The Ruthless Ruler
The weeping mother cry in the middle of the night because there was a blood shed on that night with the village that makes their night sleepless and become a nightmare.
The King have ordered the soldiers of the Kingdom to kill all the men in who lived in that village because he is afraid that they might make rebellion to the Ruler. When there was a young lady who came into the village, she heard the cry of the women who is yelling for justice, her name is Becka a Doctor who came for a medical mission on that place. Her heart was crying inside when she find out what had happened.
One morning, she passed on the King's palace, she stop for awhile. She heard a child chuckles, there was a young boy playing in the ground of the palace. Becka climb up on the gate and grab the young boy and she escape immediately.
The wife of the King called her son, but there's no one who answered. She tells the King that their son was lost, and the King ordered the soldiers of the Kingdom to look for her son, but they didn't find it anywhere.
On that night, somebody throw a piece of stone on the Kings Window, and there is a piece of paper that has a short message.
"See you at the roof"
The King have growled in anger because he wasn't able to protect his son, even if he is the King. His wife cried and lost his appetite because of what had happened.
On the next day, the King woke up early, and he was waiting new update about his son, when they heard the cry of a young boy. The King ordered the whole Kingdom to get out and find out where did it came from.
One of the soldier's came to the King and tell Him that they saw the King's son, the young boy was hang on the highest tower of the Kingdom and tied up with a rope. There they heard the lady's voice from the top of the tower that says'
"Your Kingdom or your own son".
The lady have given the choice to the King, that she will not let the boy fall down from the tower if he will step down as a King of the Kingdom. The King was so angry, and said, that he will kill the lady but the lady have loosen a bit the rope, and the baby shout and called his father. The boy was being tied up in his foot, the more that the rope was detach, the more chances that will fall down.
The wife of the King feel pity for his son, because its her only child, and they have waited for that baby for almost 12 years.
The young lady makes the king suffer emotionally so that he can relate with the women who shed tears for their husband's, father, brother and young boys that the people that the king have killed.
There's only 30 minutes left before the King will decide, and all the people on that village have come there to witnessed what will happened. They also bring sparrows, and swords, firing bows, that surrounds the troops of the King.
There was a drums that counts while counting, and the rope on the boy's foot was slowly cut with a knife by the lady. The King's wife kneel down before the King, while weeping in tears. She begged with the King to step down on the throne. Then the king torn his clothes and take off his crown and it falls on the ground. The King falls down on his knees and he begged to the people to let his son free and saved him from falling the highest tower of the place.
When the lady saw the King was begging, she saved the baby who crying. And one of the soldier came to the lady and get the Kings son.
They run so fast through his parents who was weeping on the ground fainting, and they hugged each other and all the soldiers have put down their armors and stay back from the King's palace.
On that day, the people of the village and the rest of the Kingdom have experienced freedom and they celebrate the most memorable day in their life. One of the respected elder of the Kingdom was the one who lead the people. The lady was glad when she successfully conquer the Kings injustices on that place.
There was a banquet night that has been held n the palace and the lady warrior was invited but she never appeared.
While the King have leave on that place and live as a normal people in a small island where he and his family have lived a simple life and they are not allowed to come over on he Kingdom for the rest of their life.
The boy grows in body and also in knowledge with the help of his mother who taught him on how he should lived in a right way and he was trained to use his arrow and became a good hunter in that island. The young man never knew why he is not allowed to come over the kingdom, his parents didn't tell him the whole story, they just want him to live free from anger and hatred to his father.
The King have become old and was suffering an illness that makes him suffer night and day, he still lived even he has an ailments. He was thinking that he is being cursed by the creator because of what he has done to the people.
On one night, the King called his son, he is not feeling better on that time, then his son came and hug his father, the King ask forgiveness to his son and his tears was falling and he died on his son's arms. They mourn for the King and buried him on the island on the highest part of the place. And they put a mark on the King's grave.
"Our King".
The King died but the son remain clueless, but he was curious about it, he lived with his mother and follow the teachings of his parents.
This ends here?
Or to be continued?
Author's Notes:
"What you sow, is what you reap". If we give love, love will give us back to, but if we plant wickedness we reap vengeance, hatred, and anger.
Whatever task, position, or role that you played in this country, and community, play it well, with love, grace and mercy towards the people.
Never lack sympathy and love in serving, never be like the "ruthless ruler".
Until here.
