"Good evening my queen" I say to her as she walks in to the dining room. I say dining room but it's more of a hall; a dining hall.
"You come home with a smile on your face, a beautiful smile, a smile they can light up the sky's and outshine the moon and the stars. What has made you so happy my dear?"

I look in her eyes and move a beautiful blonde curl of hair away from her face

"My husband, I bring happy news!" I take my golden crown off my head and place it on the fragile table, "The news I bring is that we have a new stable master and the new soldiers have begun their training and will bring peace to the streets of Domfrica!"

"Excellent! We shall drink to this in celebration!" I look around for the knave, "You boy! Fetch a bottle of the finest wine from the kitchen! Do it quickly as we need to celebrate!"

A loud knock booms from the towering door. "Come in" I say curiously. The doors peer open slowly. Stood there is the local drunkard in the hands of one of the guards.

"Sorry to bother you your highness. But this man has something he says he urgently needs to tell you."

"Hurry up and tell me. I'm trying to celebrate here."

The man points at me "I'm here to warn you. If you do not stop your sin will curse Domfrica and the stone walls will be destroyed."

What is he talking about. I am a very patient man but this man comes into my home and slurs nonsense at me. "Who do you think you are? Guard take him away. He's talking rubbish. I'm in the middle of a celebration."

I see the guard drag the insane idiot out and the door slams behind them like an earthquake.

"So, where were we my dear?"
