@Synthx the Sinner (Part 1) To Sum it up, two large empires are on the brink of full blown war with each other, we will call them Empire's A and B. Nio is a smaller, third party Kingdom who is in a very good position, tactically speaking. Their biggest problem is that they are an incredibly poor island nation. But they weren't always an island nation. A long time ago Empire A kicked Nio off of the mainland and took their only fertile land, their bread basket. Well, after time has passed and nobles have done noble things, Empire's A and B have gotten into conflicts and solved these conflicts through political marriage, and it so happens that the next in line for Empire B's throne is also a high-ranking noble of Empire A, we will call this Heir the Big Pig.
