The Beginning After the End

The story

A king with unrivalled strength and no one he can truly call close dies and is reborn as a baby in a world of magic. He keeps his memories. This time he has parents, a home and the chance to grow up slowly, learning mana from the first page of a primer instead of from a throne. The question that drives the story is what he will do differently with a second life.
