Aries: The first king. A colossal man with skin like freshly tilled earth and a voice that could calm the old wild things. Colossal, gentle hands. The first shepherd of rocks and clay. Molding the wild into home.
Taurus: An exile by birthright, a king by deeds. A tale of honorable revenge and lifelong friendships cut short. A life on horseback that left in its wake an empire, and countless pillars to the dead.
Gemini: The ghost of a princess. Ever a lady in waiting, she wanders the halls of an abandoned palace. Hands from the ash. The burning silhouette of a child. All those who seek to defile her home will know flame as she did.
Cancer: Identical twin princes. The reigns of empire won by blood now passed to them. To the surprise of a nation, able to share the throne. Ever deliberating, never moving without consensus. Diplomats, delegates, scholars, and magicians. Memories of mother. Each carries one half of the daisho.
Leo: The high priestess. Ritually sharpened teeth. Rivers of blood washed away by conjured rainstorms. Liaison to the god that sleeps below the great temple. The speaker to the forbidden sun.
Virgo: The Witch Queen. The Wardbreaker. The Mother of Hexes. Armies from the north that could call fire from their hands, wounds healed with the sermons of foreign gods. Captured officers. Secret research in the ancestral necropolis. New magic, gentle and deep as the night.
Libra: The mushroom king! The mushroom king! The mushroom king! The mushroom king! The mushroom king! The mushroom king!
Scorpio: The King-of-Five-Crowns. An empire won by respect and might. Retirement. Evenings spent in the summer palace, teaching grandchildren to paint.
Ophiuchus: An empress of honey and sun-baked gold. Honored dead bound in white cloth. Eternal servitude to their holy queen. Consul from centuries of royalty now passed.
Sagittarius: The Lady of the Grove. Revelries by moonlight. Distant songs in the mist. Lost children. There is a road through the forest, it has since been omitted by mapmakers.
Capricorn: The middle child of a royal bloodline. Exile to a monastery. A lifetime of meditation on divinity and craft. A heart of clockwork. Mummified in the calculus of the world.
Aquarius: A penitent queen. Now an adviser to those who overthrew her son. A veil in mourning, but not for him. Deep, terrible understanding of what makes a tyrant.
Pisces: An all-to-young queen. Inheritor to a throne built on war and blood. Ceremonial jewelry that resembles the armament of her knights. A legacy of imperium and bloodshed. A vow to do differently.
