“Neither do we, for that matter.” Raymond interrupted.
The king narrowed his eyes at him and continued, “Like I said, the Gold Kingdom does not want him. It is odd for them to give up their heirs that easily. They basically just dumped him on us. The way the King and Queen speak of him, he might as well have joined the Diamond Order.” My father sighs and looked at my brother, who started to speak.
“We were thinking about poisoning the food, to get rid of the threat of being spied on by the Gold Kingdom.” Raymond looked at me with hopeful eyes.
“You let me spare him in the arena, and now you want to kill him? Has all this time we spent nurturing him back to health been for nothing?” I asked.
The King sighed, “We didn’t let you spare him,…show more content… Jax scrapes his teeth together and nods briefly.
“Flashy won’t win battles.” He growls.
I sigh and look at him. He doesn’t dare meet my eyes.
“You should have prevented this,” he snarls, “If you just cared about me-”
I want to fight back, but I don 't. Jax and I were never supposed to meet, let alone be friends.
“I do care about you, Jax.” I turn to him and narrow my eyes. “And I’ll prove it to you.”
“Too late, Silver Princess.” He grabs his sword and trudges into another room. The door shuts behind him, and I can’t hear anything.
I close my eyes and sigh. Jax is going to die, and it’s my fault.
My breathing hitches, and I swallow down whatever was in my throat. A tear breaks through my eye before I can stop it. I wipe it away and continue on.
Nobody must see this side of me.
Raymond and my father are waiting for me at the entrance of our balcony. I stand straight up and walk over to them. Raymond is holding my crown and a coat in his paws.
I gratefully take them. I slip on my coat and put on my crown.
Raymond nods at me and walks up the stairs. I follow close behind him.
My muscles still ache, but I push through.
The balcony was boring. My father had a leopard skin throne with one large gem above it. It was his greatest kill.
His own father.
My father’s crown had every gem of his dead victims. My brother has seven gems on his crown and I only have three.
I sit down on my leather throne and look down into the arena. Bolt is standing on one
the King as well. Henry Norris, for example, had been close friends with the King years before Anne was even in the picture; however, close or not, Henry spoke nothing when Norris was arrested on suspicion of adultery with the Queen. He too spoke nothing when the Queen was further accused of adultery with four other men, Francis Weston, Mark Smeaton, William Brereton, and George Boleyn, Anne’s own brother. Anne was also accused of treason which meant imagining or plotting the death of the King as
Introduction
Son of a king, Siddhartha lived a privileged and opulent life, sheltered from the sorrows of the world. However he eventually grew tired of the indulgences of his royal life, and searched outside the palace walls in search of more. Upon leaving, he encountered an old man, a sick man, a deceased man and an ascetic. These encounters made Siddhartha begin to question the reason behind “human frailty” (PBS) though he wanted to go in search of these newfound questions, he knew he had a social
threads seem to shine brighter than her once gold threads.
“My Queen, the...the Royal advisor and his men have blown the east and west barricades of the Temple…them…” I hear a nervous young warrior stutter behind me and my blood rushes.
Where’s my king? The mention of the royal advisor made my blood boil and my once gentle hands roll up into a fist. The royal advisor is the reason why my children are starving, why my people are dying, why my Vita is full of sorrow. I remember hearing him tell me
Since his tomb’s discovery, King Tutankhamun’s death has been debated by many
scholars and anyone who is interested. The ideas proposed by these scholars are constantly being challenged by other evidence suggesting otherwise. The young King’s early death has been a very debatable topic, but evidence clearly points to the theory that his death was caused by an accident that broke his femur which got infected and nobody knew how to treat it.
The discovery of the young King Tutankhamun’s tomb provided
The death of King Hamlet effected many individuals lives to the point where great changes were made. Especially in regards to his son, Hamlet, who took the death – murder- of his father personally in both mental and emotional ways. By doing so, Hamlet portrays and experiences the death and loss of his father by acting out in manners in which magnify his isolation and alienated actions. These would include excluding and distancing himself, turning on those closest, and taking on measures one would
King Arthur decisions and death demonstrate supernatural in order to show culture of the middle ages. People believe that King Arthur did not die and that he will return. When King Arthur went with the ladies Sir Bedivere said that King Arthur deserted him.
In King Arthur’s dream he was visited by Sir Gawain and some beautiful noblewomen (malory 195). Sir Gawain and the women pleaded Arthur not to go to battle with Sir Modred tomorrow, if he does then he and his noble followers will die(malory 195)
after his arrival. Believing his brother, Prince Gabriel would inherit the throne, he agreed to leave his father’s court and never return.
Despite the contrary, his life completely changed, causing him to reconsider the titled his name now holds.
King Robert was currently unaware of the stunning beauty; dress in silk and rose-color lace gown, which forms to her small frame, moving gracefully across the marble floor of the study. She wraps her petite arms around his trim waist, sliding her hand underneath
Oliver Queen woke the next day with a pounding headache and an annoying stab of pain in his left arm – right where he struck the first gangster he encountered the night before. He should have known that bare knuckle fights tend to result in more negative outcomes, but the adrenaline must have momentarily diverted his attention from the pain come the fight’s aftermath. However, it was now completely bruised and swollen, and the accompanying headaches were not doing him any favors.
He hopped out of
In Thebes, a plague is infecting the people. They ask King Oedipus for help, since he saved them from the Sphynx. He sent Creon to Oracle of Delphi to get help from Apollo. Creon comes back and says Thebes must find and punish former King Liaus’ murderer. So, Oedipus starts seeking information of the murder. Oedipus welcomes Tiresias, but Tiresias regrets coming. Finally, Tiresias tells Oedipus that he “is the wound”- King Liaus’ murderer. Oedipus responds by accusing Tiresias and Creon of treason
surround the death of the Egyptian king Tutankhamun. The main theory that I will focus on is that his death was because of assassination. There are many books and articles based on the research of King Tutankhamun’s assassination. I reviewed many scholarly sources that describe the life of King Tutankhamun as well as the discovery of his tomb.
King Tutankhamun ruled over the land of Egypt as pharaoh. He is known as the boy-king, and for the lavish grave goods that were discovered in his tomb. King Tutankhamun
