What is The Insipid Prince's Furtive Grab for the Throne about?

To the empire, Prince Arnold is one big joke, a completely inept prince outshone by his more talented twin, Leonard.

As the bloody battle for the throne intensifies after the crown prince’s death, Arnold pulls the strings from the shadows to crown his twin emperor to his own advantage.
