Only three months before he had bowed in this same hall with the same angry people in attendance. Only last time, they had been celebrating; celebrating his newly earned title of Knight of the Kingdom. But now they gathered for a different purpose. A far more dangerous purpose.
“…Convicted of treason and murder of the king.” The voice above him abruptly finished.
The sword suddenly fell.
