Nathaniel in the meanwhile had been trying to figure out what plan of action would go along with his suggestion.

"If we warn the populace...I don't really know what we'll get out of it. Panic, most likely. But, on the other hand, if we don't warn them, when word of fake King get's out, and sooner or later it will, the people will be unprepared for when the Englasians fall upon them."

Nathaniel shook his head. "They have a good plan this time. Almost all the warriors of the kingdom died a year ago at the Battle. The barbarians have the advantage of numbers and experience."

"The only thing I can think of is that if we can expose the fake King, and save Roland if he is still alive, the Royal Guard and the Royal Army will align with us. Combined with our surviving forces in our provinces, that would give us a fighting chance against the Englasians."

Nathaniel looked back towards the castle. "Of course, if we can kill the fake king, the Englasians may break and run, just like they did a year ago."
