I am the king. I rule this kingdom alongside my wife, the queen. It is my divine right to be the king because my father was the king before me.
Yes, I was wondering where my child was. Who are you and what is your work here? I'm just a townsperson here at the temple helping to clean the artifacts. The princess has been helping me. She's very talented. That's good to hear, so tell me how is everything in town? King, if I may be frank, people seem a little disgruntled. They complain there is not enough food. How is that so? The rains and the harvest were bountiful why is there no food? Yes, the harvest was bountiful, but Sire, you required a 50 percent tax on all crops. It did not leave enough food for this citizens of this village. Yes, I concur that the tax is high but we needed to fortify our walls, make waterways and pave roads Yes, Sire, but also you purchased all these artifacts from the Orient. They truly are gorgeous, but I know they cost a fortune in gold. Yes, they are beautiful but these are bought from my personal treasure. I see, Your Highness. I did not wish to suggest you were immoral. But how can we provide more food for the people? We should look at increasing our harvest so that we can feed more mouths Indeed, Sire! I was just telling the Princess I thought that could solve all of our problems!
