The King
The king of Romania had just been crowned and he was doing his first tour of his country.
The king was a greedy man who only loved two things in his life :
- His crown
- How much tax can be collected
When the king came to Wallachia, Emmasina had come to the parade in the center of the village to see the new king.
The king had noticed a golden haired beauty with red eyes in the crowd of people and he was immediately enthralled into a trance.
He had came out of the carriage and walked straight to Emmasina and proclaimed to all of the villagers that Emmasina was to be his new queen.
Emmasina was not happy to leave her people but she did not want to disappoint her new King. She wanted to reason with him and convince that he should pick someone with more experience as a nable lady.
The king did not believe in equals, he was king and he thought he was in all control of everyone in the kingdom.
Emmasina had left back to her village but this only angered the king.
