Vcoderz Community - silent assassin part 2

First of all: Sorry the threads are long, it is not intended, if it was I would have elaborated on describing stuff :hawhaw: but with 16 registered members, I really didn’t have much choice. and I still couldn't include everyone even with that :Tawa:
Having said that, I can promise you, it’s a nice story.

And so the king was given a lavishing burial worthy of his days of reigning. And going by the king’s official will, Edgard was crowned as king of France. However Edgard still lived in the fear of his secret being exposed, mainly by his mom queen Jess, the others can be disposed off easily if they say anything, he can just hang them for treason against the king and accuse them of lying. But his mom is royalty, she’s the queen, it won’t be that simple with her. So he had to make sure she stays quiet. Edgard ordered the guards to arrest Jess for murdering the king (although she didn’t do it) and gave strict instructions to the guards that she should not be harmed, and that no visitors are allowed at all. So jess was arrested and taken to the deep dungeons of the palace. Afterwards Edgard sat on his throne (unregistered is always there by his side) and started planning for his wedding with “the princess” while doing so he had a number of visits. The first visitor was Jak, he went in to try and take the king’s blessing to marry Black_ice (since the last king never approved on that) edgard as usual with his sloppy words replied:” yeah man, do whatever you like, don’t care” and so jak left the throne room excited and rushed to tell Black_ice the good news. After that Tony(minister of war), Alias(the musketeer general) deAtheganized(treasurer) and Neoxter (navy commander) walked in the room together. And so Tony says:” my lord, we need to continue working on that war strategy against the British in the north American continent, you father God rest his soul left most of it unfinished”
Edgard replies:” bah forget about wars, why can’t we all just get along :hawhaw: just let them have all of north America, I don’t care, it’s a dumb frozen desert anyway, why should we care? Just send over an ambassador to negotiate peace and leave me be”
Tony: but my lord, we have prisoners there, the French monarchy has invested in a lot of towns and colonies there, the work of your ancestors is in peril!”
So edgard here raises his voice:” it’s a lost cause! If I hear about this again you will be in peril, now leave me alone”
So the 4 of them( Tony, Alias, deAtheganized and Neoxter) left the throne room and each went his way. deAtheganized was happy, no more war means the funds he took from the treasury will be unnoticed. Neoxter was happy, he was finally getting his retirement from the sea after a lifetime of duty. However Alias and Tony were not, they were still walking together(these 2) mumbling stuff to each others:
Tony: you know what he will sign is the surrender of france
Alias: and he is not even the rightful heir, Sogelec would not have done that
Tony: well yeah but what can we do about it?
And then the 2 of them split, Alias decides he must see sogelec, tell him the whole thing. And so he does, he spots Sogelec near the water fountain outside:
Alias: lord Sogelec, I must speak to you, the fate of the kingdom is in jeopardy, your brother wants to sign the surrender of France to the British.
Sogelec got a bit shocked for hearing that, but then he said:
- well he is the king, we should not get in the way of his decisions, it was my father’s will after all
- no it was not, shortly before he died, he learned that Edgard is not his real son, you are, he was going to remove him but then the unfortunate happened

at that Sogelec got angry:” how can you say these things?! My mother is a faithful loving woman, I refuse to have her disrespected."
-it seems you don’t know do you? Edgard had your mother arrested for murder and has forbidden anyone from seeing her. Why do you suppose he did that? Talk to your mother, when you get back to your real senses, remember what I will say now. When the generals learn that the king is gonna surrender this way, they will surely get upset. This will allow you to rally some of them to your side and overthrow the king by force
-but what about the musketeers?
-don’t worry I can keep them out of your way, now go, find your mother, he is keeping her in a dungeon below the palace.
And so Sogelec goes down to the dungeon area to the cell where his mother is, she was being heavily guarded. One of the guards approaches Sogelec:” I’m sorry my prince but king’s orders no visitors allowed”
Sogelec withdraws his sword:” open the door right now or I will have your head”
-I’m sorry but I can’t do that
-well you’re going to either do that or need to kill me because I’m not leaving, is a small rank guard like you going to risk killing a prince? They will have you crucified
At that the guard panics and openes the door, there Sogelec finds jess heartbroken and sad: “ mother, did they hurt you?
-I was sent to prison by my own son, can it be anymore hurtful? And then jess starts crying
(Sogelec)-but why did he do this
And so jess tells him the whole story, confirming what Alias had said. Sogelec leaves his mother determined to pull off that revolution, but he needed to see Crystal soul first, so much has happened, he needs to tell her
So they decide to meet at night at their usual place, by the lake(their relationship has always been a secret to everyone, perhaps that I did not clarify in the first thread). Sogelec explains to her about what Alias said and the revolution he wants to pull and Crystal soul replies:
-what? and you believed him? He might have just been lying to you.
- my mother confirmed it(lowers his head in regret) he had her locked up in the cellars of his castle
- I don’t know… but you know peace with the English is not necessarly a bad thing. I’m only afraid that you might get killed or caught(she starts crying) you don’t need to do this, lets just run away, this is what you have always asked from me, now I am asking you ,lets just leave it all behind
-it’s not about personal motives, you know me I don’t care about power, but it is not my right to forfeit the throne, France is being lead to its doom by someone who is not supposed to lead anyway. And if I make it, I can finaly give you the life you deserve, as a queen by my side, don’t cry please, I need your support in these hard times and I promise we will be ok.

Sogelec walks away, Crystal soul continues talking to herself:” we will never be ok, if I become the queen the English will expose me just to have me killed, but I can’t tell him that, I would rather die than see the hatred in his eyes. I should report to General lebnen, I am sure they’re going to try and fail his revolution, maybe then he might run away with me… but what if they(the English agents) get him killed? Bad idea, what should I do? I can't imagine my life is something happenes to Sogelec.

The next morning, screams are heard from one of the palace’s bedrooms, one of the palace’s servants found jak, dead in his room, it seems he was viciously attacked and murdered, his body is filled with cuts and covered in a pool of his blood…

I did not reveal the clues of the first thread, because that will only confuse you believe it or not :hawhaw:
I will reveal it all in the last thread. The Last thread will be either the coming thread or the one after, depends on how long it takes for my imagination to fail me and depends on how much your choice of killing is going to give me maneuverability
You have 48 hours
Poll will not be public, I felt it was better to keep it hidden, it added more excitement, and unlike past threads, members cannot go asking one another not to vote for them, you’ll never know :p
Jess was eliminated because she was your choice
Jak was murdered by the assassin
I’m gonna retire silent assassin when this ends :p
