Weapon Story
- Level 1
At the end of a long battle, the rebel leader finally pierced the tyrannical king’s heart with his spear. As he drew his last breath, the army of the revolution poured into the castle. Now the land would be free of corruption, and peace would return. The victorious rebel smiled at the thought, but his smile was short-lived. - Level 2
The last battle perplexed him. The king offered no resistance - it almost seemed as if he gave his life willingly. But would a corrupt king do that? While he pondered over this, his allied called for him to come to the dead king’s chamber. - Level 3
There he found the princess, bound and gagged. His allies quickly explained that they had found her like this. Feeling rather bemused, he removed the her gag and heard the truth: she had been taken hostage by a spy from a nearby land, and used as a leverage to force her father to sabotage his own kingdom. "He was no tyrant!" she cried. - Level 4
Moving as if to free her from her bonds, the rebel drew his knife and then slit the princess’s throat. Whether or not her father had been a tyrant did not matter now. All that mattered was that the angry masses had risen up to remove a corrupt king. The truth was buried with the princess’s body and her murderer was crowned that day.
