So in the second book in the series Flare is called into the king of Telurs office and is told that his father did not rape his mother and the king tells Flare that he is his father and because of the prophecy that talks of a half elf half human that restores the dragon order and is heir to both kingdoms. So his parents kept it a secret and then the king then tells Flare that he is going to adopt him so as to right a wrong so to speak. so then flare is introduced to the kings other children the older ones do not like him because they are all sort of stuck up but the younger ones are all nice and amiable towards him. Flare is upset because this will compicate his life and he doesnt want to change what he does but then he is told he doesnt have to change perfessions. The next thing that happens is Flare is introduced to a sorcerer and the sorcerers job is to teach flare about all the nobble families in telur and their history so he doesnt make a mistake when introduced to the ither nobles. The sorcerer also starts to teach flare sorcery and it is illegal for a warrior to learn magic in any way because of the church. So i wasnt really suprised when the king told flare he was his son i expected it but it was a suprise when the king adopted flare that made things really sucky i mean now that flare is a hero all of a sudden the king decides to tell him like now he is worthy its sort of a slap in the face in my opinion but thats just me. Anyway so when flare started to learn sorcery i was exited its a big thing it predicts a lot of exitment and conflict with the church. And the more exitement the better in my opinion. then the kings older children what do they think they are better than flare he is already a prince and a war hero i would be really ticked at them if i was flare because the only thing that they have done in their life that was note worthy was that they were born into royalty. ................................. ......SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESH
