Chapter 50

In the Avalonian castle, the Queen shakes the King frantically in his bedchamber, realizing the vital signs show him with no heartbeat.

"Where is the medical staff?"

"The Black Knight sent them home, my lady" answers the servant.

"Home? He has killed my husband."

"He was going to be killed anyway. He's just lucky that Drago got a hold of him before me," chimes in Paskel as he strolls through the castle doors, casually like he owns the place.

"How did you get here? Did you do this?"

"Not my work, if it were my doing, there would be no body at all."

"You will be killed, servant blare the alarms!"

"Do you not see the apocalypse before you? How do you think I got here so easily? You'd be surprised how distracted people are during war."

"What do you want? To kill me? Then do it! I'm dead already!" shouts the Queen.
