The Kings Days are Numbered

Nova All around the room, I noticed the humans were entirely still; no muscle moved. The only thing that permeated the air was the palpable feeling of fear. It was as if they knew that they were utterly powerless against me. I felt a surge of confidence and control, knowing that I had complete authority over the situation. No one in that room could have even hoped to stop me, and I could make any decision I pleased without any fear of opposition. With a determined focus, I surge forward towards the King, my feet pounding against the ground in a blur of motion. His expression is one of shock and surprise, as if he can't quite believe how quickly I've managed to reach him. I can see the gears turning in his mind, as he tries to make sense of the situation. Despite the urgency and intensity of the moment, I remain calm and collected, ready to kill the King at any possible moment if I had to. As I gazed into the piercing, unyielding eyes of the King, I could feel the weight of the moment bearing down on me. The tension in the room was palpable, with the hushed whispers and murmurs of the gathered crowd fading into the background as my attention remained fixed on the King's unmoving form. The only sounds that filled the air were the heavy, rhythm of the humans breathing and the rapid thud of their hearts beating in their chest. I knew that the eyes of everyone in the room were on me, waiting with bated breath to see what I would do next.

Starting with your youngest and work my way up, then you queen then lastly you. The King, seating before me, appeared visibly shaken. Sensing his nervousness, I gracefully pulled away from him and quickly flew back to the spot I had been at just moments before. The humans who were gathered around us all looked on in shock, their faces frozen in fear as they watched my every move. Despite their fear, I remained calm and collected, keeping a watchful eye on my surroundings. As I stepped out of the grand throne room, I couldn't help but chuckle to myself. The sight of humans cowering in fear and uncertainty before a monster always amused me. The heavy doors closed behind me, muffling the sound of my footsteps as I made my way down the long, dimly lit hallway. The flickering torches on the walls cast eerie shadows, making the space feel even more ominous. I knew that once I left the castle, I would be followed. It was just a matter of time before they sent their guards after me. But I wasn't worried; I had lived in the woods for centuries and knew every nook and cranny like the back of my hand. I would be safe there, away from the prying eyes of the kingdom's rulers and their minions. As I walked, I couldn't help but wonder what the humans would do if they knew what lurked in these woods. They would be terrified, no doubt. But for now, I savored the feeling of walking amongst the humans for the very first time..
