The Two Lights
Cormac serves as a Prince of Coill Mór and a son of Queen Morrigan ni Foraoise and King-Consort Alistair of the Isles.
Though not the heir, his position within the royal line places him within the ever-present gaze of both his homeland and the wider Empire. He is a figure watched closely—not because of ambition, but because of what he represents.
He is not shaped for courts.
He is shaped for something older.
Cormac’s nature stands in contrast to the polished expectations of imperial life.
He prefers the deep woods of Coill Mór—the highlands, the untamed paths, the places where the forest still speaks freely—over the rigid stone halls of the Empire. In those wild places, he is at ease, moving with a familiarity that feels less learned and more inherited.
He is not rebellious without reason.
He simply belongs to a world that does not bend easily to crowns and ceremonies.
As the younger brother of Rhiannon, heir to the throne, Cormac exists within the sphere of royal expectation without the direct burden of succession.
This grants him a freedom many princes do not possess—yet it also places him in a position where his purpose must be defined beyond inheritance.
He is watched not for what he will inherit, but for what he may choose to become.
Cormac’s loyalty lies first with his family.
He is fiercely protective of his sisters, Rhiannon and Elowen, carrying a quiet intensity that surfaces whenever their safety or dignity is threatened. Where others might negotiate or hesitate, Cormac’s instincts lean toward defense—swift, decisive, and rooted in something deeply personal.
He does not speak often of duty.
He acts on it.
Though he resists the confines of imperial life, Cormac is not blind to its realities.
Within the courts of Maurim, he has engaged in quiet, deliberate conversations with Belén Walid, exploring ways to navigate the shifting ambitions that surround them. These exchanges reveal a mind more perceptive than many assume—a prince who listens before he speaks, and who understands that survival within the Empire requires more than strength alone.
He does not seek influence.
But he is learning how it moves.
Cormac exists between two identities:
The child of the forest, loyal to the traditions of Foraoise
The prince of a vassal kingdom, bound to an empire he does not fully trust
This tension defines him.
He does not reject the Empire outright, but he remains wary of its Light—seeing in it something that threatens the balance his people hold sacred.
He walks its halls when required.
But his spirit never leaves the trees.
Cormac’s devotion to Foraoise, Keeper of the Forest, is instinctive rather than ceremonial.
He understands the Living Root not as doctrine, but as truth—something felt in the soil, the air, and the quiet rhythms of life that exist beyond human rule.
Where others pray, he listens.
Where others follow, he remembers.
Cormac of Coill Mór is not yet defined by title or triumph.
He is defined by potential—and by the quiet resistance that lives within him.
In a world where empires rise and alliances are forged in gold and fire, he remains something rarer: A prince who has not forgotten the sound of the forest.
And if the day comes when that forest is threatened—
it will not be the courts that shape his answer.
It will be the wild that raised him.
