Once Upon A Kingdom: Chapter 8B
1. ONCE UPON A
KINGDOM
A Build A Royal Kingdom Challenge
2. The new district of Hyperia presented a world of opportunity for the growing populace, it was wild, rugged
and completely open for new settlers. And the land was cheap too, which was also a bonus.
3. So what better place for the new castle than here? King Derek ordered that a new castle be built in the new
district right away before the third generation was ready to leave for the new college that just recently opened.
It was also a fresh start for the Rothgates after the deaths of their beloved King Henry and Queen Celia.
This castle was King Derek’s, and not his parents’ castle.
4. Hinamori was overjoyed with how well her daughter could play the piano, her skills would certainly catch the
attentions of a wealthy foreign lord once she was of age. That was the plan for her, to make sure that
Ophelia had all the right skills and connections to ensure that the family would have more influence when the
time came for one of the Kasumi bloodline to claim the throne of Hyperia. A legitimate claim can be made
since Prince Xander is the second oldest of the royal line. Since the untimely death of her twin Shuuhei,
Hinamori felt it was now her duty to make their father’s dream of seeing a Kasumi on the throne a reality.
Kira was useless, and had no ambition. He betrayed the family; at least she and her sister Rangiku thought
so. The thought of her brother’s heir Renji being raised by Kira grated at her though; he should be the one to
carry on the family’s bid for the throne, instead, he’ll be turned into a bleeding heart like Kira. But
Hinamori could do nothing about it, she was married to a Rothgate and a woman.
5. A few days later, she went into labour with their third child. Xander hoped for a son, while Hinamori
wanted another girl. William was hard to turn, he was too much like his father in that regard; however that
did not mean that Hinamori couldn’t still “influence” her son’s potential lovers to see things her way, or to
get the ones she didn’t approve of to leave him. A boy’s first love is always his mother so that gave Hinamori
a strong sense of power over William that even Xander could not change.
6. Hinamori got her wish and was rewarded with another daughter. Her name was Victoria, and she took
after her big sister in looks. Her older twins will be coming of age soon and that meant her plan could begin.
7. Prince Xander was not as oblivious to what his wife was doing to their older daughter as she thought; he
saw the gleam in Hinamori’s eye when she spent time with Ophelia. She clearly favoured her over
William. But one look at his younger daughter Victoria told Xander that Hinamori would have a much
harder time controlling her than Ophelia.

A nice Gemini? O-o? I guess Xander was right about her…
9. Victoria was a sweet child, and it seemed only right that she would gravitate towards William more than
Ophelia. To Xander, this was a good sign. Hinamori would have a harder time turning Victoria.
10. Ophelia did try though, it was unclear at this point as to which way Victoria would turn. Xander could
only cross his fingers and hope for the best.
11. William had a strong interest in painting and he said he would like to sell ten masterpieces and become an
Artist once he finished college. His dream was to open an Art Gallery where other artisans could come to see
his work and display some of their own. Xander was thrilled that his son wanted to bring culture to
Hyperia and encouraged him every way he could towards that dream.
12. One day however, Hinamori had caught William painting and she yelled at him for wasting his time on
frivolous pursuits. Xander stepped in and shut her down for it, but young William was devastated that his
parents were fighting over him.
Hinamori quickly changed her tune and immediately tried to repair the damage she did. She couldn’t afford
to alienate her son when he was so close to coming of age.
13. William was far too nice for his own good, so calming him down took a lot of effort. No Kasumi male
would ever act like this in her father’s house; he would probably have been beaten for showing such appalling
weakness like that. Kira had come close once or twice as kid, though he was not as bad as William, but he
always managed to escape Erian’s wrath, thanks largely in part to Shuuhei defending his brother.
14. Soon it was time for her twins to come of age, so she could start matchmaking for them. Xander was just
happy to see his children growing so well and healthy.

16. Prince Nicholas and Lady Lilly were expecting once more. Nicholas wanted another son, desperately so, but
he did not impress that upon his wife. He had too many daughters in his opinion, after all, he was the third
of four boys. He wanted the same for himself.
17. He knew leaving her in such a state was risky, this time his beloved father in law was not around to see to
her in his absence. Someone had to work to keep food on the table, and Nicholas was the only one who
could.
18. He was disappointed yet again when Lilly birthed two more daughters Amy and Ariel. But he did not say
anything to her, she was over the moon with four daughters. And…honestly, happy wife means happy life
right?
20. At least she was happy with him, his older brother on the other hand, had to deal with Hinamori…if Lilly
were like that, Nicholas didn’t know what he would do. So perhaps he’d be better off keeping his
disappointment with four daughters to himself.
21. The other set of twins, Andrew and Mary, had their next birthdays soon after their younger sisters.
Nicholas had to make do with only one son, but he would make sure that Andrew turned out to be the
best young man he could be.

