My son lays dead now Philippe . Now the throne remains empty if I was to die . and I'm not getting younger .
Philippe just nodded his head , as he felt it was best to remain silent in such a time .
The king once again looked at Philippe . I have a secret to tell you , and you are to tell this to no one under any circumstances .
Philippe stood firmly , I pledge to the kingdom and I shall hang if I betray you sir .
Ok , thank you for the confirmation . Somewhere in these lands is a son I have from a lover . A lover I have not seen in 27 years . A Son who is born to the lover , he has the right to my throne . I do not know his whereabouts , I have no information about the two of them . I want you to find them and bring them in .
Yes Sir replied Phillippe .
Start early tomorrow , head to the main library .
Yes Sir , nodded Philippe with utmost sincerity . Quite visibly hiding the gravity of the situation and the task that is entrusted on him
And from there on , said the king . You are on your own . And time Philippe you don't have much time . And one last thing , act with utmost discretion
