15
I am not a monster. I'm just a prince, not of Gogmen city, but of Teca. I feel bitter-sweet. I have succeeded in my mission of conquering all of Teca, but at what cost? I see the suffering of people. I must not let my feelings interject with my plans.
I walk into the warm water. Perhaps this will take my mind of these things.
"You are not a monster." The Soothsayer said.
"I try not to be." I say.
"You are torturing innocent people."
"They must learn to obey their king. This wall will secure my victory and then I will finally be placed upon my throne."
"You do not have to do this."
"I have too."
"I feel as if this isn't all about securing your rule."
I look at her. I sigh. She's right. I also crave vengeance. The King Teca ruined me. I shown mercy and he ran. To be fair, I expected him to flee.
"I want revenge. The Teca's will suffer."
"Haven't they suffered enough?"
"Not until my father says so."
A wolf came in. He knelt before me.
"Any word?"
"Your father is most pleased, he is coming." The wolf said.
I smile. Soon all my hard work will finally pay off.
