“No matter what would happen next, what falsehoods and impersonators may come, this was the truth of Bayal. A king, both willing and unwilling to leave, come to comfort his people, and was comforted by his people in turn. The citizens would pass on this memory, even after their king departed, to their children and their children's children. Even when the corruption of history took place, all who heard it would never forget the truth of their nation and of their king.”... “Even as his kingdom was defiled by his enemies, even as memories of him were twisted and tainted, he would never forget, and never would his people.”... “for Adonibaal had appointed wise and worthy leaders as his successors, and they helped to usher in a golden age for Bayal, with many advances well ahead of their time. But like anything good, it was not to last. The leaders began to grow lazy and indolent, forgetting the tenets of their beloved king and the means by which he came to rule. That only the strong may survive, that a place at the top must be earned through victory, and maintained through compassion. They disregarded their duties as rulers, caring only for their own luxuries and disregarding the needs of the less fortunate.”
