"...Really?
So even though you were asleep, you knew it was...a male."

-
[spoiler]Yes, yes you are.[/spoiler] [b]The woman can't seem to respond. As for the man, he angrily grabs a nearby knife, and holds it to Yuria's throat.[/b]
-
[spoiler]Why thank you.[/spoiler] [b]YuriArthur elbows the man in the gut, knocking him back. He draws Excalibur, in a combat stance.[/b] "Drop the knife. NOW."
-
[spoiler]Yw :3[/spoiler] [b]The man raises his hands, dropping the knife.[/b] "What is your final judgement, your highness?" [b]An onlooker asks.[/b]
-
"The woman shall pay with her life. She took the child's life. She deserves it. As for you..." [b]YuriArthur looks at the man.[/b] "You will be thrown in prison. However long you will stay there, we shall see. Take him away."

Edited by Cazberry Pie: 7/27/2016 3:43:09 AM[b]The man is dragged away, as the woman is hung. The town seems happy with Yuria's judgement....[/b] [b]Time skips ahead, to show Yuria, 26, on her throne, speaking to a knight.[/b] "My lord, my brother... I highly disagree with your last decision to let the man live." [spoiler]Different dude[/spoiler]
-
"Brother, he yielded, and dropped his weapon. Do you think he deserves death?"
-
"He was a criminal, either way, Arthur. In fact, I have not been exactly... in agreement, with many of your decisions, as of late."
-
"Explain what you mean by that, please."
-
"I mean, I feel as though you should no longer be King. I have convinced many in your army to think the same way." [b]He looks up.[/b] "[i]Brother.[/i]"
-
"Oh..." [b]YuriArthur sighs.[/b]
-
"It's already begun." [b]Outside the castle, hundreds of knights and warriors clash.[/b] "Well, brother? What does the King plan on doing?"
-
"You started a war... I believe that I must finish it." [b]YuriArthur rises.[/b]
-
"So quickly, brother?" [b]Knights rush into the room, guarding Arthur's brother.[/b] "I'm afraid now is not the time." [b]The knights usher Arthur's brother out.... Time speeds by, and it is ten years later, however, Arthur seemed to have stopped aging at 29. His civilians lay, dead, on the ground, and everywhere, his army was dead, as well. Only his brother stood in front of him, wearing full battle gear.[/b] "Ah, brother... look what Camelot has come to."
-
"Why all of this? So many deaths, but for what purpose? So you could become the king yourself?"
-
[b]He laughs maniacally.[/b] "Who would want to be king," [b]He shouts, running at Yuria.[/b] "Of a dead kingdom!" [b]He lashes at Yuria with his sword.[/b]
-
"You fool!" [b]Parrying his weapon, YuriArthur retaliates with swiping at his opponent's arm quickly.[/b]
-
[b]Excalibur slices clean through Arthur's brothers body, and he falls to the ground, dead. Everybody around Yuria is dead. The civilians, her/his parents, her/his army, and worst of all; his/her brother, the beloved brother. Yuria feels an inescapable sense of dread.[/b]
-
[spoiler]Does this mean that YuriArthur kills themselves?[/spoiler] "No...No..." [b]YuriArthur looks at Excalibur, realizing what they had done.[/b] "...I..." [b]They slowly raise the blade, the tip pointed at their chest.[/b]
-
[spoiler]Yesh.[/spoiler] [b]As the sword reaches his/her chest, Arthur pulls Excalibur away from Yuria.[/b] "I believe that's all that needs to be seen...." [b]He says, sighing.[/b]
-
[b]Yuria screams, jumping back and hitting the wall.[/b] "Oh n...no...I'm so sorry, I...I didn't know..."
-
"It's fine, Yuria. Mistakes will be made. And as you saw... I've made plenty." [b]He sheathes Excalibur.[/b] "I murdered my own brother. Everybody lay dead, around me. I committed suicide." [b]He sighs, and looks at Yuria.[/b] "Well, now you know the truth behind King Arthur."
-
[b]She looks at him.[/b] "...But you're a legend. You had a purpose to do the things you did. You've always seemed like a good person. If you knew who I really was... I'd be surprised if you'd even want to speak to me ever again."
-
"Yuria. I've said it before, I'll say it again, and I will make sure that it is said over and over again after my death. The past is the past. I do not judge people based on past actions, but on the ones they make in the present."
-
"Hmm. Fine. I should leave."
-
[b]Arthur smiles, and gestures towards his door. It's wide open, and Anri, Ornstein, and Smough stand outside, poking their heads in.[/b]
