I can't believe I panicked so over the threat of an armed invasion. An army of twelve, I couldn't even make a
chess set out of so few. I burned my tower. I'll have to rebuild, I suppose. Wait didn't that arrogant little
alarmist say her kingdom was expanding and had a new tower? Hm, I'll check it out on mirror, if it's more than
a silo, it might make a good home for me. Queen Morgana of Molossia? It has a nice ring to it, and after all
the kingdom's heir apparent did attack me, so it's all just self defense, isn't it? Hm?
Smiling I turned to go back to the old farmhouse, but the laughter of Maedel and Sara gave me pause. They had
my wine, but I didn't want them to know I overheard them. In the morning, I would announce my true plan to
retaliate against the princess' kingdom and conquer Molossia. Under my reign it would keep expanding. After all
why should I wait for princes to come to me, when I can have my kingdom expand and devour theirs? In any case,
they must think I knew all along that there were only 12 men in the Molossian army. Still they shouldn't go
unpunished for stealing my wine. Ah, there's the perfect idea. I'll give the naughty girls the hangover from
hell curse, and then in the morning, when they're all headachey I will cure their headaches, and they will be
grateful to me. Then we invade Molossia.
Reciting the ancient curse softly, I direct it toward the barn with my wand. Slip the wand back up my sleeve,
and head back to the farmhouse. I want a clear head while I plan my attack on Molossia. Need to minimize
damage to the structures, get a quick surrender, and no surprises - only 12 men. Wine will have to wait until
tomorrow, when I celebrate in my new tower.
