Around The Crown

CHAPTER 1.

Far away, in the land of wonders and forests which have never been discovered due for the villagers being so scared of it. Those woods, the woods so deep, that the longer you look into it, it seems the deeper you'll fall. Thus, up on the highest hill there is a palace placed, beautiful enormaus palace, guarded by golden gates, and it's knights being placed on each corner of it. The further you go inside the palace, there seems to be a lot of happening only in one specific room. The room where all ten major nations come together for a meeting. Enormous room, filled with each of the flags of major nation being putted behind the seats of a round table placed in the middle for kings and queens representing their nations.

-„ Have you checked the upper classes?"- asked the king of the right end of a round table. „ Yes, your majesty. It appears there has been couple of, shall I say, insurrection , going around your people..."-said the king's counselor, looking a bit pale and shivering while waiting forking's response. „ INSURRECTION?! FROM WHO!? THE BLOODY DUKES?! THOSE FILTHY SCUMB HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO BUT TO ASK FOR MORE THEN THEY ACTUALLY NEED?!WHAT RUBBISH!!-the king slammed into the table, creating a sound which awoke the other royals sitting withing the table. The counselor said with shivering voice – „ Y-Your majesty, p-please...I-It's not the dukes who raised their voices against yours...It's the slaves-„. The king raised from his seat faster then ever before, looking into counsolers eyes with pure rage „ What are you speaking of ?"- at the other end of the table there was a soft, but irritating giggle eckoing withing the room.  „ Looks like your doom has come quicker then said, my dear king of Amerigoves." – said the woman, resting her head on her hand, glearing at the king with a smirk on her face. – „ What are you trying to say?"- said the king giving the woman a stinky eye.- „ Those things whose word is going against the rules of our politicts, shall not see another day. If you let them be, I have nothing else to say to you then. I'll just sit and enjoy my tea with my dear son." - said the woman. The king let out a sigh, slowly scratching his head, then with a soft voice said holding back his anger –„ My dear queen of Englandia, doing such a thing, would require of me to execute half of my in prisoners, who also work in the mine. Less people, less gold to find on time." -  At the end of a hall, somebody is coming, no faces shown. Just a sound of somebody walking down a hall. –„ You seem to put them in the same spot as you do to us." –said the woman. The sound in the hall became louder.

„ They are not people, my king , they are not like us. They are objects who were send to serve us, nothing else nothing more."- as the woman finished her sentence, the door which sapareted the hall and the meeting room, suddenlly opened creating a sound, which would give you a thought that any second the door would crumble. –„ My, my, my! Have you already started the meeting? My heavens, looks like I have to speak to my coachman again. Can't be missing something important such as this." – said a woman, wearing a black dress with a cut at one side reveling her gray leg, same as her upper parts of the body, however her hands were black as night with abnormal long pointy nails. Her three horns covered with black veil, filled with rose patterns and the edge covered with the furr hid her face, only reveling her black lips, formed into a smile which would send shivers down your spine, as for the rest of her apperance. Behind her were six people following her, different sizes and shapes, yet carring some similarities as her. Taking each step as her, four enormous dogs, each of them are not only a different color, but also a shape of their bodies. „ My, so much time has passed since I've last been here, of course this palace has not even existed at that time." – said the woman while smiling. „ What are you?" – asked a king while a sweat driped down his head. „ What?" Not a „who" ? My dear king, no wonder no ones listening from your people when you're using all your prounoces wrong. Didn't you finished your studies?" – said a woman with an amused smile on her face, followed by couple of laughters from people behind her. „How dare you talk to his majesty in that tone using such vulguar words!?"- scremed another king sitting beside the king of Amerigoves. The woman looked at the king, sliding her head side by side. „ King of Nippon, a man whose name shall not be forgotten. Not by my people."- pointing her finger at the king.
