The Prince's Gambit
Prince Alistair’s royal magic is laughable: a 0.02% chance of a direct order being obeyed. Framed by his brother and betrayed by his lover, the captain of the guard, he’s sent to a suicide legion. Facing hordes of beasts, he learns each failed command empowers the next. He begins issuing thousands of trivial orders to the monsters, stacking his authority with every failure. He is preparing for one single, irresistible command—not for a monster, but for the prince on the throne who sentenced him to death.
