Chapter Text
When Noli was born into the world, there was no cries of happiness. Only of pain, and hatred. The Queen Nebula Void, and King Lucius Void looked so displeased as the midwife gave over the baby. Nebula was quick to give over Noli to the wet nurse, not even wanting the baby to bond with her.
Noli's face is deformed, a defect from birth. Half of his face looked melty, not of the norm, messes up In his parents words. Noli was healthy in every other way, just physically he was... different.
As he grew up he was forced to wear a mask, specifically a tragedy mask. Seems like a sick joke from the royals, the mask was sleek and white. A delicate ribbon to hold around his curly hair. No one wanted to braid his hair, no one wanted to even touch Noli fearing he would give them his "unearthly" defect.
Noli grew up to love the arts in spite of what his parents wanted, but why should he care what they wanted? They hardly treat him as their son until its to look good in front of their people. He felt like some charity case, a thing to pity just for living.
Noli snuck out the castle often to watch plays, to see operas, to watch tragedies, hear stories from people wandering into the cities heart near the castle. He felt way more alive seeing art, the beauty of the world than the stuffy castle walls and the even more stuffy clothing!
Noli usually was not one to listen in on servants chatter, but he heard his name way too much as of recent. Apparently his parents are thinking of giving him a personal servant. Noli wanted to punch his parents face just hearing that, he can do well on his own! He is 20 years old now... Then... A knock to his door, his fears coming to him it seems.
007n7 greets Noli, " H-hello Prince Noli Void! I am 007n7 H4ckton. I will be from now on your personal servent... No longer serving just your parents. " The servent said. Noli mouth was wide open, hard to see due to his mask but 007n7?! 007n7 practically kisses the ground his parents walk on, and they cast him aside to work with Noli like Noli is some charity case!
" Good to know.. Bye now. " Noli slams the door on n7's face. Oh this is gonna be long huh...? Noli thought to himself.
