The rain came down in streams as the water collided against the surface of
a carriage. The horses neighed as they ran blindly through the onslaught of
pouring liquid. The driver muttered some curses and continued cracking his
whip.
The man all of a sudden pulled back the reigns he stroked the horses back and ran up the walkway. Then he lifted his hand and started banging against the door.
He waited a few minutes until an old woman answered the door.
"Is the baron present?"
The woman beckoned the man to enter the manor. The woman gave the man a dry cloth and quickly left. After he finished drying himself, he started stomping his foot patiently waiting for the baron's arrival. A few minutes went by when a voice interrupted his thoughts. "Can I help you?"
The driver lowered his head and handed the baron a letter. The blonde tore open the letter and started reading it. The driver watched the many emotions that drifted over the baron's face. The man took a step back when the noble ripped up the document and threw it on the floor. The baron turned around and picked up materials from the desk and tossed them against the wall.
"I understand."
The man shook at the nobles voice and hurried out the door. When he came back the noble still had that wild look in his eye. The old man helped the baron into the carriage once the occupants were seated he climbed onto the horse and took off.
During the two day ride the rain had stopped. When the carriage slowed the noble woke his sons. The children yawn and smiled at him.
Once awake they were escorted into the palace by a battalion of guards. One of the children clung to his father and stared at him with big green eyes.
"Father what's happening? Are they going to hurt us?"
The blonde hair man stroked his son's hair and smirked.
"Play your part and they won't."
The blonde's blue eyes moved from the boy to a wooden door covered in gold. The guards pulled open the doors and entered a room furnished in gold and rich redwood. The boys cringed and followed the blonde carrying their heads high and watched some nobles talk amongst themselves. Some of these elite members of society were either pointing or frowning at the accused man, while the others leered at his godlike physique.
Then a noble with no hair sauntered up to Nakago and pressed his lips close to the blonde man left ear."
"Well is this not a lovely day, eh Nakago? At last you will finally fall from grace like the rest of us."
The blonde was about to retort but the doors burst open and two men entered the room dressed in blue garbs. The older gentleman stood by the door and blew his trumpet; the room went in silence as the other's voice boom through the hall. "Ladies and gentleman our queen has arrived" A young woman wearing tan armor strolled through the doors with catlike grace as she walked in tune with the trumpets beat. Her advisors who nodded followed the young woman to the few nobles who bowed to the queen.
"Bless our queen"
