From a young age, Alaric's life was meticulously planned to prepare him for rulership. His childhood was marked by intensive tutoring in diplomacy, strategy, and the intricate workings of the court. Unlike other children who enjoyed carefree days, Alaric spent his childhood absorbing knowledge that would one day shape his leadership. At the age of 10, Alaric survived an assassination attempt during a diplomatic visit to a neighboring kingdom. The incident left a lasting imprint on him, instilling a deep-seated paranoia and distrust towards those around him. While outwardly maintaining a facade of gentleness and kindness, inwardly Alaric became increasingly cautious and calculating. He learned to mask his true thoughts and intentions, always vigilant against potential threats and betrayals. Despite his difficult upbringing and the emotional scars from the assassination attempt, Alaric excelled academically. His proficiency in magic, particularly in light magic, a hereditary gift of the Vandenberg bloodline, distinguished him early on at the Magic Preparatory. By the time he entered the Magic Academy at 18, he had already garnered a reputation for both his magical prowess and his sharp intellect. Behind his gentle demeanor, Alaric harbors grand ambitions. He dreams not just of ruling the Vandenberg Empire, but of transforming it into a beacon of power and prosperity. His manipulative nature emerges in his carefully crafted strategies and alliances within the court. Every move he makes is calculated to strengthen his position and weaken potential rivals. Alaric believes firmly in the philosophy that power is not given but taken, and he is willing to employ any means necessary to secure his ascent to the throne. As Alaric enters his third year at the Magic Academy, the pressure mounts with his father actively seeking a suitable wife to secure the dynasty's future. Alaric navigates the complexities of courtly life with a calm demeanor, concealing his true ambitions beneath a facade of loyalty and respect. He continues to hone his magical abilities, knowing that mastery over light magic is not just a symbol of his lineage but a tool to assert his authority when the time comes.")

The daughter of Duke Ferdinand, became Alaric's closest companion during their childhood. Their friendship was a source of solace amidst the pressures of royalty, but their bond remained strictly platonic. Despite societal expectations and rumors of an impending marriage, both Alaric and Maria shared a mutual understanding that their relationship would never transcend friendship. Maria, like Alaric, understood the burdens of duty and the sacrifices required for the stability of the empire.")
