Goodbye My King 【2025-2027】

King Alaric was not a cruel man, but he was a comfortable one. He spent more time admiring the intricate carvings of his throne than he did walking the muddy streets of his kingdom.

As the impostor was led away, Alaric looked at his throne. He didn't sit down. Instead, he turned to his people, finally understanding that a king is defined not by the walls he hides behind, but by the service he provides to those outside them.
