The Royal Family of Sylvania
I am Navier Dominique Drachenoff Sylvania, Proud prince of the Northern Empire. I am the only 'son' of the late Empress Natalia Viktoria Alexandria Dranchenoff and Xavier Seig Dominic Sülze Sylvania. I was trained from a very young age to lead people, they said I had knack for it. I love sword fighting and Martial arts training, I usually join tournaments in our kindom and not to boast, I am always the victorious one.
They say I had the best of both worlds when it comes to my looks. I have Sylvania's signature dark-silver hair, only select royals have dark-silver hair, most of the people in our clan have silver with a touch of platinum blonde looking ones and that's what distinguishes the greater Royals from the regular nobles. Aside from my long flowing dark silver hair, which I always tie for it not to get in the way, I also have my mother's honey-golden eyes, paired with my father's perfectly pointed nose, lips as red as a rose, and cheeks looking flushed as if in a hot summer's day. Many people are telling me that I looked like a goddess dressed in a knight's armor and 'if' I were a girl they would surely love to marry me, funny thought right? If only they knew.

Parade of Royals
Once a year the royals in our family go through a parade, not just to show our beautiful faces, but also to show people our heartfelt gratitude for the services they provided. We do this as a feast for the good harvest, I love this season because it's the only time wherein I can compete with the strongest people, not just in the Northern Empire, but also the other Powers like Southern, Eastern, Western, and from other parts of the world. I love fighting, it feels like I was made to fight and I also I feel like I would die if I don't fight at least once a day.
"Aaaaaaah Prince Navi look here!", A lady said while waiving both of her hands at me. I smiled and waived back.
"Wow, I feel so satisfied just by seeing the prince!" A young man said while gawking at me, again, I just smiled and waived.
"Hehehe...I'm Excited to fight and finally defeat you my prince!" Pietro said as he flex his arm in front of me.
" **sigh** You never learn my friend, every year you try to fight and every year you end up losing. Aren't you tired of being a loser?", I shrugged as I teased Pietro.
Pietro Alejandro Sülze, servant and also my cousin from my Grandfather's mother's side, is a very good-looking man, He is 6'2", taller than me by few inches, 5 to be exact, lean figure but in time he'll be able to build up muscles, he's just 19 so I think he will grow given a few years more. He has honey-colored skin and silver platinum-blonde hair, pointed nose, and chiseled face. He has this Adonis vibe wherein any damsel, in distress or not, would fall for him and would love for him to be her knight in shining armor. What I love about him is his loyalty and friendship, he would willingly give up his life for the people he loves.

The Royal family of Sylvania consisted of my Grandfather, Emperor Sieg Dominique Sülze Sylvania IV, the Mighty Silver warrior who single-handedly fought and won the war in Northern Border. Even in his old age, he still looks majestic and elegant as if were in his prime days. My Grandmother, Empress Natalia Veronica Alexandria Drachenoff, most intelligent empress of the northern empire. It was said that when she was younger her beauty stirred all men who saw her and it even started wars from different empires and kindoms. It was her who strategized and helped my grandfather to win the war in the Northern border. Funny thing is, they weren't actually married yet at that time, they just 'accidentally' came across each other. My grandmother fleeing from the arch duke Daumier Heimer, nephew of Bishop Sebastien Heimer who is forcing her to marry him, was running through the forrest. My grandfather, heir apparent to the throne, met her while hunting and fell in love at first sight. He then helped her by fighting the Arch Duke Heimer defeating him in the process. Afterwards while they were trying to go home, they got lost and stumbled upon the enemy troops encamping on the northern shores. My grandfather did not want to return to the palace and regroup because he thought it's a waste of time, won the war by the strategy planned by my grandmother. After that, they became well-known as the Brains and Brawns of the Northern empire and became a couple. Beside them are my uncles First prince Sieg Alexander "The viscious" Sylvania he is known for his visciousness and brutality that even the emperor frowns upon his attitude to his subjects. His wife Amely Venice Heimer Sylvania, 'oppressed' wife of the first prince, little is known about her because she rarely goes out, from what I've seen, she looks pale and sickly but is still beautiful. My cousin Sebastian Alexander Heimer Sylvania, he is kind to me but doesn't talk much, he loves being alone and just reads his book all the time. The second prince Nett Avery Sieg Sülze Sylvania, he is timid and kind but there's something about him that I can't put my finger on, it feels like he's always hiding something. Beside him is his Ambitious wife Cornelia Edeltrude Verräter Sylvania, they have no kids even after 30 years of marriage, I wonder why. They all have silver platinum-blonde hair, the very reason why I was molded as the next emperor even though I have my uncles and an older cousin.
My Grandparents are very loving, though they're very busy, they still find time to watch all my matches. They allow me to participate because they said I need to show my abilities to everyone in the empire so they will know how powerful the future Emperor is. Also, they make use of this time to find a suitable mate for me, my grandparents know that it will be a fruitless marriage, because you know, I can't really procreate with a woman, nothing will come out of it, but I need to do it for formality. They need someone who will accept the secret of the Royal Sylvania Household.
I'm not particulary interested in anyone, regardless of the gender, so I let my grandparents decide as I continue honing my skills. I told them I will accept anyone who they think will benefit them. But you see, isn't it much better to find a partner because of love and not because you just need someone to be with you worse, just to find someone good for your image.
"What do you think of the grandneice of Bishop heimer? He is practically begging us to consider the young woman...", Grandmother whispered.
"Whatever and whoever you think is suitable my beloved grandma is fine by me" I said as I leaned my head on her shoulder, in return she would wrap her arm around me and comb through my hair with her fingers. I always do this eversince I was a kid, it's just so comfortable to have someone comb their fingers through your hair in a loving way. I love my grandparents so much, they showered me with love and even though I lost my parents, I never felt lacking because of their love.
