This immediately placed several royal burdens onto his shoulders once he reached his teen years. His father was a military leader but wanted his son to be his own man.Having the finest education in their empire caused a fundamental shift in the young princes mind, one that remains to day.  As the majority of his society were paranoid of the outside world and only traded with other cultures rarely and saw outsiders as enemies. Vakarius' intellectual mind saw an opportunity to explore and learn. Convincing his father to allow him to explore the realm was a hard and long fought battle, but eventually he was given a token force of ships and minor authority to act in his fathers name. This action many saw as just a way to shut up the prince. Being as resourceful has he had taught himself, using this token force he was able to barter several minor trade agreements that were extremely profitable to both himself and his Empire.<br/><br/>This small shift in politics caused a rift to form between the other royals. Such a progressive manner, even though small as it was. Was seen as a dynamic threat to their society. His father protected his son from much of the backlash and performed the necessary damage control. It wasn't until Vakarius was put in charge of several operations to take down pirates, and rebel groups that the King had the proof that he needed about the abilities of Vakarius. He had shown that he was capable of protecting the realm in a better capacity than what was thought of an intellectual Prince. With new found support, although begrudgingly of the royal court, Vakarius began to open more and more trade and diplomatic negotiations with several planets and cultures. More and more ships have been placed at his disposal. Now Vakarius' exploration fleets search known space for ancient artifacts, technology, and expansion of the Empire. Even the planet of Takrin, long held societal enemy of Nesstren, Vakarius has begun to try and open up trade and negotiations with the Empress. Progress has been slow but has been starting to make real traction. Some question as to if Vakarius is really interested in progressive tendencies or if he is just making a powerbase for himself.
