It’s not often we let members of the general public seek an audience with the royal family, however, you have made a mockery of yourself and of this entire meeting. You have wasted your only opportunity to speak within the palace walls, and I will ensure you are never allowed within the castle walls again. Consider yourself lucky that there is no queen to order your execution. This is absurd. Considering the late king’s… choices regarding child rearing, it may appear your claim to the throne is feasible from an outsiders perspective, but anyone well read on his history would know your claim is absurd and frankly a slight against his name. You claim he conceived you with one of his many lovers, and you were left to be raised alone by said lover? Ridiculous. The late king was a loyal man, and only had one lover. His wife. He did not engage in any affairs, and furthermore, had he engaged in one, he would have treated the child born out of wedlock like the rest of them. Two of his children were adopted, after all, and they have right to the throne when their times come. You, however, do not. The king made time for all his children, and while he did not make the best decisions regarding their conception, he treated each of them with the upmost care. He loved his children more than I’ve seen any other love their own. Every part of your story is inconsistent, and you have no claim to the throne. You have wasted your time, you have wasted my time, and you have- I’ll get back to you in a second, Miss. What’s happening, this is too important to be- a letter from the soothsayer? My my, Miss, it appears you may have some credibility. We have only ever received letters from the soothsayer regarding the deaths of queens. If one has arrived now, while there is no queen ruling, it may indicate the throne is your next. Let’s have a look, hmm? “The faker” hmm “shall receive a death met only by queens.” Well this is certainly interesting. It appears the soothsayer has foretold your arrival, and confirmed your status as a liar, though that was obvious, hmm? Begone. Leave the palace and never return.
Actually Miss, before you leave, I have some advice. Given you are not related to the ruling family, there’s a chance you may listen to it. Not that I really care, I feel I’ve made it abundantly clear my opinion of you. Either way, this information may be beneficial to your survival. Or maybe it won’t. Only one prophecy has been wrong so far, I’d say you don’t have luck on your side. But, you might be able to make that two incorrect prophecies. Given your prophecy, it is abundantly clear to me how you will die. If I were you, I’d keep an eye out for the royal elephant. Now leave.
