Princess Knight (1000) Timeline Explained – Every Event in Order

Sapphire's father, the King of Silverland, announced her as a boy at birth to protect her from Duke Duralumin, an evil nobleman who would seize the throne and oppress the kingdom if he knew there was no male heir. Since Silverland had no male successor, declaring Sapphire as a prince was the only way to keep her safe from Duralumin's ambitions.
