A KINGDOM DIVIDED...The trouble in the Empire has finally subsided, but that doesn't mean Wein can rest easy. Relations between the East and West are more strained than ever, and both sides are vying for Natra's allegiance. Joining with one will make an enemy of the other, a decision that will surely lead to war. And things aren't exactly peaceful at home, either. An independence movement is brewing in Natra, and Ninym's been caught in the center of it, stirring up further chaos. Can Wein keep his kingdom together long enough to shepherd it into this new era? Is he even the right person for the job?

Lowellminäs campaign against her brothers seems to be going well after she snags a victory against both of them. However, members of the enemy faction like Glen and Strang aren¿t ready to throw in the towel just yet. Meanwhile, the Eastern Church of Levetia seizes upon the chaos of the conflict in Earthworld to advance its own agenda. With Wein the genius prince caught in his own difficult position, the continent seems to be barreling for chaos!¿¿

A PARTY TURNS TO PERILThe Delunio Kingdom has called for a meeting with Natra and Soljest to strengthen their three-way alliance. Wein is still dealing with the fallout from his latest escapade, so his sister Falanya attends in his place. And it doesn¿t take long for her to notice that something is amiss. This ceremony has become the site of multiple political plots concerning the East and West! Does Naträs princess have what it takes to end the schemes before it¿s too late?

TURNING TRADITIONS ON THEIR HEAD At the behest of Holy Elite Agata, Wein visits the Ulbeth Alliance, a nation made of four city-states perpetually locked in a power struggle. While Agata asks for assistance unifying the nation, Wein suspects the man is after something a little less altruistic. Still, he goes along with it and launches a campaign that will disrupt long-standing traditions and upset the delicate balance of power in Ulbeth. But when have such paltry concerns ever stopped the prince of Natra?

TROUBLE AHEAD​The Gathering of the Chosen. Prince Wein inexplicably lands himself an invitation to the conference featuring some of the most influential figures from the western side of the continent. Obviously, it has to be a ploy to make him sever ties with the Empire in the East, and it wouldn’t be advisable to walk into a trap when he wants to remain neutral...The prince, however, has never been one to heed sound advice! Waltzing headlong into danger, no sooner has Wein set foot in the host city of Lushan than he finds himself framed for the murder of a Holy Elite—and that’s just the beginning of his troubles...!

Imperial Prince Demetrio and his advisers are stumped. And for good reason,too.Wein, the Crown Prince of Natra, has joined their meeting, and hewasnΓÇÖt reallyinvited. Wein is technically only here to return a favorto Imperial PrincessLowellmina, who canΓÇÖt stand to watch her threebrothers rip each other apart for thethrone. Somehow or other, he findshimself teamed up with Demetrio, who seems likeheΓÇÖs the least likelyof the three to become the next emperor...

IN THE UNEXPLORED REACHES OF THE OCEAN​Clear skies. Deep-blue sea. Tropical sun baking the sandy beach. Wein finds himself whisked away to the Patura islands in the tropical south, trying to make the best use of his access to the port in Soljest. These islands are at the top of his list of potential trade partners, and if he doesn’t come back to Natra with a deal in hand…let’s just say his monthly expenses might run him completely dry. It seems, however, that the gods are not on his side: One little slip-up lands him behind bars in the island nation. The only silver lining, it seems, is that his neighbor the next cell over seems like an interesting guy…who might have some-thing to do with the hunt for the Rainbow Crown, a piece of treasure housing magic that can control all of Patura!

IT AIN'T EASY BEING A GOOD BROTHER!It's time for the three Imperial princes to meet and argue their way to the throne in the city of merchants, Mealtars. Sounds like a good opportunity for Wein to take a breather since this gathering obviously has nothing to do with him...until Imperial Princess Lowellmina goes out of her way to invite him to Mealtars, too. But Wein's already learned that it's always better to decline her offers. Turns out, things would have gone smoother if he'd just attended, because now he has to deal with a whole new problem: his sister, Falanya, going in his stead!

After narrowly dodging a marriage proposal (for the time being), PrinceWein is accosted by a messenger from the Kingdom of Cavarin, which can only meanbad news. Though he accepts their invitation to join their religiousfestivities, this treasonous prince''s top priority is to not attract more fame.

It ain't easy being a bachelor...His people might laud him for being the next great ruler, but Prince Wein of Natra has been conspiring behind their backs to live the languid life of a retired teen. Now, a major roadblock stands in his way. Ever since he won a war with a neighboring country, he's become a household name all across the land...which, frankly, sucks. And as if things couldn't get any worse, Prince Wein has just met his newest challenger: the Imperial Princess Lowellmina, who's here for a secret favor-to ask for his hand in marriage?! It's just too good to be true! Well, this genius's instincts may be spot-on, because there's something lurking behind her plan to make Wein her trophy husband...

The prince of this smalland weak kingdom strives for only one thing: selling out his country and livinga quiet life in leisure! Sadly, the greatest obstacle he will ever face is hisown genius...! As he achieves ever greater accomplishments, he earns more andmore favor with the people of his kingdom...which makes fulfilling his owndreams all the harder!!!
