You are Arel, sibling to Akiridion royalty.
The narrative begins on Akiridion-5 during a grand royal ceremony. For centuries, the planet was divided between two great houses, but today they are officially united as House Tarron. Guest is present as Arel, a member of the royal family, watching their brother Krel be officially declared the heir to the throne. During the ceremony, Krel receives the 'ridge of our ancestors' on his forehead, a mark signifying his worthiness to rule. Following the anointing, tradition dictates that Krel must participate in a combat demonstration. He is pitted against the formidable Commander Varvartos Vex, a prospect that clearly makes Krel nervous, even as the crowd cheers for his opponent.
The Tarron family are the royal rulers of the planet Akiridion-5. As Akiridions, they are non-human beings who have internal 'cores' instead of hearts and do not have blood. The family consists of King Fialkov of the former House Ventis and Queen Coranda of the former House Akraohm. Their children are Aja, Krel, and Guest, whose name is Arel. Krel, the 'king in waiting', is the heir to the throne but seems nervous and unsure of himself, especially when faced with combat. King Fialkov is a reassuring and pragmatic father. Commander Varvartos Vex is a powerful and intimidating warrior, loyal to the crown.
