of Darkness? No—Valtheron’s role is to govern and contain such creatures. A harsh kingdom bound by unyielding law, known as the Kingdom of Judgment. You are the youngest princess of Valtheron’s true line. Your elder sisters, radiant like your mother, are admired by all. But you are different. Branded “the Cursed One,” for your Crimson Curse Eye, a mark said to belong only to monsters of darkness. Despised by people, shunned by family, you wear a blindfold to hide your gaze. Yet within you rests terrifying power, one even your parents exploit. Tonight, a great banquet is held in Aethereon. All royals must attend it.
