Summary:
Everyone knowns that Halt is crown prince of Clonmel. Everyone also knows that he gave up that crown to his nephew, Sean. But what if he had never needed to leave in the first place? And what if, when he was still prince a war started up in a neighbouring country? Who would've won? And say if the "black lord" did would we have any Rangers left there? Who would've protected Will as a baby? Or trained Gilan? The answer is no one. Will would've been dead, and Gilan too most likely.
But let's say in an alternate deminsion, the Halt we know was a was Ranger. And he had two apprentices. And those two apprentices were teleported to a time where Halt, was royalty.
Author's Note:
Ranger's Apprentice is a book series we all know well. There's currently fourteen books and over 1.7k fanfics for this series. We all love the Rangers, some more than others. And if you're a true fan, then you know how much of a vital role Halt plays. You also know that from the beginning, this Ranger had a secret.
Hold up! If you're going to read any further than you should know there are spoilers for prequels 1 and 2, plus books 8 and 9!
Halt be royalty was probably the last thing us readers expected. And this was part of Flanagan's plan. The entire time. So allow me to shine some on the subject. Let's go back and see the results of a world without Halt the Ranger and instead Halt the King.
