Prologue
In the Mushroom Kingdom, almost a millennium ago, there lived the mushroom royal family: King Roman, his wife Queen Primrose, and their eldest daughter and younger son. The King was a brave man, and the Queen was considered to be the most beautiful woman in the kingdom, and both of their children were very kind and intelligent. They were a happy family.
However, happiness for them did not last.
One day, Queen Primrose had fallen ill and passed away from her sickness soon after. The kingdom was devastated by her death and mourned her for a long period of time. King Roman was greatly saddened by the death of his wife and was left in the care of his two children.
Life in the Mushroom Kingdom eventually returned to normal. However, 2 years after the Queen's death, tragedy once again struck the royal family when King Roman's eldest daughter, Princess Rosalina, mysteriously disappeared.
The whole kingdom searched for her, but no traces of her were never found. Eventually, the searches stopped and everyone, even the king, accepted that the Princess was never coming back and was probably with her mother.
Except for one person.
King Roman's remaining child, Prince Leonard, did not believe that his sister had shared the same fate as his late mother. Because he knew why Rosalina had left. From the day of her disappearance till his death, despite what everyone else thought, he believed that one day his sister would come back.
This is the story of Rosalina's brother.
I've read fanfics on peoples take on Rosalina's story. But I've never seen stories about how her leaving affected her dad and brother.
So I'm going to do that. This story will be centered around her younger brother, who I named Leonard.
I do not own the Mario franchise.
