The King's Court
Malik approached the King's court and informed the royal guard of his intention to speak with the King.
"Your Majesty" the guard bowed. Lord Malik requests the audience of the King.
"Ah! Malik is here! Let him in"
He bowed and opened the door for Malik.
*Long live the King"
"Long live King Jasper" - Malik cried
Jasper raised his hands to him in acknowledgement.
"What brings you here today Malik?"
There is an urgent matter that disturbs me Your Majesty. A certain people that seem treacherous.
In Penna? King Jasper asked.
I'm afraid so your majesty and not only on Penna but in all your provinces.
"Speak further Malik" the king ordered.
"Their laws are different from all other people and they do not keep the King's laws. Therefore it is not fitting for them to remain."
The king listened carefully....
"If it pleases the King, let a decree be written that they be destroyed and I am willing to pay ten thousand coins to those who work as me place the money ok the king's treasures."
It pleased the King and immediately he took off his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Malik, son of Aragod, the enemy of the Dorians.
King Jasper said, "I release the people and the money that is needed to carried out this operation, so do as you please."
Thank you your Majesty. I will go immediately to arrange it all. He bowed and left the King's court.
