THE LIFE OF A KING: FINDING A HEIR TO THE THRONE.
KING LEONADIS'S POV.
One of my advisors, a shrewd old man named Nicholas, spoke up. "My king, we must be strong, for our enemies are like the stars in the sky, uncountable. From the east to the west to the north we have tons of enemies, willing to strike at any point. Our warriors are the best in all the land, but we need a strong leader to guide them. My king you have served us well in your days, but now you are growing frail and old, going out for wars will only make you health worse. The people are in need of a new king, an heir to the great throne of Sparta. Who among us has the strength and wisdom to lead our people to victory?"
A tense silence fell over the room as all the advisors looked at each other, their faces drawn and grave
I was lost in thoughts. My warriors just came back from war, the King of Athens waged war against us, we suffered some casualties but emerged victorious.
It's been few weeks after the war and I am healing from the severe injuries I suffered during the war.
My subjects demand that I crown someone young , bold,brave, wise and courageous to lead them, both in wars and as their king.
I had no heir at the moment, my wife, the Queen of Sparta, Aspasia was pregnant and her due date was in two days.
A young man spoke up. "My king, I know that I am young and I know little or nothing about running a city-state as great as Sparta. But I have been trained in the art of war and I have studied the great heroes of our last, and I believe I have what it takes to lead our people to glory. I come from a well known family, and I am a man of my words. I believe under my reign I will be able to serve this great city-state and conquer all our enemies. I ask for your consideration my king".
I sat back on my throne, my eyes fixed on the young man. I saw right through his fake act and nice words. He does not care about the kingdom , it's well being or the people. He is one of the many people who want to be king so they can loot all the money. He does not care about war, I am very sure he will flee in the face of war, leaving his people alone when they need him the most. Man of his words? He has been brought before me twice each time for raping a young lady. He managed to escape. I can not make such a man my heir, that would be irresponsible.
"I will consider your words young one" I said, rising I my feet I left the throne room, heading to my private chambers to meet my queen.
As I walked into My queen's chambers, she saw and bowed. "Greetings my King, welcome" she said, wearing a warm smile.
"Aspasia, how are you feeling my queen?" I asked, gently placing my hands on her shoulders.
"I am fine my king, but what about you? You seem so worried" she said, her eyebrows furrowed in concern.
"It's nothing my queen" I said, placing a kiss on her forehead.
"My love, I know that you are concerned about our future and the future of this great kingdom. But I must ask, have you considered the future of our child? He will be born soon and he will one day inherit the throne. What will be his fate? And how will you prepare him for the great task ahead? How will you prepare him for the role of king?" Aspasia said, worry in her eyes.
I paused for a moment, my expression thoughtful. "I am thinking of our child my dear. I will teach him to be strong and just, as any good king should be. More than that, I will teach him to be compassionate and wise. He should not only learn to be a good warrior but also a good man. For without a good heart, he can not truly head our people."
The queen nodded in agreement. "It is true my king. But what of our enemies? What of those would seek to destroy us? How will you protect our kingdoms from those who would harm us?" She asked, she was scared.
"I will protect our people and our child. I will not allow our enemies hurt a single hair on our child. I swear upon my honor as a king and as a man." I said, my jaw tightly clenched as I thought of my son and how far I would go to protect him.
"Thank you my king. I was worried but now you have put my mind at ease. I am sure our son will grow up to become a great king under your training and supervision. I pray the gods bless with him with knowledge, wisdom and understanding to help him in ruling this great kingdom, and take it to greater heights. May his reign be peaceful and his days on earth be long." The queen blessed our unborn child.
"Thank you my queen, may the gods accept our prayers and grant us a son, one worthy of being the heir to my throne. The messiah of his people, who would wage war against enemies and always emerge victorious. " I said and pulled the queen into a warm embrace.
But I could not help but feel something was about to go wrong. What if we do end up having a enable child? I can not crown a female child as king. It is against the laws of this great kingdom and doing so will be deadly, for sooner or later the secret might be out and I can only imagine the chaos it would cause.
