Everyone knows how close Gil and Fritz were... I kinda see Fritz leaving the land to Gil, hence this random poem
in no way historically correct
The True Prince of Prussia
In a land far away
A land forgotten in time
Laid the land of Prussia.
Many a fine king it'd seen.
But once came a time
where a king had no heir
and fights broke out
to say who was king.
A young lad, a fine lad
a Teutonic Knight
who had known the past king oh so very well
Claimed to the priests and dukes and lords
he was the true prince of Prussia.
"NEIN! LIES!" they yelled
the young soldier stood still
"I promise, tis true" he said
they yelled and screamed
and the young knight stood silent
The true prince lay silent
appointed by the heirless late king
The dukes and nobles overpowered the young
soldier in court, and one of their greedy men rose to power
The true prince of Prussia kept quiet
loyally serving the land he loved
the land he should be ruler over
He watched in silence
as the greedy man plunged his great kingdom into ruins
A revolt was started and the great soldier put it down
"But sir, he murders out brothers and kills our kingdom!" citizens cried
the rightful prince kept quiet , and watched on.
Soon the man was conspired against
and he lay dead
again the arument came for he too was heirless
"I tell you once more, I am the true prince of Prussia"
They scorned and laughed, yelling
"Riffraff! Scum! Begone!"
a true soldier he was, staying silent.
A new king took over, a fool, a beast.
The land, his land, was plagued. He watched in horror
In fear, longing to save the land.
But the last king destroyed the land past being saved
And the land did perish.
The true prince stood in the ashes of his land
a tear on his proud cheek.
He took the crown he would never wear
and left the land that would forever be his.
