A highly fortified tower, one of the tallest in the land, about 50 square feet wide and 300 meters in height. It is constructed with the finest Ethery Stone, which is grey with hints of black tar. Some cracks appear on the west side of the Tower after years of wear and tear.

I was the daughter of a high ranking nobleman overseas. To make a trade alliance with the King, my parents offered me in marriage. It wasn't my idea, but it has turned out very well. I've produced two living sons as heirs, and the king treats me kindly. I spend my time doing embroidery and talking with my ladies in waiting.
Simply seeing that the castle is safe from harm is enough to satisfy me. Yes, Your Majesty. Are you ready to leave for the meeting hall? Oh if I must, I was enjoying the time working on my embroidery. It is indeed imperative that we attend my Queen. The diplomats from France will be arriving soon. I see I did not think they would arrive so soon, let us go. As you wish my Queen. May I talk with you about the king on the way? Certainly, my life has turned out well since coming here. The king is suspicious. I think he knows..or thinks he knows...about our private redevous. What shall we do? Whatever has given you that idea? He stares at me all the time lately and he makes comments to the other guards, trying to get information about my comings and goings. I think we are in danger. Perhaps your movements have been too obvious? Perhaps, my Queen. But, if we eliminated the king, we would not have to worry about it and we could be together all the time.
