Legacy of Blackwood – Synopsis

Decades after Chris Blackwood reshaped the world, his empire stands unrivaled, with its influence stretching across nations. The Blackwood Union rules with absolute authority, dictating the course of history itself. But as the throne transitions to a new ruler, the balance of power shifts, and old alliances are tested.

Ethan Carter, the trusted right hand of Chris, has been named the new Supreme Ruler. With his appointment comes the weight of expectation, the burden of maintaining an empire built on dominance, and the whispers of betrayal lurking in the shadows.

Classic Blackwood and Christiana Blackwood—each with their own vision for the future—must decide where their loyalties lie. Skylar Blackwood, ever watchful, remains a force to be reckoned with, her ambitions far from fulfilled.

But as external threats rise and internal conflicts brew, the question remains: Will the Legacy of Blackwood thrive under new leadership, or will it collapse under the weight of its own power?

A tale of loyalty, ambition, and the price of absolute rule—Legacy of Blackwood begins.

The air in the war chamber was heavy with silence after Chris's decree. Everyone knew demotion was final—none dared to question it. But the team the boy once led could not remain without a commander.


I, Soren Vask, stepped forward and gave the decision.


"From this day forward," I said, voice steady, "Dave 5678 will be promoted to Commander of Unit Black Fang. He will lead with full authority."


A ripple passed through the soldiers. Dave himself froze for half a breath, then saluted sharply, fists across his chest.


"I will not fail, General!" he barked, fire in his eyes.


When Soren's words landed, it felt like thunder rolling through my chest. Commander. Just like that. The position the boy had lost, handed to me.


I turned to face my new team. My men. My responsibility. And among them, standing stiff, was him—the boy who once stood above me. Now a lieutenant under my command.


"Listen well!" I shouted, my voice sharp. "From today, discipline will tighten! We move as one blade, no hesitation. I am your commander—my word is final."


My eyes lingered on the boy. For a second, I almost softened—he had led them before. But no. That was weakness.


"Lieutenant," I said coldly, locking eyes with him, "you will follow my orders to the letter. Do not mistake past glory for present standing. Understood?"


He swallowed his pride, straightened, and snapped his salute.


The title stung him. I saw it in his eyes. But he obeyed.
