An exiled emperor joins a resistance group to find and restore the throne’s rightful heir – his long-lost son – from his tyrannical brother.
Its working title is “The Throne of Thorns”.

Most of the story points are here, I don't believe the logline needs any significant changes.
From a story standpoint:
I do wonder why the Emperor is not trying to get his throne back for himself? Instead, the lead is attempting to secure the throne for his "Long-lost son"
Normally people in power do not want to give up power. Wouldn't the exiled emperor be the rightful ruler? Why secure the throne for a person he seems to not even know?
