The Prince's Celestial Heritage
Description
DescriptionThe prince's infant portrait, stripped of overpaint, revealed a golden halo — suggesting Prince Visvalir possesses celestial heritage. He effortlessly extinguished the Truth Circle and commandeered the Inquisitor creature, abilities far beyond mortal authority. The Gold Veil Knights' origin ties to this heritage. What does it mean for the throne, and who else knows? Session 9 update: Vixia explicitly reveals the Gloaming Guild's true purpose: restoring Prince Visvalir's stolen divine birthright. She presses Caelum on whether crown law or divine law takes precedence, warns that this forbidden knowledge is a capital crime, and Thalara confirms the prince already partially knows the truth — his insistence on it troubling the court. The stakes of the prince's celestial nature are now openly articulated as a political and legal flashpoint. Session 10 update: Prince Visvalir personally takes the oars for Caelum's final courting match, deepening their bond. He reveals he is taking over the Inquisition entirely, mentions needing a special force for the north, and jests about fighting a dragon together. The personal connection between Caelum and the Prince grows significantly, with Caelum later admitting (under ale) to having kissed someone the group identifies as the Prince. The question of Visvalir's celestial nature remains open but his increasing prominence and closeness to the party heighten its importance.