22. Rangiku and Goopy’s twins were due to grow up too, their further attempts to have more children have
failed. Though that made Goopy happy, the less the better for him. He was Romantic in nature and it was
hard to be that when their were screaming brats everywhere. He did his duty as a Noble of Hyperia and
produced an heir; and as far as the law was concerned he was freed of any further obligations.
24. The twins, once changed, were set to skilling at the request of their mother. She wanted them to be top of
their class once they began schooling with their cousins; it was one thing that Rangiku wanted most of all,
to show up her sister. The two had always thrived on the friendly rivalry since they were kids themselves.
Currently Hinamori had the upper had with three kids and she with two. But it was enough to keep
Goopy happy and that was worth more to Rangiku.
25. And it meant more time for them to be a couple. Rangiku had that advantage over her sister, Hinamori
knew that Xander only tolerated her because there is no such thing as divorce in Hyperia, she figured
that out when she saw how distant he had become after the birth of Victoria.
26. Rangiku didn’t want that to happen to her, so she was secretly glad that their frequent couplings did not
take effect in pregnancy. Goopy had his heir, his duty was fulfilled as a citizen and that was enough for
Rangiku.
27. Micah found he had an interest in Nature, and was outside bug hunting as often as he could. Rangiku
didn’t mind that her son was into bug hunting, as long as he didn’t bring in any live ones of course.
28. His sister on the other hand hated it. She did go out with him at first, because she wanted to play with her
twin, but soon found out that poking a bee hive often ended badly. And her mother was furious that she ruined
her new dress with filth so Michaela never went bug hunting again.
30. At the Grove Estate, it was a rather slow week, the triplet boys were ready to begin school and their servant
Gabriella Newson had not yet arrived. Kindle was not overly upset about it, though Kennedy was. Kindle
really didn’t like the idea of servants in her home, it felt odd since she never had one growing up. But
Kennedy insisted that she take one on, he grew up with them at his estate and to him it was natural for a
Noble household to have servants working for them.
31. Two of their triplets preferred to study, the third and the heir Jason would rather be out meeting people
than staying home, but as a child that was not an option. Jeremy and Jacob liked their books.

35. Over at the Cormier household, Ricky’s wish for a boy was once more dashed when Dahlia welcomed yet
another girl, Gabrielle. She would have to get pregnant again, Ricky needed his heir.
36. Ricky: You do understand how important it is to me to have an heir right?
Dahlia: Of course…
Ricky: Then you know that if this baby is another girl, you will have to keep getting
pregnant right?
Dahlia: I do. I know the law and the new five child limit which was imposed recently.
Ricky: And this will be three.
37. Though it was not to be, another daughter was born. So Violetta made the third daughter for the Cormier
family.
39. Which meant they had two more chances to have an heir and Dahlia knew what had to be done. She
prayed that this would be the last time she had to do this, her mother may have had five kids too, but
Dahlia wasn’t prepared to do the same.
40. Thankfully, this time would be her last. She birthed twin boys Luc and Andre and her days of
pregnancy were finally over with.
41. The oldest, Marie was happy to have sisters to outnumber brothers with. She didn’t understand why
having brothers was so important to her daddy, weren’t girls just as good? Talk at school from the other
girls in her class had the same puzzling effect; they didn’t understand it either. Every one of them had
brothers, and until Luc and Andre were born, Marie was the exception. She tried to teach Violetta the
same nursery rhyme she remembered learning when she was young, but she didn’t seem to like it.
42. Marie: Gabrielle liked learning the rhyme…I don’t get it.

43. Ricky gladly bounced his heir Luc as he prepared to blow out the candles on his cake. Dahlia saw how
happy he was with his sons, she just hoped he didn’t forget he had daughters who needed him too…
45. Gabrielle and Violetta had their birthdays at the same time as their brothers. So once they changed they sat
down to play with their little brothers for a bit. Tomorrow they would be starting school with Marie.
