He was discriminated by his other siblings for having uniquely colored eyes, leading him to be chased around or ignored in fear. Despite living in the castle, he was constantly ignored and starved because of his identity as one of many children to the king, as well as being the son of a mere commoner. Cezar was helped by one of the oldest sons of the former King, who started to take care of him after his mother passed away. Through his older brother, he was given food, education, and treatment as a member of royalty.

When Cezar became 15 years old, he left the castle because he felt he didn't belong there, which his brother supported.
