They turned to her younger sister, Xenia, but since she preferred to remain as one of the healers, they had to go their second cousin, Prince Pericles. He was young at the time at 3 years old, but showed how determined he was. Teachers from across the lands, out to the other nations, they refer to him as someone who their students should aspire to be since he never missed anything. King Pericles was always punctual during his training, celebration of past rulers, festivals, public outings, etc.   Although, what he is really known for above all, were his plumes. With golden feathers of hints with blue, these feathers of his were shedded so much due to his stressful life but it was not known to the public. Instead, the subjects were told that the King wished to give a gift to all. Said gift turned into currency known as Plumes today. Even during his molt it was bad throughout the years that the feathers are easy to come by.   Sometimes some lucky few found one large enough to wear and has since been a bragging tool by Noble to Commoners to even those exiled and from other nations. Pericles feathers are no joke in terms of fashion and the armor also matches in the military.   Not much happened during most of his early his reign due to how serious Pericles was and kept the other nations at bay by being a perfect role model of a ruler. When the time came for him to have an heir however, he had difficulty providing one what with little fertility he had come to find.   With a little help of magic of the hippocampi down below, he managed to create six heirs: two boys and three girls. However, as they grew up, one of the girls wished to be non-binary. There was confusion among the kingdom, but with Pericles' patience and decrees of everyone being judged fairly no matter the gender, they were safe to be who they wished to be.   As the nations nearby grew tense, Pericles knew he had to choose who would be crowned as the next ruler else the counsel would have to choose themselves. So he asked the six, if they wanted it. Alexis, who he had made a law for, spoke up while their brothers turned to them in expectation. Eminence Alexis was now their title and would soon become one of the kingdom's greatest leader after Styliani.
