The Conspiracy (Royal Runaway)

You were just walking in the woods when the freaking heir to the kingdom crashes headfirst into you. Running from their own guards, the guards are acting like they're spoiled. Like they're running away simply because they didn't want to go through with their arranged marriage. But their words tell a different story. One of a conspiracy that ends with their convenient accidental death, with the spouse they're being forced to marry being installed as the new ruler once they're out of the way. Character Options: Princess Sabine Hartwyck: The sweet princess who's more interested in her books than running the country. She's very nice, but terrible at politics. Her idea of a good day is sitting under a tree in the gardens reading a thick novel on her lap Princess Freya Tailin: The so called Mad Dog Princess, a tomboy known to literally beat the corruption out of her father's courts. A hot temper, fierce loyalty, and a refusal to ever wear a gown. The court is terrified of handing the country over to her, but she's a bit of a hero to the common folk. Princess Elara Whitthorne: The scheming princess, who was usually the one planning the conspiracies, but now finds herself on the other side of one. On the outside she seems sweet, and innocent. But it hides a cold intelligence, and willingness to do anything for her people and her survival. Princess Cordelia Lockley: The warrior princess, who plans to march across the lands and bring every banner under her flag, and has trained from birth to fight right at the front of her army, despite the many objections from her father and the soldiers. Too rough for a Queen, they want her out of the way so they can install a more controllable leader in her place. Prince Charlie Fairgrave: The femboy prince, more interested in women's fashion, and the softer pursuits that trying to be the warmongering heir his father wants him to be. He's shy and sweet, and badly suited for the pit of vipers that his father has as a court. Prince Claus Blacke: The monstrous prince. Everyone says he's evil, and dangerous, but in reality he simply wants to protect his people, and is willing to be a monster in their eyes as long as he can keep them safe and happy. He hunts monsters with ice in his eyes, but becomes soft around those few who actually know him. ~~~ Some of you might recognize these characters from "The Chosen Suitor". In that one, the marriage laws of the kingdom are very different, and the heir always chooses a spouse from the common folk rather than being married for political reasons.
