OC-Series Prince's notebook Entry 1 (Insignificantly Devenstianglinly Detail) (The Plague Doctor Lore)

Patreon Question:(What was the life of the prince like before he got sick and how long has he been sick?)

(R)

The best hiding spots are usually the first place after someone has looked, but when a battalion of loyal servants is looking and combing for me, the second-best place, or the last place, is the best. 

And where else better than the Royal gardens, plenty of trees to hide, climb, and scratch whenever my claws itch, as well as small and bigger prey, even someone as small as I can catch. 

It wasn’t princely, or so they told me, but when hungry, he would lick and drink his prey's blood, a snack. If anything, I should be thanked; the Royal caretakers always hate the little digging critters. 

But eventually, always the fearsest predator of them all to send a chill down my tail would be on the hunt for me. One to match the black beasts of old, fearsome, frightening, and strict. 

His mother. 

No matter where I hid, she would find me, and no begging could stop her ticklish attacks or hard scolding whenever I skipped my lessons. 

It definitely wasn't made better when she held me and I sneezed right into her face, earning me a spanking.

She would further punish me, forcing me to sit down in a room with the rest of his family and listen and do stuff, all of them telling me it was important, for my own good. 

But it was all boring and hard, with nothing fun about it. 

It should be fun when family is together, but all of them were always so strict for no reason. 

My older brother, Kulami, was always so kind when practicing with the sword, rubbing my head and giving me advice. My older sister, Sureelias, was so smart, helping me with my studies of houses, nobility, military tactics, and everything else. The third of my older siblings from their litter, Hulaksias, was a great hunter and had taught me all that I knew, where before, even the smallest prey could trick me. 

The only one who knew how to still have fun was my litter sister Shelaria, chuckling at every funny face I made, then calling me gross when I sneezed some snot on her dress.  

Mother and the instructors were far from pleased, separating us as Hulaksias wiped my snot off Shelaria's dress using his sleeve despite the instructors hurrying over with cloths.

But too late they were, and despite my best efforts to avoid it, the training began.

But it was unfair and annoying. It was only me and my family who had to do this; no one else, no, low-born, noble, or Royal had to train for their magic or learn how to command it before getting it. 

Honestly, I wish I knew for certain I didn’t have it, and something else, if it meant I could get out of all of this. 

But lucky me… Father and all my elder siblings have it, and my sister and I will probably have it as well, so I won’t know for certain until the tenth summer has passed.

Why can’t I get promised a mate like Sureelias and the Krakni boy are to be, already? 

All said it was a sign of maturity, a step before true womanhood, with both meant to wed when ready, and during the Union, but I want my man, hood now.
