Description “When the evil king was dethroned, all was well.
When we stormed the castle gates and murdered him, we did a good deed.
Or… So we thought. And so did you, no?
Because you see… When we killed him… We did something terrible.
He was a monster, yes. But he kept us in check. Now that we killed him, the world is in chaos.
But how would we know? How was I supposed to know?! When I bound him with the chains… I thought I was doing a good thing.
Cursed him for eternity. His soul is embedded in the Stone Throne.
The king is dead, I shouted. Oh, what a fool I was… This… World is because of me. All I wanted was to be…
A hero.
