A Gamble of Paintings and Poison (Fantasy Audio Drama)
ALevel1Bard for Seraphim Villiers
Seraphim is the 25 year old king of the Abandoned Order. The best way to describe him would be a jaded, fallen hero… He sounds tired and bored every time he speaks, and that’s because he is. Everything he’s worked for and all the good he hoped to do seems further and further from his reach with every passing day. His wife, Lydia, has taken complete control of the Order, and he’s powerless under her spell. Seraphim is a minor antagonist for the first book, but then becomes a central hero as the story progresses.
(Maggie: "Kindle trusts me") (Laugh)"I bet he does, fool that he is." (Maggie: "How does that make him a fool?") "Because he is too compassionate. One should never let emotions dictate their judgment."
(Kindle: "Get away from her or so help me I'll--") “You’ll what? As the captain of my guard it is your job to defend me, Kindle. If you do anything to the contrary, I could have you executed for treason.” (Pressing a knife to Maggie's throat.) “Or I could kill her. Both options, I think, would have the same effect on you.”
(A flashback, Seraphim is 18 and ready to lead a revolution.) "It is thanks to the king we are here instead of home with the parents he slaughtered. It is thanks to him our homelands are in ruins!"
