The longspread kingdom of Thanes , 1883, in the Royal Palace le Hector,
As the soilders sat laughing and drinking at the night bar, a commander came running in, panting heavily.
" She's called us"
" Everyone ; now!"
Each soilder drops the glass as it was and runs towards the court.
" Wh- What happened? Why's everyone in such a rush? They all left the drinks" said a server girl looking around..the entire place was empty within seconds
" Its her orders" said the bar tender wiping his hands
" Whose? Why were they afraid? They could've completed the drinks" asked a girl who was new in the town
" Or they could have lost their heads, come on we need to go" he said pushing her by his elbows
" Where?"
" To the queen"
In the palace halls,
"Why would she call us in the night?"
"God knows what's the matter..I think its-"
" Come on move"
discussed the castle guards..
In the magnificent court of the palace, spoke a certain someone
" I want their heads right by the night"
"But they're nobles my lord" exclaimed an advisor
" And how does that make me care?
Do as I command or I ll order the same for you"" I want you all to search for the men who did it and bring them to me right by the morning "
Ordered " the queen".. as she flinged her robe around and looked right into the military commander's eyes.
The sentence left all the guards standing stunned and scared. They knew that they had to follow her commands or would end up rotting in the black prisons.
"Who's she? "
asked the French trader with a scrunch on his face.." She's the queen" replied his side kick in a low voice..
"Marissa; Marissa Bane the first born of king Hector and the current ruler of Thanes and its people"
Said the gaurd who stood hearing the trader's conversation..
The people stood still as they watched her figure exit the regime court, with many wondering what had changed?

She had won wars and spared no mercy on the battlefield..Anyone who went against her was either hanged to death or had his body eaten away by the royal dogs.
" The criminals would be hanged tomorrow by morning by the queen's orders. Anyone who tries to save them would meet with a same end"
Everyone knew that it was meant to happen for none was forgived in the kingdom of Thanes, where the queen tolerated no crimes.
