The Twin Kingdoms discussion

Eighteen years ago after much trying, the Queen became pregnant. She had had a hard pregnancy and barely survived the birth of their child. It was a beautiful baby girl. It was practice in this land to have an oracle prophecy at a child's birth. The oracle came a few days later and what she saw troubled her. She told the King and Queen that they needed to send her away in order to save the land for the sake of the land. Queen Kyria was heartbroken and never recovered, but she followed her husband's decision to send her child away. They were told only that the child would return when she chose to leave her world and when the realms needed her most.

Many years past and nothing bad happened. The Queen became angry and blamed her husband and the oracle for sending her daughter away. She became bitter and eventually she was no longer the benevolent Queen the kingdom loved. She could no longer have children and she could not stand the King so she was alone except her body guard. The Queen decided to have her revenge. She took over the eastern portion of the Kingdom with an iron fist. The subjects are loyal to her except for a few who have formed an underground resistance. The King was heartbroken, but eventually remarried in order to have an heir because he had lost faith that he would ever see his daughter again. The Queen is now wanting the whole kingdom for herself in retaliation, but she has no real claim on the throne except for.... their child.
