When Hemilco rang the bell to indicate that once more, a gathering was to take place, only four responded to his call. Panic and fear were had long since made their presence known at these meetings.

“By all the gods!” Hemilco wondered aloud. “What have we done to deserve this fate?” He asked as El Barto, Raith Kemmler, Al Sipsclar, and Montmorency gathered again. “It seems that we must make our choices count most dearly, for I do not believe we shall have another chance at this!”

“I must agree, my dear. The time is near, Vizier,” El Barto agreed. In a flash, El Barto withdrew a knife from his sleeve, and undid the throat of Montmorency, who had the misfortune to be standing nearby. At this same moment, Al Sipsclar delivered a devastating punch to the back of the head of Raith Kemmlar, and used his advantage to withdraw a sword from his belt and run the staggering fellow through.

“What? What is this? YOU are behind this, Hannu? You dared slay your own father and brother in this madness? What has possessed you?! And why would you support this insanity, Almelun?”

“It’s simple, you old fool,” Hannu began, her eyes beginning to flash dangerously. “I am as much an heir to the throne as my fool brother was. I was studious, and loyal, and gave my greatest effort in all that was requested of me. And my reward for this? To be married off to a noblemen so I might birth him sons and hang off his arm as a trophy? I think not. The throne shall go to those who take it. Yhirom should have desired it more.”

“As for myself,” Almelun began. “The king had forsook his authority. He denied myself my men our rightful plunder too many times in exchange for our risking our lives. The men were on the verge of mutiny, and that aloof oaf was too ignorant to realize it, wanting more to blather on about tolerance and mercy and achieving ‘peace’. Thankfully, someone in the royal family,” he continued with a nod to Hannu. “Realizes the real costs of power. Now, with apologies, dear Vizier,” he finished with a pause, raising his blade to Hemilco.

“Your services are no longer required,” Hannu finished for him as he slew the Vizier where he stood.

“Now, dear General, I tire of this place. Let us show the world this kingdom’s new face.”
