The Palace Beast

The secret is out. Lord Ramsey has blown the whistle and has alerted everyone of the identity of their King just before he was thrown into the dungeon by the wendigo. He screamed like a mad man as he was being dragged to the dungeon letting people who cares to listen that Queen Bonnieis a vampire.

The Nobles of Maxis have gathered demanding an audience with the King to state if the rumor is true or a mere rumor but the wendigo on John order has denied them access into the main castle.

The wendigo was blocking the entrance of the main castle with its arms folded. One of the nobles approached and politely said to the wendigo, "Please do let us in."

The wendigo bends and brought its terrifying face close to the man and yelled. "Go away!" Its words were accompanied by wind blowing up the noble's robe and exposing his inner-wear. ...Inside Queen Bonnie's Chamber...

"I can't believe Ramsey has been hiding the vampire that killed My brother from me all this while." Queen Bonnie is filled with many worries. She just found out that Gallo has been in her dungeon without Lord Ramsey saying a word of it. She paces up and down her chamber and then stopped for a while. She turned to face John, "Perhaps it's Gallo who revealed my identity to Ramsey."

"We shouldn't be worried about Gallo or Lord Ramsey. Your people are out there and you need to speak to them."

"About what exactly?"

"Tell them the Bonnie and let them know you mean no harm to them."

"I don't think that's a good idea."

"Trust me, it's better than doing nothing."

"You haven't told me how you get the wendigo at our side. How exactly did you get the wendigo to follow you?"

"I used an ancient spell to make the wendigo my slave."

When John was enchanting the ancient words, he wasn't quite familiar with the words but he finds himself doing it. The power of 'The All' in him is revealing mysteries to him and what he didn't know will just become plain to him. "Take me to the dungeon, I have a plan."

...At the dungeon...

The guards assigned to guard the dungeon where Gallo is quickly stood to their feet on seeing John approach with the King. The guards slightly lowered their heads and crossed their right hand over their chest. "Greetings King!" This is usually how they greet a noble or King and King while they see them approach. The crossing of the right hand on the chest is the customary way for guards or knights to greet their Lords or Lady.

"Open the dungeon and bring out the prisoner."

"Are you sure of what you are about to do? He's an original vampire and can easily overpower you."

"That's right but he can't overpower you. That's why you are here as one with the abilities of a god."

"Just be careful and always stay..."

John's words were pushed back to his throat by the dangling of the chains that held Gallo bond. The guards after they hand dragged Gallo out knocked him down to his feet. Gallo couldn't fight back since vervain is running through his veins. He lifted his head up and saw Queen Bonnie standing before him. "I heard you have been made the King," he mutters below his breath. He's looking feverish and could barely speak.

Bonnie was able to pick his words with her hearing ability. She stared down at him. "Do you have a problem with that?"

"Not at all but if you don't tell me where you have pinned Ambrogio, I will tear Maxis to shred," he muttered again below his breath.

"What's stopping you?"

"My love, what are your plans with him?" John asked. His curiosity is eating him up and he can't keep quiet anymore. He wishes to see the outcome of Queen Bonnie's plans and to make sure it doesn't fail. "We are taking him out to meet the good Nobles of Maxis."

Queen Bonnie ordered the guards to drag Gallo out to the courtyard and inform the nobles to wait for her there.

The guards followed her instructions and delivered her message to the nobles to assemble at the courtyard. At first, the nobles of Maxis hesitated. They murmured amongst themselves saying, 'Why will the King ask us to assemble in the courtyard? Why not her throne hall?'

When they got to the courtyard, they saw Gallo brought to his knees at the center of the courtyard beside the almond tree.

"What is going on here?" they asked staring at one another.

Not quite long Gallo got their attention on him again when he fangs out. Fear gripped them but just as they were about to draw away from the courtyard, they heard a voice that spoke to them from behind. "He will do you no harm!" They turned to see who it was. They saw John approaching with the wendigo. He then makes his way to the center of the courtyard and stood beside Gallo. "The King will be with you shortly," he announced.

"What's keeping her and why is she keeping a wendigo as a pet?" asked one of the nobles. He was dressed in a blue robe with golden chains around his neck. He was terrified at the presence of the wendigo. "You have nothing to fear about the wendigo. He's friendly as far as you didn't attempt something stupid."

Just as they want to throw a fresh volume of questions again, Queen Bonniemakes her way into the courtyard. "I am sorry good Nobles of Maxis for keeping you all waiting." She proceeded to the center of the courtyard and stood beside John and the wendigo. "I am here now and will address the rumor you all have heard!"

"Is the rumor true or not King?" asked the noble with a golden chain around his neck.

Queen Bonnie took a few steps closer to the nobles and then opens up to speak. "That will depend on how you want me to respond!" She then turned and points at Gallo and continued, "But right here is someone who will help to explain everything you all wish to know."
