Louis enlarged eyes fixed on the rumored dead king as he could not believe that he was present gazing at him.
Robert quickly put on his disguise and walked towards him giving him a sign not to say a word, "It is I Louis, I am alive, not dead and I need your help" He said to the bewildered soldier who couldn't get his eyes off him.
"But" Louis managed to say, his eyes scanning Robert in deep surprise, "King Robert if you are alive, why did your kingdom declare you dead?" He inquired with a confused expression.
"There is no time to explain Louis, I need you to go over to my Kingdom as a spy and get every information necessary, I need to take back the throne from my brother at all means, and having my identity kept a secret is what I want from you" Robert ket out to the confused soldier
Heavy footsteps were heard approaching the throne room, a cold sensation filled the atmosphere, the ray of sunlight penetrate through a window nearby causing brightness in the room. Fabian was seen seated on his throne, a hand on his beard as he stroked gently, his eyebrows squeezed in a frown as his other hand tapped the edge of his throne in an uneasy nature. Nicholas appeared alongside four other soldiers, in each hand were swords sharp enough to slice through any mortal, young or old. They had a stern expression on their face, their second hand clenched into a fist. "Any news Nicholas?" Fabian asked in a harsh tone, impatience in his voice. The huge soldier stepped c
A harsh wind overtook the night as the cries of crickets could be heard from afar. The noise of feet filled the woods, making the night far from safety. The sounds came nearer, revealing the faces of soldiers ordered by the king; each front of the men was a hardened expression; they marched around the kingdom with swords and sticks of firelight searching for witches they had to bring to the King for persecution. The villagers could hear the scream of a dying witch all over the domain, her cries piercing the hearts of people who watched her slowly burn to death. A few meters away from the palace where the witch burned fiercely on a stake, her torture so great bringing nothing but pain. A young witch stood behind a tree; an intense feeling of fear overtook her as she watched with widened eyes. The moon shone all over the place at its highest peak, making the pain in her rise without caution. She looked away as her eyes couldn't take more of it; her heart raced faster, her face
The sun shone as it began to set gradually. It was almost winter, which made the atmosphere damp, the sound of birds chirping softly. It is the 18th century in the kingdom of Linerdo, the great land of peace and equality. The sounds of galloping horses rode into the realm, heading towards the palace.They got closer to the palace, their horses moving in order as they galloped into the court; the sound of their feet attracted servants who turned their heads, staring at the strangers in dismay. The atmosphere in the palace, filled with life and activities as servants, was seen around, moving from one direction to another.Among the men who marched in, a hefty black man got down from his horse, glaring around with a stern face. He had an eye patch on one eye, making him look sternly. He gazed back at his men, who stood apart waiting for his order. He turned his head, his gaze fixed on the palace door which stood feet away. He looked up at the magnificent building before him
The sound of music filled everywhere as drums were played vigorously by the guards of the great kingdom. The crowd came into the palace, nobles of the land, kings, and queens of neighboring kingdoms who came riding in their horses and carriages. Servants went up and down the court with foods and drinks of different kinds in their hands. Each King stood with their wives as they walked into the large hall, an announcer calling their names as they stepped inside.Prince Robert looked out through his window to watch horses and carriages of different kings and nobles walk into the palace. He stood still with his eyes fixed outside as his servants dressed him in royal robes fit for a king. His hair was plaited down beautifully with a taste by his servants that was so attractive. He glanced at his reflection In the mirror; finally, the day his life will take a turn has come. He looked down at his servants,
"My King," Nicholas asserted with respect as he walked into the throne room. Robert glanced at him; he turned to his servant beside him and ordered him to leave, which the young man did immediately.Realizing they were alone, Robert looked up at Nicholas, who stood still; he glanced behind the man and was surprised to see him alone. "What of your men?" Robert asked with keen interest."My King," Nicholas proclaimed, his eyes fixed on the king before him, "They are at the outskirts guiding the kingdom, and I feel it's good I come here alone to give you this message."He let out.Robert peered at the black man with a curious expression, " And what message do you have?" He asked.Nicholas walked closer, his eye patch making him look deadly. "I got a message from a young man in this kingdom that a traitor lives among us here in your
The sound of horses was heard around the palace. Feets marched into the court fiercely without motion. The sounds escalated going into the throne room. Robert watched with keen eyes as the men stepped into the room. He sat on his throne, his gaze on the men. In front of the men stood a man, his hair brown and a bit grey. He wore a long cloak and had long sprunting beards and a mustache that added more look to his face. His eyes, stern and radiating nothing but wickedness as he walked in, his eyes locked with Robert's. " Good to see you, King Robert Of Linerdo," The man let out a high, but the irritated tone, his look fixed on the young prince as he walked closer; his men were standing behind him with hardened faces. Robert stared at the man with solid eyes, an expression of sur
Diala sat on a chair as the chirping of birds sounded like music in her ears.Her gaze fixed on her reflection in the mirror as a smile crept on her face.Gently she brushed her hair; she wore a pink man's loose gown, which flowed down to her knees. She stared at herself dreamy with emotions in her mind.The thought of Robert flashed through her mind, and her lips stretched into a broader smile. He has always been her dream man ever since she set her eyes on him years ago during his father's party, the day her heart melted as she sighted him. She watched him with keen eyes; his long black hair glowed, radiating with so much power that it took her breath away. His eyebrows, full and dark as night, his tall body, and red lips that moved to the rhythm of her heartbeat when he spoke, she couldn't get him off
A loud banging sound of a bell rang throughout the kingdom.In the palace gathered the soldiers of the kingdom. A proclamation was made by Robert declaring that no one in the kingdom should be seen outside their homes. The whole kingdom was quiet as the sounds of horses and soldiers marching towards the palace were heard.As the crowd of soldiers stood waiting for the arrival of the king. The palace was so quiet that a drop of a pin could be heard.Robert came forth and faced the soldiers, his eyes studying them one after the other. He wore armor along with the other soldiers who stood waiting for his command. Nicholas stood by his side, he looked up, it was still nighttime as the cries of crickets filled their ears."Soldiers Of Linerdo
