   Summary

   In a diverging timeline, the late King Maric legitimized his bastard son, Prince Alistair Theirin. Now, King Cailan is looking to consolidate his power in the Landsmeet. But how? With a royal wedding, of course!

   Together, they ride to negotiate with Teyrn Cousland for the hand of his daughter. But Elissa seems to have other plans.

   Does being a prince give Alistair what he always wanted? Or are there hidden costs in this timeline that he and Elissa will have to face?
