A few women approached the queen and kissed her hand.

"Praise her."

The queen smiled politely and continued to stroll down the rugged covered walkway. When she passed the baron her body froze at the cold smile he cast on her. The woman shook off her fear and started climbing up the marble staircase.

On the last step she spun on her heel to face the crowd. The woman formed a fist with her left hand pressed it against her chest. All the people except Nakago repeated this action.

The woman seated herself onto the plush throne and looked straight at Nakago focused all of her attention on the baron who stared at her defiantly. His supple body tensed up as a guard belted him in the stomach. The noble snarled and lowered himself into a kneeling position.

" Rise baron."

In the blonde's eyes the occupants of the room just faded away. In his mind the people were motionless beings who like the pendulum swayed back and forth till the battery went out. He balled his hands into fist, and listened to the sounds bounce off the wall as tears began to fall from his eyes.

"Baron I am sorry for your lost, but it is out of my hands."

The whole assembly hushed and looked at the queen.

"Nakago your lover betrayed this kingdom and lost our trust. I should have punished him for his insubordinate attitude. Then again his death saved me the trouble of issuing it. "

His sons' eyes bored into the woman's eyes with fury. The noble turned around and began to casually walk out of the assembly

"How dare you turn your back on me."

The noble stopped in his tracks and faced her as he raised his hand and pointed his finger at the woman.

"You traitorous b*tch. You accused my husband of doing a wrong, but he was innocent. Oh queen of the charlatan's he was not the only one who deceived this country. Do you remember our queen?"

The woman squirmed into her chair and gripped her scepter.

"You murdered your own mother so you could get power. Our great queen Yui believed in giving power to the people, she was about to announce her proclamation in abdicating anyone else in line for rule but she was assassinated.

Her eyes darkened at the revelation, as she raised her hand at the man.

"You killed your mother for a petty ambition. You murdered our queen in order to obtain power. Since you achieved this profound belief you have become a murderous snake. A queen is supposed to have honor and decency. This is the first time in our country's history when someone of your status has tarnished the blood of an angel. You are a disgrace to this kingdom. I hope our God Seiryuu punishes you for this treasonous behavior."

"Silence!"

The guards rushed over and surrounded the man, each of them unsheathing their swords. The baron placed his hand inside of his armor and retrieved an envelope.
