Trickster's Ascent

Comradery for years 
Turned bitter, harsh, and rough.
For the role that he had trained for
He was no longer enough.
 
Cheated of his birth right
Slighted by his kin
And in this time of turmoil
His rage gathered within.
 
The only consolation 
Was his mother, strong and willed
But now a blade had taken her
The wielder must be killed
 
Vengeance been exacted 
Brother’s gone away
When the throne is left devoid
The mischievous will play.
