So we know that Nolan was the son of Emperor Argell and that he was the heir to the throne of Viltrum. And when his father was murdered no one knew who Nolan was and their society fell into chaos. But how did no one know who he was? Why wasn’t Argell raising his heir and telling people who he was? Also, I’ve heard that Nolan had half-siblings is this right?
people are pointing out protection from assassin’s but also viltrumite are social darwinists it makes sense their heirs would be raised without knowledge of their royalty to ensure they grow as strong soldiers rather then getting by being pampered by kissasses, this also prevents succession a succession crisis, any royals who are not the chosen heir will simply never know
