Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. To one who has pledged loyalty to my liege, Who shall rule over and lead his people, Allow me to speak freely. Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. I bring terrible news to my liege. Raiders have swept through the villages, The people cry for blood. Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. Lift your gaze from your feast, my liege. Our fields are blackened and choked with ash, While you dine, the people are starving. Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. Put down your wine, my liege. The women and children are dying, Poisons have seeped into the waters. Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. Command your soldiers, my liege. Distress rings across the kingdom, What is to be done now? Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. Look to your court, my liege. The princess has vanished, And her search has been in vain. Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. Arise from your untroubled lair, my liege. Sparks of rebellion have been ignited, I fear the princess is behind it. Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. Take hold of your sceptre, my liege. The empire has declared war, Lead your armies, then, into battle. Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. Do not wait in silence, my liege. Intruders have breached the castle, Flee to safety to save your life. Sire, sire, hear me, my lord. I fear it is the end, my liege. The kingdom has crumbled, Laid waste by those who once built it.
