According to the history Ayah learned, although King Uther was the eldest prince, his character was disliked by the old king, far less favored than his two younger brothers.
Rumors circulated that the old king planned to choose one of the two brothers to succeed the throne, not intending to pass it to King Uther.
This rumor was so detailed that it was hard not to believe, especially since the old king did not deny it publicly, causing a stir throughout the city.
Later, the old king passed away hastily without leaving a will, so according to tradition, King Uther should inherit the throne.
However, the other two princes were dissatisfied with tradition and secretly colluded with some court mages and nobles, offering great wealth, and launched a coup one night.
King Uther was nearly killed in the unexpected attack, but at the crucial moment, Merlin Mage descended from the heavens, defeated his two brothers, and helped him ascend the throne.
