Setting the scene:

The Middle Ages, in a small kingdom, far off the map called Asaba.  It was a late night, and a punishment was being taken place at the front steps of the castle.  The King, Queen, and Eldest son of the land are there along with the rest of the village to watch it. 

A fire is burning, a woman on a stake getting her punishment for a crime committed.  The first in command of the army stands closest to the woman, for he was the one who set it.  The King sits with a smile on his face, for the law was in affect.  The sun was setting slowly over the tree line surrounding the village and only a single set of horse hooves could be heard in the wind. 

In the left tower of the castle the middle son stood, angrily watching the scene below.
