WELCOME TO EVIL ✔︎《 EDITING》

VISITED BY GUMSTOM RULERS

When it was morning Beatrice decided to go and meet Zed she had not seen Pharian since the last morning.

Zed was coming down the stairs when he saw Beatrice.

"Sire"She walked up to him and Zed turned to look at her.

"What is it?" He asked.

"I haven't seen Pharian for a long time now do you perhaps know where he is?" She asked worried.

"I do he will be with you soon I sent him on an important work" Zed said and Beatrice gave a sigh of relief then Zed walked away.

He was woken up by a maid who informed him of the king of Maratush who wanted to see him.

Zed walked to the throne room with some council men, ministers and knights.

"King Darius what a pleasure" Zed smiled and Darius bowed his head but there was no smile on his lips.

"My Lord I come here today with the elders of Gumstom to ask you for some thing that we have been suspicious of" Darius wasted no time and hit the nail on the head.

"And what may that be?" Zed asked unfazed.

"Rumors have been circulating round Gumstom that King Alexander is dead" Darius replied.

"And what does that have to do with me?" He asked.

"Nothing my lord we wish to question your wife Princess Skye on when last she saw or spoke to her father" Darius said.

"Are you insinuating that my wife is a suspect?" Zed asked.

"Not at all my lord we just need as much clues as evidences as possible" Darius replied.

"Why don't you just go to the castle and find out if it's Alexander that sits on the throne?" Zed asked.

"No one is allowed to enter the castle anymore" Darius said.

"Even the elders of Gumstom?" Zed smiled when Darius nodded.

"I do not wish to trouble my wife as she needs to be resting but I have not allowed her to go and meet her father for a long time but some weeks ago we had gone to visit Gumstom" Zed said and every one on the table looked intrigued including his own people.

"King Alexander was not sitting on the throne and the current king told us that he killed Alexander" Zed said and the Elders of Gumstom looked at each other then the king.

"If the king came to visit Gumstom I believe we would have all known"one of the elders spoke.

"Only if I allowed you too" Zed smiled.

"It was a brief meeting which made my wife sad so we returned home" Zed said.

"Are you sure of what you are telling us sire? " another elder asked.

"I have told you all I know and the person on the throne is not an ordinary person" Zed warned them if he had said it was the tribes that held Gumstom they would not believe him and think he was only mocking them.

"If so sire you didn't search for the king body or ordered for the man who killed him to be arrested?" An elder asked.

"I rule kristanlia, Gumstom is not my business" Zed replied.

"But your wife is the heir now that her father is dead" Darius stated.

"When and if she's ready she can always go back to be queen though she already is here" Zed replied a little smile crawling up his lips.

"The great elders of Gumstom coming to seek help from me" Zed laughed and the Elders frowned at his pride.

Rumors has it that he likes embarrassing and disrespecting the older generation.

"We shall be leaving now thank you for your time and support" Darius bowed his head.

"My pleasure" Zed smiled without returning the gesture.

"Elders?" Zed called as they rose to leave.

"Though the king may not live I believe you would be able to protect and provide for your people?" Zed asked.

"We will ensure that we do" an elder spoke on behalf of them.

"Keep safe" Zed smiled at them as they left leaving them with a lot to dwell on.

Zed made his way to Skye's chambers and found her standing by the window.

He began walking to her when she heard his footsteps.

"Good day" she greeted.

"Why is everybody being so formal with me" he smiled finally reaching her and stopped in front of her.
