«My King, my King, the walls have been breached and we are under attack!» A captain shouted as he knocked hard on the door to the king and queens bedroom, in a great hurry to try and wake them up from a deep sleep. Thought as soon Aldacar the king of Athens heard the news, he quickly woke and stood up, leaving his queen Daphne afraid in bed as she rapped her sheets around her as her husband opened the door. And with a look of great curiosity and frustration, the King looked at the messenger that now stood outside his door. «What are you talking about captain, how can our walls been breached?» He asked quickly, wanting an answer such that he could act as fast as possible. «None noticed, my King. The walls opened from the inside, all guards were killed during the night and none could see them come. Now the rebellion army is streaming into the city, like a river of water that never seems stop coming. The city defenses is falling into enemies hand, what shall we do?»
«Fight, give them hell! Go, prepare my men. We will not let this city fall!» The King shouted back in return, and the captain stood proud as he nodded and left to prepare for the last stand against the enemy. Quickly the King turned to his wife, as he at the same time began to dress himself, in the armor he had ready beside him. «Now you must do as I say, if the city falls into enemy hands I will not be able to protect you from them. Then you must run, you understand. We both know what they do to those that can not escape, specially a queen.» He said with a firm tone as he looked on her, knowing that she understood, cause clever and smart she was, able to take care of herself. And with a look back at him, she answered with just a kiss without no words and as it was done, Aldacar the king turned to walk out the closed door.
But now as he opened it, he met the biggest shock of his life. As when he opened the door, he was met by Adrian, the adviser of the king. Thought as quickly as he saw him, he knew there was something wrong and without a moment of hesitation, Adrian stabbed the king on his own bedroom, in the stomach, causing him to fall bleeding on the ground. Quickly Daphne ran to her husband who bleed, but with great strength she was grabbed by Adrian and the guards that had followed him and she was raped, right before the eyes of Alcander. Thought the anger that rose in him as he saw what happened, he gathered strength and with the will of stopping what happened, he killed the two guards and made Adrian ran in fear.
Now with Adrian on the run, Alcander remained with his wife Daphne as he still bleed by the stab he just had received. Thought at her side, he was taken care of. But as she looked at him, she spoke to him. «No, you must leave, not I. You can live to fight another day, if you survive then Athen will also.» She said with tears in the eyes, wanting her husband to go into exile such that the kingdom could one day be his again. Thought as she said those words, Alcander looked upon his wife in fear of what she asked him to do and of what would happen and in response he answered with blood in his mouth. «What?..no...» He said and caught up blood, but then Daphne answered and she demanded. «You can not force me, I have made my decision. I will stay, make them believe that you died of blood loose, that way you will be free from then following you. I need you to do this, for me. « She said and kissed him, then with the words spoken, she went out and sent help and together with a few servants, Aldacar managed to escape while Daphne remained with Adrian who after the leaving of the King, took control, over Athens.
