So as not to cause any confusion. I want to make clear. Dimitri’s mother was the illegitimate child of the first king and his mistress. The king also had two other children by his wife the queen. One of which was the heir to the throne and became king. This king is the one whose wife and child died in the begining of our story and he himself was killed. His brother Elmer was then also killed. Dimitri’s mother was never recognized as one of the kings children as she was only a female child and he already had an heir and a “spare”. However, feeling guilty, the king claimed her as his own in his will. No one thought anything of it, as both his male children survived quite well to adulthood. Now however both of them are dead, the reigning king, his wife and child as well. The only survivor of the Royal family blood though “tainted” is Dimitri.
I hope this clears up any confusion. I know I kind of left some holes. {^_^}
