Kings Prologue: part 1 ----Kresen---- It was a dark rainy day, the sun was completely covered by the clouds and had turned the day into a night. The rain was pouring down very heavily, not a single soul could be seen in the city. Something was different about today, something was wrong. Master Kresen was reading in his chamber, his chamber was beneath the city castle, the it had no windows but a huge wooden door. He was reading on the great battle when he felt a cold breeze brush against his skin, soon after he felt rhythmic vibrations, having difficulty with his hearing, he realised that someone was inside his chamber. “Who’s there?” said master Kresen, “The guards of the kingdom” said a huge man armoured from head to toe, there were two other guards with him, the other guards were with a man no older than twenty five years of age. “He claims he has an important letter for the king, we did not want to disturb his grace with this so we brought him to you” said the armoured man. ‘I just desired to read and sleep, but you never get what you wish in this damned kingdom’ thought master Kresen to himself. “Give the letter here boy”, the man gave him a letter that was crunched and soaking wet, so he flipped the letter and there it was, red and hard, it looked genuine, ‘what in the fucking gods hell is this’ thought to himself while looking at he red seal of house brave heart. The letter was marked as king brave heart, Kresen knew, everything is about to change. The next day, the king was sat on his throne, while master Kresen was reading the letter received from brave heart. The throne room was crowded by the kings advisors and knights. Stood at the back of the hall was Sir Arthur, the kings proud son, calmly listening to master Kresen. The letter expressed brave hearts desire to split away from the unified kingdom and establish their own kingdom meaning they will no longer pay taxes or follow the kings laws. The king was sat silently while his advisors were in a heated discussion over what should be done, some urged to go to war and some simply suggested to have this young boy assassinated for his foolish bravery. This went on for quite some time. Arthur is not a man of patience so he walked from the back of the hall and knelt before his king and said, let me go and bring this bastards head. The advisors and the knights went into a roar of agreement and started cheering and and shouting… ENOUGH!!! The king stood and said, ‘ I want no bloodshed, no war, the realm has seen enough of these. He dismissed everyone except Arthur and master Kresen. ‘ Teach this blood thirsty idiot some history, haven’t we seen enough war boy?’ King said with a flush of anger across his face. Arthur looked at Udrick with hateful eyes and said ‘War will come sooner or later, these lords have no fucking love for our family, might be that you need to learn some history, have you forgotten what Roderick the mad did to them?’ the king slapped him across the face, Arthur fell off his chair, on the floor, he started laughing and murmured to himsef ‘Aggression is a sign of weakness’ with a grin on his face he continued on ‘ Roderick murdered every lord like a butcher and yet you expect no war at some point?… ‘ENOUGH of this foolishness’ he signalled to two of his shields to the seize him. ‘ Put them in the dungeons with no food or water, lets see how he likes that’. Arthur was taken by the kings shields while the king sat back down on his throne trying to think about the situation.
