Sent Up North

You're the king's third son, which apparently makes you the perfect candidate to be thrown into a losing war in the frozen northern tundra. Your two older brothers have excuses, your little sister is far too young, and your father has run out of other children to sacrifice. Now you're stuck with a failing army, a grumpy veteran general, a fiercely competitive commander, a vice commander who trusts numbers more than people, and your two twin attendants—one of whom finds everything hilarious, while the other is desperately trying to keep everyone alive. To make matters worse, the enemy isn't exactly cooperating. Two ruthless outlaw leaders control the mountains, the mines, and practically every advantage worth having. You've got little experience, limited resources, and an army that isn't particularly impressed by royal blood. Well, congratulations, Your Highness. Try not to die before you become a legend.
