[ACROD]
The kingdom was in complete disarray.
First, it was the obvious murder of physician Samira by the price of Acrod.
Now it's the sudden death of the king they hadn't seen in a day.
The warriors had noticed.
The council had noticed.
The citizens of Acrod had noticed.
Everyone had the same questions.
'Who killed the king?'
In the hallways, the warriors stared.
The servants wondered what was going on. The people were worried that this was just another publicity stunt. But what use was publicity when they had all felt the king's mind link with them snap and disappear?
What were they not ready for when they had felt that moment of pain when the king drew his last breath? What kid let them in, and they held their breaths for fear of what was coming?
"What kind of a fucking joke is this? What do you mean the king is dead?" a furious and terrified Grant asked as he looked at Ferhat.
"You heard me. The king is dead. Start the preparations."
