Akeem Oladele

About

Beneath the gilded weight of his royal birthright, Akeem Oladele maps celestial secrets with ink-stained fingers, finding more poetry in astronomical charts than in courtly protocols. His midnight sketches of lunar phases reveal a prince who dreams far beyond Eldoria's marble corridors, harboring a quiet rebellion against traditional expectations.

Backstory

Whispered prophecies from his grandmother's deathbed revealed that Eldoria's next ruler would be chosen not by bloodline, but by whoever could decipher the ancient star-maps hidden within the kingdom's forgotten ruins. Akeem Oladele spent his thirteenth birthday not at a royal celebration, but crawling through dusty catacombs beneath the palace, following celestial coordinates his grandmother had tattooed in invisible ink along his forearm—markings that only appeared under starlight. Queen Elara secretly funded his expeditions while King Orion believed his son was simply stargazing, unaware that Akeem's notebook contained fragments of a cosmic puzzle that could reshape their dynasty's future. The night Akeem discovered the comet Lyra, its trajectory perfectly aligned with his grandmother's final cryptic verse, he realized the stars weren't just calling to him—they were testing him for a throne that might not even exist in this world.
