3 MINUTES AGO: Dark Clouds Over Eleron Palace! Princess Bellatrix Breaks Down Confirming SAD NEWS About Duke Alaric, Royal Family Stunned Into Silence: “We Hid It… My Father…” SEE MORE BELOW
The Kingdom of Eleron is reeling tonight after a shocking, emotional announcement delivered by Princess Bellatrix of Eleron, whose trembling voice revealed a secret the royal family has hidden for years.
Moments after she stepped to the microphone, tears streaming down her face, she whispered:
“We hid it… my father… he has been suffering in silence.”
The room fell silent. Advisors froze. Even the royal guards seemed unable to breathe.
A Secret Buried Deep in the Palace
For months, whispers had circulated through palace corridors. Unexpected cancellations. Closed doors. Sudden changes in Duke Alaric’s public appearances. But no one — not even the senior courtiers — knew the truth.
Until tonight.
Princess Bellatrix revealed that Duke Alaric, beloved by the kingdom and known for his iron will, has been battling a rapidly progressing degenerative neurological disorder.
And he’s been hiding it… for nearly six years.
“He made us promise not to tell.”
Bellatrix, her voice cracking, explained:
“Father didn’t want the kingdom to see him weakening. He said a leader must walk tall… even when the world beneath him is collapsing.”
She described how Alaric would struggle to raise a cup, how his hands trembled when he thought no one was watching, how he forgot familiar places, familiar faces — even moments with her.
“Some days he didn’t remember he had a daughter,” she whispered, breaking down completely.
Queen Isolde rushed to her side, but Bellatrix insisted on continuing.
Royal Family in Shock
The revelation stunned the entire royal court.
Crown Prince Thorian reportedly collapsed into a chair, whispering:
“Father… why didn’t you tell us?”
Witnesses said Queen Isolde covered her mouth, tears streaming silently, before being escorted away by attendants.
Even palace staff — often accustomed to adversity — stood frozen, unable to process what they were hearing.
Why Reveal the Truth Now?
Princess Bellatrix explained that Duke Alaric’s condition worsened dramatically this week.
Last night, he allegedly suffered an episode during which he did not recognize the palace physician, nor his own wife.
“He begged us… ‘Please… don’t let the people see me like this.’”
But the royal family finally decided transparency was necessary — both for the kingdom and for Alaric’s dignity.
A Kingdom Mourns
Within minutes of the announcement, crowds gathered outside the palace, holding candles and white flowers — symbols of remembrance and hope.
Messages flooded the palace gates:
“We stand with you, Duke Alaric.”
“A strong leader, even in weakness.”
“The kingdom will carry you now.”
Online, the hashtag #StayStrongAlaric began trending across the continent.
The Unanswered Question
Bellatrix ended her statement with a chilling revelation:
“We must now accept that my father can no longer fulfill his duties. The future of the throne will change.”
A collective gasp rippled through the hall.
If Alaric steps down, the entire line of succession may shift — a political earthquake the kingdom has not faced in generations.
What Happens Next?
The Royal Council will meet tomorrow at dawn to discuss emergency transition protocols.
Meanwhile, Duke Alaric remains in the Moonspire Wing, surrounded by his closest family, as palace doctors prepare an intensive treatment plan.
Princess Bellatrix’s final words echoed through the hall:
“I love my father. Titles fade… but love remains.”
Tonight, the kingdom waits — heartbroken, uncertain, and united in sorrow.
