Prince Atreus, the eldest son of King Aldric and Queen Elysia, was burdened by the weight of the prophecy. He could not shake the feeling of unease that settled in his chest, knowing that his parents' fate was sealed in battle.

One day, as he watched his parents from afar, a sense of sorrow washed over him. He knew that he would soon lose them, and the thought filled him with a deep sadness. Unable to keep his feelings bottled up any longer, he sought out his sister, Princess Monica, hoping to find solace in her company.

Finding Monica in the garden, Atreus sat down beside her, his expression solemn. "Monica, I need to talk to you about something important," he began, his voice tinged with sadness.

Monica looked up, concern evident in her eyes. "What is it, Atreus? You seem troubled."

Atreus confided in Monica his feelings of frustration and sadness. He couldn't shake the feeling that he should be the one to rule the kingdom after their parents, but the prophecy suggested otherwise. Monica listened attentively, offering words of comfort and reassurance.

"You are a born leader, Atreus," Monica said, placing a hand on his shoulder. "But fate has a way of guiding us down unexpected paths. We must trust that everything will unfold as it should."

Atreus nodded, grateful for his sister's words of wisdom. He knew that Monica was right, but the thought of losing their parents weighed heavily on his heart.
