The castles dungeon lay buried below the village on the outskirts of the castles garden. Only the guards have access to light, and light is given as a privilege. The interior is stone and smells of mildew and deadly black mold.

thief
the king
I rule over many people. I spend my days in leisure and comfort. I don't like people that I think are below me.
Tell me where you hid it, thief! Tell me soon or make your home in the gallows! I will not! No matter how much you threaten me with your royal assassin! Blast! ... why? Why have you done his? I considered you like a son to me... And yet, you betray me! Why? Tell me why! I am a thief! It's in my blood! I cannot help change who I am anymore than you can change your royal blood. What could I have... what could I have done to make you betray your kin? Ha! I cannot believe the nerve to ask such a thing! You had my wife beheaded, and my mother hung from the gallows. Your wicked reign has gone on long enough! Your wife and mother were WITCHES, what did you expect me to do? Let them free? Let them continue their unholy work? You do not understand the position I am in as the king! WITCHES you say? You wouldn't know a witch if she turned you into a newt! You know nothing of the dark arts, and neither did they.  ... are you saying you know of the dark arts?! You've found me out! How else do you think I always get away after my thieving? I am a part of powers more than you could ever know, so let me be! You lied to me, you betrayed me, you stole from me! I thought of you as my son and I love you like I loved your mothe- oh... oh God why have you done this... Loved.... you loved my mother? YOU are my father! You disgusting beast! How dare you leave me fatherless all of my days!
