Fantasy royal wizard and queen cradle their newborn baby in a sunlit castle nursery
Warm golden hour light filters through ornate nursery windows, where a rugged robed wizard king holding a glowing crystal staff stands beside his blonde queen seated in a leather armchair holding their swaddled newborn. The soft, tender scene features rich deep blue and cream period fantasy decor, with a sprawling fairy tale castle and mountain valley visible outside the window. The gentle, hopeful mood evokes cozy high fantasy royal family lore, rendered in a hyperrealistic cinematic art style.

Hmmm. The concept as I have it in my mind, is how things would be today, if something very bad had not happened. I have put a hint of it in "Rescue Mission' Chapter 2 in the conversation between Takkis and Cobra.

Nice image; you could create a story where he travels to another dimension and encounters a version of himself who lacks magical powers—living as an ordinary farmer with family.

Thank you very much, my frined foe your tip. Unfortunately, read the text... this is something that COULD have happened.... but it didn't....

A great idea my friend! What I have in mind is very tragic and considers the actual Wizard we all know and love...
