The Crown Prince Begged for a Cure,I Gave Hima Grave

The Crown Prince is dying of a deadly magical poison, and I am the only alchemist alive who can save him. He offers me gold, glory, and royal favor. I offer him a grave. Fifteen years ago, his mother—the Queen—poisoned my sacred sanctuary and slaughtered all 399 of my kin to steal the crown. She left me for dead, never knowing her cold-blooded treason would birth her worst nightmare. Now, her son’s fate rests entirely in my hands. As I drag hundreds of white-boned caskets to the palace gates, the court trembles. I will not heal the prince—I will make the royal bloodline pay for every soul they took.
