"Come with me." [b]Norarthur walks outside [/b] "STOP THE HANGING!"
-
[b]The men and women all turn towards Norathur.[/b] "She was found with a bloody knife in her child's room!" [b]One calls out.[/b] "P-please, my king, I was framed! A man came in... and put a knife in my hand... after killing my baby...." [b]The woman cries out.[/b]
-
"Why would he do such a thing?"
-
[spoiler]Take note: Somehow, the woman knew it was a man, although she claims she was asleep.[/spoiler] "I-I do not know his intentions...."
-
"And where were you? When this man placed the dagger In your hand?"
-
"I-I was in bed...."
-
"Sleeping?"
-
"Y-yes, of course...."
-
"If you were asleep. How do you know it was a man?"
-
[b]The woman's eyes widen, as the man runs up to Norathur, a knife in hand. He puts the knife to Norathur's throat.[/b]
-
[b]Norarthur elbows the man, causing him to lose grip on the knife [/b]
-
[b]The man stumbles back. One in the crowd calls out,[/b] "King Arthur! Your judgement?"
-
"Hang her."
-
"Of course. And the man?"
-
"Execute him for treason."
-
[b]Both the man and woman were executed that day. It was later found out the the man had not committed any crimes before that day. The townsmen believed Arthur to be cruel, for executing a man who was nearly completely clean.[/b]
-
[b]The man had put a blade against Arthur's throat. That was treason of the highest degree [/b]
-
[b]Guldan walks into the throne room.[/b] "Ah, Arthur. You must first see that before you are King, you are human. And, the man did not kill you. However, you have many years to learn, do not worry....." [b]Time speeds forward, and Arthur is 24. 6 years have passed since his hasty judgement on the man, and he hadn't made another one like that a single time after. 6 years of happiness, and the kingdom declared Arthur the greatest king of the lands. A man kneels before him, in full knight armor.[/b] "Brother, I must say, I disagree with your latest decision to demolish the building."
-
"Why is that?"
-
"It could have been used for supplying, and as a base for our army. In fact, I have been in disagreement with many of the decisions you have been making, lately."
-
"Brother. I do not see why you wish so much land go to the army."
-
"The army is important. If you do not see this, perhaps you should give the position of King to me."
-
"Brother. The kingdom lives in peace and prosperity. There is no need for so much focus on the army. They are strong enough as is."
-
[b]Arthur's brother laughs.[/b] "It is no longer in peace!" [b]Outside, the two halves of King Arthur's army clash. One stood, firmly besides King Arthur's ideals, while the other side was corrupted by his brother's way of thinking.[/b]
-
[b]NorArthur stands [/b] "What have you done?!"
