His heart beated, as he watched an old man dressed in rags, be surrounded by several cuthroats in the back alley. Winston, in a simple tunic and pants was watching as the poor old fool was to be the next victim of another attack but I ca the local gang. It was a common place in the part of town he lived. Smugglers, cut throats and whatever the lowest scum of the kingdom. Quite frankly, he felt sorry for the bloke. Winston Got up and picked up a sword he had stolen from an asian traveler, it was a thin blade but he stole because of the elegant look, and how easily he wielded. He smiled at the attacking muggers, unsheated his blade, and approached the group.
In an instant, all the muggers were killed. The old man was on his knees thanking Winston graciously.
"Please sir how can I ever repay you."
"Your just lucky I felt the urge of a massacre, an suitible substitute, seeing as I have know women to ravage or riches to expound." He responded "Besides I don't you can repay me. Even if you have all the gold in the world"
"Just tell me your wish and I can see what I can do."
"Alright make me royalty! Make me king of this entire country." The commoner responded half joking at the same time, in a silent way Half Serious. The old man smiled back at him.
"You may have the makings of a king, with your lust for conquering. I'll see what I can do for you commoner." he finished the last words, which sounded prophetic to anyone who was more observant then Winston.
Days later guards from the palace arrived and took Winston to the caste, holding a blade to his throat when he refused. When he arrived at the throne room . To his surprise the old man he saved the other day was there! As well as a younger elegant looking lady, far more extravagant and beautiful then the commoner himself. Before he could speak the king with the voice of a god voiced his own words
"Since you have saved my life, I will grant you half of your wish. You are to be part of royalty on this day, a noblemen and a warrior. From there, depending on how you fair in battle, I'll grant you my title of King, and retire from my position.." The king said with smile " I've explained to my daughter, if you are eligible to be in the throne you must also marry one of my daughters to do so. Now do you accept?"
The shock was almost unbearable for Winston, but with the eyes of a wolf he smiled.
"Old man you won't regret this, I'll have the throne before you know it. I'll be king of this country!." . The king smiled then, his mysterious smile. He had certainly picked the right man to succeed him. He'll have to take down the other noblemen married to his other daughters first.
"Well then daughter of mine, present him that gift and welcome him, after all he's not commoner not by are books by a noblemen of pure blood." The father winked deviously at Winston. Winston smiled knowing the kind of forgery the kind would have to do.
"Well come now why did you greet your new husband..." Winston smiled.
