Kings and Kings
Dream nite of 18 April 2021
In the most basic sense it was about 2 kings that got overthrown by a civilization with new age technology. The kings couldn't adapt quick enough to fend them off so they got overthrown.
After a short while, they come back by themselves and their sons to take ahold of the kingdom once again. But they have to break into their stronghold that was transformed into a tech-trap. They manage to make it in but a trap triggers causing one of the father son pairs to leave the other behind. (It was the Higher King who left them behind) The other pair struggled and in a moment of regret the High King turned back and rescued his friend, costing him his life. The other three managed to make it out alive, but the King was so enraged he took the High King's only son and, using the power of the strange device they use for succession, removed the son from power and added his own. After the transfer of power, he exiled the High King's son.
I didn't dream what happened next but I can imagine that the exiled Prince trained until he was ready to ascend to take the crown back in a public challenge. But by that time, the other Prince had become king.
So when the High Prince came back to issue the challenge with an exchange of: Prince: "You've returned." HPrince: "Of course I've returned!" He said drawing his sword and pointing it at the Prince, "I am here to take back that which was mine at birthright. By the spirit of my father and my ancestors before him that crown belongs to me." The prince stepped down from the throne. His face unwavering at this challenge. "In all my years, I never thought I'd see you again. I... I am at a loss of voice." He crept closer to the High Prince. "Then remain speechless. That crown belongs to me." "You can have it." "Wha-" "Old friend." He had reached within striking distance of the High Prince's sword, "I never wanted to rule. I knew that, even as a child, you were the one that would lead this kingdom to greatness." He got to his knees, "I have been waiting all this time, in hopes that one day you might return, with a vengeance or not, to be strong enough to claim it. And with a hopeful heart, I will gladly hand it over. Without a fight. For the memories we shared as children, and for the future that we may share ruling together."
