The King opened his eyes and went out of the room. He was feeling suffocated with his feelings in his room. He had to see for himself that his beloved was dead.
He was standing inside the ice palace staring at the frozen sculpture of what used to be his love. He froze in place unable to move forward. Imagining the bright smiling face of Sly in his head made it hard to think that he was now reduced to a frozen sculpture.
He took a few weak steps forward to reach for Sly. His body was shaking from head to toe. He wanted to mourn his beloved but he needed to find out what happened.
His beloved's death had to be avenged and the murder brought to justice. He flew from the ice palace to Landon's palace. His heart was burning. All he wanted the man to tell him is that he didn't do it. He didn't kill the one person he cared for most in the world.
