[ Because Tsubasa isn't shallow, and there's no way that every single one of her likes and dislikes could be so shallow as that. She ... exhales. She should have expected that. Actually, no, more accurately: she did ]
I have a father, mother, and older brother. There are some relatives in other countries, but... I've not met most of them, and Piena's ministers don't consider it a good idea for us to get in contact with them. My older brother, Clyetum, died when I was fairly young. I don't actually have too many memories of him. My mother, Rashetanya, actually passed a little later than than that, so she's gone now too. As for my father...
[ which, of course, is the root of this question ]
His name is Nalphtum, and he's the king of the Piena, though that's now almost in name only. Six years ago, he went mad and declared that heretical religious cults that worshipped the Evil God had taken root in Piena, and began a great purge of numerous citizens and aristocrats. Eventually, his delusion was so great that he deemed that I was a heretic as well. I was banished from the palace and my family, and he named the prince of another country as his heir. When he put out a bounty for my head or the heads of other "heretics," a civil war erupted in Piena as people wanted to claim the bounty and gain a high title at court.
[ . . . ]
Eventually, the people who had supported me came out on top during that conflict. My father is still on the throne, but he's now a mere puppet: the Prime Minister and the Head Priest now run everything, and "Augustra" was added to my name to show that I'm the undisputed heir apparent when my father passes.
