the whipping station is just a large wooden platform that serves to embarrass the peasant villagers that sin, they also hang adulterers and homosexuals.

I live in a very old village on the bad side of the country. The villagers are nice where I live but we get a bad reputation. The forest behind my village is known to have magical creatures in it. I know the villagers are not allowed in the forest but we want to explore and find something new.
Hello sir, do you think we will ever take down this horrid whipping station? No way. It's the only way we can keep some of these idiots in line. The king has ordered it and I can't disobey his orders or you know what happens... So there are no rumors going around that people are asking for it to be taken down? Of course there are rumors, but you know the king. He doesn't care.  Are you creating some of these rumors? Why would I do that? Because you believe this is morally wrong, ....having this whipping station here. Ok, maybe just a little but I can't upset the king or...off with my head.  I knew some officials still had morals. please don't tell anyone Oh...oh my.. What's wrong???
