City On Fire // Young Royals
"Okay," he whispers, lacing their fingers together, "let's start a revolution."•••Simon did not tiptoe into the background. He did not whisper. He crashed into Wilhelm; and he sang and spoke so full of heart, that he became the subject of every picture Wilhelm wanted to paint. Showed him how to live. Taught him to love himself in order to love another.After publicly damaging his reputation, Prince Wilhelm of Sweden is all but chained to the palace grounds, forced to finish his education in the company of only his family and his tutors. The silence inside this bubble is crushing him, but outside, it is not so stagnant. Something is stirring within the working class, something volatile and flammable. The monarchy is a flimsy thing in the face of brewing revolution. When Wilhelm notices something more sinister about the conditions in Sweden, he is doubting everything about his identity, his duty - but holds fast to the ideology that perhaps the people who make the rules have the right to break them for the greater good.Friendship. Family. Treachery. Revolt.How many classes can they chop society into before someone raises a voice or a fist in protest? How many times can forgiveness be granted, like an endless third wish?What blazes brighter - love, or a city on fire?This is a story of the alternative. There is always another way. Wilhelm and Simon. •••(I don't own Young Royals. I wish I did, but no. All rights go to the creators, Rojda Sekersöz and Lisa Ambjörn. And if you haven't watched it, what are you doing here?
