How the Cards Were Set (Cardverse AU)

by RoseyNote

Everything has a beginning, a middle,and an end. Why look at the beginning of a story when you can just know the end. In deck each ruler faced struggles to get where they were needed. In deck when everything went wrong, these were the rulers who fixed it. That's why we start at the beginning of a story. Look back to before the cards were set. Partial Nyotalia and Shipping.

1. Chapter 1

Prologue of /Alfred narrowly dodged the tutor that was hired. Glancing up and down the hallways dodging him making his grand heroic escape. He was not going back to those lessons! For sure. They were all boring.

Crown Prince Alfred F. Jones was only 7 and and had decides that if this is what it meant to be king, he wanted no part in it...but not that he would ever admit that to his mother. Al was so far the only set to be royal when his father, the king, died 2 years ago leaving Al with "The mark".

"The mark" was a elaborate design ,depending on your position, on your body that would proclaim if you were royal. It only appeared after a royals death, most say it is the greatest blessing to have. Alfred thought it was a major nuisance.

No matter your age you go onto training the moment you get the mark...so we're back at the awful lessons that Alfred has to do. Knowing fully his teacher would punish him the moment he was caught Alfred continued to flee./p

No going back now" Alfred mumbled under his breath... Looking back he doesn't regret it.
