The king, Ferug and Thief strolled leisurely up an small hill as King124 indulged in conversation while listening to delightful tunes carried in warm wind.

"[i]Me and my loyal castle are from a base far to south of here, maybe it was south? Magnetic rust storms made it quite difficult to ascertain. So I would not call it outside, that base contained coordinates leading to enormous source of power and we are on a journey to add its wealth for my royal treasury![/i]

As they reached hilltop the music stopped, base was about an mile away but enhanced vision granted all three view of a gruesome fight. Heavy demolition type was grappling an sleek largish battle robot, roaring with telltale signs of beastdom.

"[i]FERUG! Stay here with our honored guest and prepare repair nanites! Our sweet minstrel is being torn apart by ravenous wolves at our kingdoms door! FOR HONOR! CHAAARGE![/i]"

King124 deployed both blades in combat position and took off full speed down the hill, his bodyguard functions unknown to him, speeding up his stride. Wishing he would be there in time, wishing he was built faster by the pompous masters who paraded his divine regality around like it was theirs to own.

Midway down he saw demolition type smash her enemy trough a wall into darkness of that forsaken base.

"[i]If only I had loyal subjects already within that base![/i]"
