Elena was dragged back by the demons to the assembly of Felix and his compadres on the gravel of the fallen palace with demons rounding people up people in the kingdom so they could all witness the crowning of their new"king". Ha! Ha! Felix cackled. "The river will always return to it's bank wether it likes it or not." 'Oh you traitor,fool you...'. 'Silence' Felix shouted cutting Elena's statement off. 'How dare you address your king and future husband in such an uncultured manner. 'No, I shall never call you my king or husband If I were given all the diamonds in the world' Elena said, "Then you shall be killed"Felix said in anger. "Please,my king have mercy on her, make her a slave instead" said one of the knight,immediately felix threw a dagger at the knight's eye and stated if you want to think for me you gotta look like me, from now on you tell any ideas you wanna give me to prudence my new wife and assistant. Now people here's my first decree that all of you commoners pay me 3/4 of your day earning and farm produce as taxes. 'Crazy! Crazy! I tell you, how do you expect us to survive? One woman protested. Felix whispered to one of his demons, tear her flesh apart and bring me her soul to feed to my tree of eternal demons. The demon flew straight to the woman who had not stopped blabbing and indeed did tear her apart, ripping her pale body apart from limb to limb and pulling out her heart and brain and took it before everyone to the demon tree and raised I before it and chanted "ner ghai marki mahki" and immediately the tree opened up and the demon gave the heart and brain to it. "Do you see what happens when you tussle with the king" my demons are everywhere so keep whatever protests you have in your mind, anyone caught protesting shall have his blood shed on this ground and shall be another sacrifice for the demons also every month a child shall be offered to the tree, nobody is safe, the knights and wizard laughed but the people were scared and they were in tears, all they needed now was a hero.
