Capítulo 130: 128: Shadows of the past - part 1

"You're going to step down as the king? And then what? Give the kingdom over to a fool to rule?" The queen asked with barely present patience in her voice. Out of all the ridiculous things she had heard, this had to take the cake. The kingdom was barely afloat as it was, a takeover would ruin the economy.

And the king knew it as well. So the queen could not understand the reasoning behind this decision. Did the kingdom want to end itself by planning an upheaval right now? Even when the node was so close to being upset?

"I know what you mean. The time for the war is coming closer each day and we cannot fault the node for showing fear. The oracle had been born as well so there is no avoiding it. But I can't unhear the cries of my people as well. They call for me to take action" the king replied back with a pained voice.
