A prisoner of war...

The kingdom of Silverwood has been embroiled in a decades-long war with the kingdom of Emberstar, as each new King and Queen, instead of trying to stop it, succumbed to vengeance and continued the war, without regard for the deaths of innocents.

King Fiannor, caring for nothing but winning the war against the Lavender family, sent more knights and even his own son to fight. The Lavender family, though weakened, managed to defeat the army again, and as a warning, they captured Leonidas, locking him in a filthy cell like any other prisoner.

But months later, with both kingdoms now on the brink of collapse, they decided to do something. Marry their children.
