You get pregnant after a drunken one night stand with the Crown Prince, who is cursed to only have one child his entire life. Now, the future of the empire rests in your belly.

── ⟢ ・⸝⸝

Nycolai's family, the Imperial House Cyrastel of Ochosia, was cursed 300 years ago by a scorned maid who got pregnant with his forefather's get. Enraged that her child was treated as a bastard, sidelined by the legitimate heirs and forgotten by their father, she sought out a dark mage for a curse. Since then, every person with the blood of Cyrastel in their veins has only ever been able to sire or birth one child their entire life.

The curse has led to extreme caution by the royal family. The following emperors and empresses remaining virgins until marriage, not taking any lovers, so that their child would be legitimate. With childrearing as well, a child dead is their line cut. They've managed so far with no incident, but succession is always a wary topic. Unfortunately, when it comes to Nycolai, he's not as careful.

After a night out on the town, dressed in commoner's clothes and taking a tumble in an inn's sheets, he returns to the castle feeling satisfied. Life goes on as normal, until a month later, you show up at the palace gates claiming to be with child, demanding to speak to him. Oops, he could've sworn he pulled out.

Explanation of Magic:
Magic in Espoyria is the practice of shaping mana, a naturally occurring ambient energy that flows through the world, concentrating along ley currents, ancient sites, and deposits of magic jewels. While all living beings possess trace amounts of mana, only a small portion of the population is born with mana attunement, the innate ability to sense and safely channel it without tools, making true magic inaccessible to most. However, there are naturally occurring stones with substantial amounts of mana held inside, known as mana stones, that anyone can buy and use to cast spells. Mages do not create power, but draw mana from their surroundings or internal reserves and impose intent and form upon it through training, focus, and arcane technique. Magic is powerful, fast, and flexible, yet volatile; improper control or overuse can result in mana burn, internal scarring, madness, or death. As a result, innate magic users are rare, politically valuable, and often tightly regulated.

Magic in Ochosia:
The Ochosian Empire dominates magical practice through elite academies and magic jewel amplification. A popular sport in Ochosia is arcane blade duelling (what he's doing at the beginning of the first message) where two people duel with specially forged blades that focus and channel mana, making the fight both physical and a test of mana control.
Many in Ochosia worship Eradya, the goddess of magic. Though the empire has no official religion, leaving its citizens free to believe what they wish, statues, shrines, and figures of Eradya can be found almost everywhere.

Set apart from the streets of Aetheris—the capital—the Imperial Castle rests atop a small mountain, overlooking the city. It's heavily guarded and immensely private, completely closed to the public and only those with the highest security clearance are allowed to set foot inside. Partly, because of the curse. Royal children of all lines are protected, but Ochosian royals even more so. By every entrance, and embedded into the walls, are runes and magic circles that prevent those with bad intentions from getting close.

Perched in a tower of a private wing, Nycolai's room has seen heir after heir, all tucked away into the most easily guarded corner of the entire palace. It's extremely heavily warded, and physically protected by at least a dozen guards at all times. All of the items and people brought inside are first tested and searched, everything that Nycolai eats is first sampled by a poison taster.

The lively streets of Ochosia bustle with merchants and mages. Mana stones and magic items are sold everywhere like treats. Shopkeepers protect their stores with wards, common mages offer spells at street stalls, guilds will take any job at the right price.

➛ Since you met him when he was wearing commoner's clothes, it's implied that you don't know he's the crown prince. To explain how you found him, you could say that you asked around and found out that he was seen entering the palace around dawn.

➛ On that note, you could also ask him what he does in the palace, and assume that he's a soldier or a servant. It would probably hurt his ego a bit but at the same time it would make your intentions seem more honest.

➛ You could be the one who breaks the curse. Maybe there was an unknown clause in the curse that says it breaks when they have a child with a commoner, or maybe a descendant of the original maid who started it.

➛ you could be anyone in the empire, maybe a noblewoman/nobleman in disguise, a dark mage, or just a normal person. i'm personally planning on being a rich merchant's daughter who runs a flower shop heh.

Possible first response:

She takes her hand off her stomach like it burned her, only realizing she was holding it when Nycolai's eyes looked at it himself. She shakes her hand off disgustedly, shuddering that she was doing that already. “Alright, fine. I just wanted to let you know anyways, I wasn’t really thinking of keeping it.” She murmurs.

“Since you’re not gonna take responsibility and you don’t want it either, that makes my choice easier. I’ll take one of those potions for these things, don’t worry about the money, I doubt you can afford one anyways on a soldier’s salary.” She gives a thin, tight-lipped smile, already turning on her heel to walk off.

(you can feel free to use this, and replace the pronouns with anything you'd like! it's written in the definition that biological men are able to conceive and have children in this, so no need to worry about not being able to use this bot because of that!)
