I nod. I told you; don't worry about it. I smile and look outside. There will come a time when a choice will have to be made. I look down; thinking of what the mirror told me. I look back at Snow. It's best if I'm vague for now. It will lead one of us in a different direction, but as promised, we will find our way back. I offer a small smile. Don't spend too much time thinking about it. A young messenger runs into the room. Sorry to interrupt your magesties; I have a message. He hands me the message and runs back the way he came. I read through it and swallow hard. It's not possible. I just saw him and he's dead. I nod and look out the window. I fold up the paper and tuck it in my pocket. I offer a weak smile. I- I clear my throat. I'm going to go check on some things. I turn on my heel and start to walk down the corridor.

Just before I could press for more information a young messenger had came up to William and I and handed him a letter. William read the letter and then he bid me farewell but with a look of pain on his face. "William?" I asked wondering what was going on. He made the move to leave when he said he had to check on something. "William wait." I said following after him. He did not stop so I quickly followed after him. "Whats wrong?" I asked thinking something has gone wrong in the palace.

My gaze is steely as I continue walking with Snow following. Don't worry about it. It's a personal matter. It's unimportant. I walk outside onto the balcony and grip the ledge with white knuckles. I remain silent for a few minutes. Snow stands there awkwardly. I turn my head slightly to look at her. My voice is tired. My best friend is dead. He was a brother to me and now he's gone. My surrogate brother's been killed. I grit my teeth. What's done is done. I'll get over it.

William had gone to the balcony and held tight onto the ledge. I didn't know what to do but when he spoke all I had felt was sorrow. "William." I breathed. I was ashamed to admit I did not know who he was talking about but he was still my friend and he needed me. I went over to him and put my hand on his back and looked up at him. "This is not unimportant, he was close to you, like we are. And if I had lost you, I would need to let out my pain and you can do that with me William." I told him. I didn't want him to hold back what he was feeling.

I take a deep breath. For your sake, I will not kill the creature that did this. Though I promise the thought will have crossed my mind. I shake my head. The murderers are being brought here now. I look down at the ground below to see the men being brought up the front steps. I open the door for Snow and she walks in. I lead her to the Throne Room. She takes her seat and I stand. With all due respect, I'd like to handle the proceedings. I promise I will keep a fair mind; I will not sentence them to death. I take a deep breath as the men are led down the corridor towards us.

I was glad William kept himself from taking a life but when he looked down and I followed, we saw the man who killed his friend was being brought to the palace. William then lead me back to the throne room. "Just be smart about your decision." I told him. "But as your Queen, if I feel you are being unjust I will have you escorted out of the throne room and I will deal him his sentence." I said.

The men approach and the guards force them to their needs. I nod and the guards back up to the edge of the room. Stand. They stand and stare at the ground. Look at me when you are spoken to. They warily meet my eyes. I step forward and look more closely. They're covered in dirt but I still recognize them. I raise my eyebrows.James and Edward Squire. I should have known. I shake my head. Of course it's them; two of the most infamous killers in all of Tabor. Have you anything to say for yourselves? Edward looks me in the eye with murder in his eyes. You're welcome. Cleaned the Earth of the slime you call your brethren; he had it coming to him. I smile-it's not a nice smile. It's an "I'm going to kill you" smile. Well, then let this be your reward. Take a break from the wonderful service you've done Tabor. I clear my throat and straighten up. Life in prison for the both of you. Apology letters to all of your victims' families to be proofed by the Reverend before they're sent. I look at Snow. Sound fair?

I saw how William was tense and really wanted to hurt them. I was proud though when he did not sentence them to life or tried to attack them, he kept his composure. "I believe it sounds fair." I said to William who seemed pleased. "But instead of writing apology letters, how about apologizing face to face with the families of their victims?" I said. "They too can decide then if our lovely Reverend should bless them before they serve their life sentence."

I clear my throat. It's an unwise decision. These men are serial killers; they won't be cordial. It might be more painful for the families to have to see these killers face-to-face. I remain silent for her sake. The men spit on the floor. Blessed? We have no religion, foolish queen. I grit my teeth and start to step forward but Snow places a hand on my back. I stop and take a deep breath and turn around to face the queen. I lean in close and whisper in her ear. My queen, these victims were brutally murdered. I believe that it would be traumatizing for the families to have to see these men again. It would bring back old memories they'd rather forget. Letters are a more subtle method; they can be burnt once read; forgotten. A face-you never forget that. I pull back and look at her for a reply.

"I understand but please give me the floor for a moment." I say and then turn to the murderers. They stood there as if they were disguted with being in the palace. "The reason I think the victims families should come and see these two men to know what pure evil looks like." I said and the men scoffed. "A lesson can only be learned when you stare it in the face and these people will learn the lesson I have from my own father. You are not allowed to take another's life." I said and then reached to cup my hand on one of the men's faces. He didn't know how to react to it and the Guards had stepped forward but I motioned them that it was alright. "I ask the Reverend to bless because it will show the true Ruler that your heart is not comepletly tainted and He will then judge you fairly because he is the only one that can truly judge." I say to these men whos faces only remained emotionless. "I pray that you two are able to apologize to these families and that there is a place for you in His heavenly kingdom."I say and then release my hand and turn back to my throne. As I take a seat I look up at William. "Whatever you wish to do now Captain is up to you, but I do hope you take my advice, if not that is alright." I say.

I nod to the guards and they take the men by their arms. Your sentencing is as the Queen declares with the exception of optional viewing rights of the murderers to the families. Give the families the option to see these prisoners. This sentence is active as of now. Thank you, gentlemen. The guards nod and lead the prisoners out. Wait. The guards stop. I take two coins out of my backpocket. Your father left these to you in his will. I apologize for not returning it sooner. I could not find either of you. I press the coins into their palms. They are engraved with their family crest. I nod and the guards lead them out. I return to the Queen's side and stand.

"I'm glad you handled that the way you did. You're going to be an excellent Captain." I smiled at William. I believe even more now that I made the rigth decision. This was going to work out well for everyone.

I smile kindly. I tease. Believe it or not, I don't take joy from killing people, Snow. I chuckle.

I smiled. "I know William, you have a pure heart." I said to him. William was a soldier and now Captain of the Guard, so I know now that he will have to take lives.
