Robin (Aster North)

Once there was a child named Aster North. They grew up in a noble household. Most knew them as an obedient child. They picked up the love for art from their father and the love for traveling from their mother. Despite their busy occupations, their parents alway made sure to save time for Aster. Aster loved and trusted them.

Then there was a very special event. A child would be randomly chosen to undergo training to be the next leader. Unfortunately for Aster, they were chosen. Though they knew how important this was, they didn’t like the idea nor did they want to go. But everyone, including their parents, were celebrating for them. They didn’t have a choice.

Training wasn’t fun nor was it easy. Aster was scared. They didn’t have the comfort of their parents nor of home. There were always people bombarding them with training and quizzes. One dark night, they decided this wasn’t the life for them and ran away.

They were quickly known as “The Lost Royal Youth” as news of their disappearance spread. Search parties were sent and theories have been written on what could have happened. The North family were devastated while the Old Leaders were disappointed.

Robin didn’t know this was happening for a long time. It took a while for the second-hand stories and the missing posters to reach him. As he listens to strangers gossiping, he can’t help but feel annoyed. He wishes he could just tell them to stop looking for the Lost Youth and that all their searching is useless. He knows that kid is never coming back.
